Designer has a job scheduling utility to schedule events. Through this utility, the system can be set to disable an account on a specific day, or to initiate a workflow to request an extension for a person’s access to a corporate resource. Designer’s job scheduler contains the same functionality as the job scheduler found in iManager. For information on creating jobs, see Section 15.2, Creating a Job.
In the Outline view, right-click the Job icon, then select Properties.
You have one selection under the General heading: Policy Name. You can change the job’s name by modifying the name that appears in the Policy Name entry, then clicking OK.
Through the Modeler, you can add a trace level to your jobs. With the trace level set, DS Trace displays the Identity Manager events as the engine processes the events. The trace level only affects the driver where it is set.
IMPORTANT:You should use the trace level only for testing or for troubleshooting driver issues. Setting a driver trace level on a production driver can cause Identity Manager server to process events slowly.

Field |
Description |
|---|---|
|
Trace level |
As the job trace level increases, the amount of information displayed in DS Trace increases. Trace level 1 shows errors, but not the cause of the errors. To see password synchronization information, set the trace level to 5. |
|
Trace file |
Specify a filename and location where the Identity Manager information is written for the selected driver. When a value is set in this field, all Java information for the job is written to file. As long as the file is specified, Java information is written to this file. If you do not need to debug Java, leave this field blank. |
|
Trace File Encoding |
The trace file uses the system’s default encoding. You can specify another encoding if desired. |
|
Trace file size limit |
Allows you to set a limit for the Java trace file. If you set the file size to Unlimited, the file grows in size until no disk space is available. NOTE:The trace file is created in multiple files. Identity Manager automatically divides the maximum file size by ten and creates ten separate files. The combined size of these files equals the maximum trace file size. |
|
Trace name |
Helps you track job trace messages. The name that you specify here appears with the job trace messages. |
