Viewing and Controlling Gaussian Jobs
The Job Manager dialog (shown
below); the button on the
toolbar performs the same function: . Note that GaussView 6 also includes a
more sophisticated facility for managing calculations: the SC Job Manager.
This window displays all the jobs started by GaussView that are currently running. Note that only jobs started during the current session of GaussView are displayed. Examples of jobs that may be displayed are Gaussian jobs submitted from the Gaussian dialog box, Gaussian input file edit sessions launched from GaussView, CubeGen processes for building surfaces for display, FreqChk processes to generate vibrational analysis data, and/or processes from other Gaussian utilities.
The Current Jobs Dialog
This dialog allows you to view and control Gaussian jobs as well as jobs running Gaussian utilities like CubeGen. You can terminate a job, using the
button.Clicking on the
button displays the current GaussView job log containing system messages associated with the execution of GaussView external processes. The button in the resulting window removes old jobs from the job list, and the button dismisses the job list window.Note that the
button does not display the log file associated with a running Gaussian job. The latter is accomplished by the button for Gaussian calculations. This can also be accessed by the menu path. Note that selecting this button for job types (e.g., cube generation jobs) will display whatever file GaussView can find that is associated with the job (often the Gaussian input file).
