These are mainly intended to be used to provide a convenient link to job documentation.

Such links can be added in (JOE - JobScheduler Object Editor) HTTP addresses can be added to job titles in JOE as shown in the screenshot below, which shows a simple HTTP link:

JOC will now show the following title for the job:Image Added

Example 2: Links to documentation within the SCHEDULER_DATA directory

JOC knows a virtual directory ./scheduler_data/jobs, which points to the jobs folder in the JobScheduler's working directory. JOC will automatically link to files in this folder.

1. Custom Documentation Files
   JOC will link to custom documentation files in a sub-directory the jobs folder.
   The following example shows the XML code to link to a test1.html file in a my_job_descriptions subfolder.

   Code Block
   language xml
   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <job title="test <a href="./scheduler_data/jobs/my_job_descriptions/test1.html">docu</a>" stop_on_error="yes" order="no"> <script language="shell"><![CDATA[ env # "Print the environment" ]]></script> </job>

2. JITL Job Documentation Files
   Copies of the documentation of all JITL jobs are provided in the ./scheduler_data/jobs, and the following code will link to the documentation of the JobSchedulerCheckRunHistory job:

   Code Block
   language xml
   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <job title="test <a href="./scheduler_data/jobs/JobSchedulerCheckRunHistory.xml">JobSchedulerCheckRunHistory</a>" stop_on_error="yes" order="no"> <script language="shell"><![CDATA[ ... ]]></script> </job>
