Jobs¶
On this page
This page lets you manage Backup jobs and Backup resources for each group. The top part of the page displays Active Jobs and the bottom part displays Stopped Jobs. The following fields on the page have a yellow background if delayed:
- Last Agent Conf, if older than 1 hour.
- Last Oplog, if older than 1 hour before the Last Agent Conf.
- Head Time, if older than 1 hour before Last Oplog.
- Last Snapshot, if older than the snapshot interval multiplied by 1.5.

View a job’s log. | Click the name of the job and then click the Logs link. Contact MongoDB Support if you need help interpreting the error message. |

Manage Backup Resources¶
From the Jobs page, you can assign backup resources to a particular group.
You can make these changes for existing backups, but only new backup jobs will follow the new rules. Making these changes does not affect existing deployments. For additional procedural information, see Move Jobs from a Lost Backup Daemon to another Backup Daemon.
