Default Job Log Disposition

Job log disposition settings specify what is to be done with the job log after a job is run, and under what circumstances the specified disposition will occur. Job log disposition settings can be specified on a process basis or you can specify default job log disposition settings, which will apply to all job logs.

Note: After you specify job log disposition settings for a process, be sure to specify a schedule for the Custodian and enable it, as the Custodian is responsible for implementing the disposition settings. If you do not specify a schedule for the Custodian, the disposition settings will not be implemented.
