Searching for a Job
Final Cut Server uses jobs to perform actions like uploading, downloading, and transcoding
files. You can search for a specific job that is running or has been run on Final Cut Server
using the Search All Jobs window.
The number of jobs that run depends on the type of action being performed. Some
examples of jobs include:
• Copying a file from one location to another runs one job.
• Creating a new asset runs jobs to perform the initial copy and then creates the asset.
• Analyzing an asset uses multiple jobs to create the asset’s proxy files.
Each job creates multiple log entries for each step of the operation.
If you want to monitor the Final Cut Server jobs that are being performed, you can open
the Jobs window. In it, you can search for specific jobs and then see the job’s details.
To search for a specific job or jobs
1 Choose Search All Jobs from the Server pop-up menu (the pop-up menu in the
Final Cut Server main window that appears when you click the Server button).
The Search All Jobs window appears.
