Specifying Job Log Disposition Settings for a Process

Job log disposition settings specify what to do with the job log after the job is finished, 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.
