JobScheduler Managed Jobs
The Managed Jobs PHP Web Interface is essentially only an additional possibility to configure the JobScheduler objects (jobs, job chains, orders, ...).
There is no need for the Managed Jobs PHP Web Interface and <span style="color:crimson">it will also no longer being developed</span>.
We recommend the Job Scheduler Object Editor (JOE) to configure the objects (./bin/jobeditor.(sh|cmd)).
{*}For monitoring and operating you have an OperationsGUI via
http://[scheduler_host]:[scheduler_port]
(e.g.
http://localhost:4444
).{*}
