All jobs have properties that determine how job log files are managed. The factory default setting is Centrally Managed Logging. This means that the location and name of the log file is completely left to ActiveBatch. You can specify how long to keep these log files using a custom retention period – once it has been met, they can either be deleted or archived.
The properties in question can be found on the job's Execution tab. With the Centrally Managed Log File radio button selected, you can then specify a log retention period. The retention period cannot exceed how long you keep the job instances (found in Completion properties) since logs are associated with instances.
If the factory default log retention period is not suited for your organization, we would recommend you create a default job policy to modify the default value for this property. This way, ActiveBatch job authors don’t have to set or override the factory default values themselves. This is a great time saver, reduces errors, and sets company standards. You can also use the default policy feature to "push down" a policy to existing child objects with the container, overriding whatever existing value exists. A default job policy can be set on any ActiveBatch folder or plan, or the root-level Job Scheduler object by right-clicking it in the Object Navigation Pane and selecting Policy > Defaults.

How to hold schedules of all the jobs ?Is it possible to schedules of all jobs on folder level and release them manually? This is very useful when our source systems are under maintenance and JAMS is not trying to run any of these jobs resulting in failures.

Hi Rajesh,
This is attainable by creating a maintenance window in JAMS. Please see the following KB: https://support.jamsscheduler.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003331151-Creating-a-Maintenance-Window-in-JAMS
If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out to JAMS Support at support.jamsscheduler.com.
