Jobs Overview

Jobs in Juniper Security Director Cloud are actions that are performed on objects under its management, such as devices, services, or users. Juniper Security Director Cloud keeps a record of the status for all executed jobs. Each job receives a distinctive ID when it starts, providing a way to track and identify each job along with its type.

Juniper Security Director Cloud supports the following job types which you can execute immediately or later:

  • Device management—Device onboarding, license installation, security package installation, security certificate import and installation, software image upgradation, and device deletion.

  • Firewall—Automatic import, manual import, preview, deployment, and deletion.

  • NAT—Automatic import, manual import, preview, deployment, and deletion.

  • IPsec VPN—Import, preview, deployment, and deletion.

  • Active Directory—Preview and deployment.

  • JIMS profiles—Preview and deployment.

  • Access profiles—Preview and deployment.

  • User role—Creation.

  • Subscriptions—Addition and deletion.

  • Policy hits.

You can track the progress of your completed and scheduled jobs, view the details of jobs you started, restart your failed jobs, and cancel your jobs. If your user account is assigned the Super Administrator or Job Administrator role, you can view all jobs of all users. To access the Jobs page, click Administration > Jobs.

Use this page to view jobs and cancel scheduled jobs. You can retry jobs that failed. You can filter and sort the jobs displayed, and view details of each job.
