Viewing job status

The Job Status page displays the job name, the last date the job was run, and the job status.

To view the status of a copy job
•
On the Job Summary page, click Job Status.
By default, the Job Status page updates every 60 seconds. You can adjust the refresh rate or manually refresh the page by clicking Refresh.

Viewing logs and reports

For each job run, Secure Copy automatically creates a log file (*.scl), which is stored in the Quest\Secure Copy 7\Logs folder. The file name contains the date and time that the job was run.

To view logs and reports
1
Click Logs and Reports.

NOTE: The Repository box displays the default location for log files. To choose a different Repository, click Select, and then choose a folder.
NOTE: For best performance, the repository should be stored locally. Data is written frequently to log files during Secure Copy jobs, and that data is accessed when reports are generated. Placing the Logs and Reports repository on a network path can negatively impact application performance.
NOTE: To change the default location for log files, choose Tools | Preferences | Logging Settings. See Setting logging settings.
