Analysis Job Monitor Form

Use the Analysis Job Monitor form to check the status of a background analysis job, monitor its output, suspend it, change its execution priority, or stop it.

The following table describes the fields available in the Analysis Job Monitor form.

Field Description

Show Run Log

Displays the run log (si.log) for the selected jobs in a new window.

Set Priority

Displays the Set Priority form that lets you change the priority of the selected jobs.

Unless you have root access privilege, you cannot lower the priority of a job once it is started. You can only decrease the priority of a job. For example, to decrease the priority of a job set at 10, change it to 12. This slows down the background job and increases the speed of the Cadence graphics shell.

Kill

Terminates the selected jobs.

If you kill a job, you cannot continue it with the Continue command.

Suspend

Suspends the selected jobs.

Continue

Resumes the jobs that you suspended using the Suspend command.

Remove Entry

Removes the selected jobs from the Analysis Job Monitor form but does not terminate them.

As a result, you can no longer change their priorities or kill them. You can still see output from these simulations with the Show Run Log command if you first initialize the environment and specify their simulation run directories.
