When the jobs do not finish, did you check whether there are some outstanding alerts that need to be responded to?

Cheers, I just read that somewhere else. I just cancelled the job,but i'll check next time that happens.

From Tools - Options - Preferences, choose the option to automatically display new alerts...this way, the alerts are generated automatically & you would'nt need to view the Alerts tab.

Hi,

So I have accepted the alerts but it still doesn't finish?

Any more ideas?

Cheers,

M

What are the alerts which are generated by the job?  In addition to responding to them, some alerts needs a physical action like replacing a tape.

I don't think I have to do anything.

here the alerts from the last coupole of hours
