date

Queue Date (as displayed with –L flag) of the specific job to add,
delete, change or show. Use this option if JobID appears multiple
times in the queue to indicate the specific occurrence of the job.

Details:

This command provides all of the functions of adding jobs, manipulating, and displaying jobs in
a backup queue. This command is particularly useful to administrators that must access the
administrator system remotely in order to handle a backup job that failed and cannot use the
SBAdmin GUI or Web Interface.

Use the –L option to list all queues. This will show the current status of each job, whether
currently running, pending, on hold, or failed.

All options except –L require a JobID. When a JobID is specified, the queue name
(server:device) is retrieved from the configured job information.
