When you select a job, you can edit or delete it, or you can create a new job by
copying the selected job.

If you click a job, you can view the properties of the selected job (Figure 11-6).
Figure 11-6 Job Properties page
Under the General tab, you can view the status of the job and other general
properties. The Targets tab shows the specified managed system(s) or Virtual
Server(s) to which the job is assigned. The History tab shows when the specified
job has been run and with which status. The Logs tab shows a detailed output of
the job.
Figure 11-7 shows the output of a successful backup of the profile data.

11.3 Automation Manager
If you select the Automation Manager on the main Manage tab, you get an
overview over the jobs (scheduled, completed, and failed) in the last 30 days.
You see the three next jobs that will be running and you see the three most
recent jobs, as shown in Figure 11-8.
Figure 11-8 Automation Manager
From within the Automation Manager, you can go to the Active and scheduled
Jobs task, from where you can manage the jobs, as described in 11.2, “Editing,
deleting, and copying, and viewing the properties of a scheduled operation” on
page 294.

High availability and
redundancy
Implementing IBM Systems Director Management Console (SDMC) in a high
availability (HA) or a redundant setup can provide improved serviceability to the
SDMC appliance and provides backup to the system in case of a disaster.

12.1 Systems Director Management Console High
Availability versus redundant setup
Users familiar with the redundant HMC setup in their Power Systems
environment can use the same setup in SDMC, as multiple SDMCs can connect
to and actively manage a single managed server.
Users can also implement SDMC High Availability, which provides active/passive
failover capability, with one active SDMC and one passive SDMC on standby to
take over in case of failure. Figure 12-1 shows both options for SDMC High
Availability and redundancy.

In addition to providing the management capabilities currently in the HMC for the
managed Power System servers, the SDMC also can manage the operating
systems of the servers themselves by connecting to the Common Agent
Services (CAS) agent on the managed systems through an agent manager.
However, the CAS agent is limited to a single connection to an agent manager
and is not capable of a redundant connection. Therefore, the SDMC High
Availability feature is provided to eliminate this single point of failure for users
that require high availability for this functionality.
The choice between a redundant setup versus an active/passive High Availability
implementation depends on your planned usage of the SDMC:
In an environment where the SDMC is used for HMC-like management
functionality, the redundant setup provides the most availability and is the
easiest to set up and administrate. Both SDMCs are active and can continue
to provide functions for the managed systems should one of them fail. The
setup of a redundant SDMC environment only involves adding the managed
system to both SDMCs.
