Environment

NetIQ AppManager 6.x

Situation

How do I copy jobs that are running on one group of servers to a new server in that group, without creating them manually?

Resolution

In order to copy the jobs running on a group of servers to a new server in that group, please perform the following steps:

  1. Launch the Operator Console.
  2. Right-click on the parent job that you want to add a new job to (the new job would be for the new server).
  3. Select the Add Job? option.
  4. In the Add Children Jobs window, check the server you want to add this job to, and uncheck all other servers on the list including the server(s) that are already running this job.
  5. Click OK.

Performing the above steps will create the new job under the parent which will immediately attempt to start itself.
