About the Load Job Viewer

The Load Job Viewer shows the details of both the current load job and previous load jobs for a selected physical schema in a given tenant. The load job can be for the whole physical schema or a specific entity object in the physical schema.

Important

The Load Job Viewer only shows the status of a load job from the perspective of the Loader Service, not the Analytics Service. This change from previous releases means that the Load Job Viewer no longer waits for the Analytics Service to report the successful load of performance optimized entity objects into memory. For this reason, in certain cases, the Load Job Viewer may report the successful status of a load job, but a dashboard insight that references the successfully loaded physical schema will show the message: The data is being refreshed. This means that the Analytics Service is still loading into memory the related performance optimized objects required by the insight query.

Load Job Viewer Access Rights

A user that belongs to a group with the Schema Manager or SuperRole role can access the Load Job Viewer for a physical schema that this user owns or has access rights to. A user that belongs to a group with the SuperRole role or a Super User that is a Tenant Administrator can also access the Load Job Viewer for any physical schema in the tenant regardless of the access rights to the physical schemas in the case that the tenant configuration enables the Super User Mode.

Access the Load Job Viewer

There are three ways to access the Load Job Viewer:

  • In the Schema Manager, in the List View, for a physical schema with a Load Status other than No Data Loaded, select the Last Load link.
  • In the Schema Designer for a given physical schema, in the Summary section, in Last Load Status, select the link:

Jobs list view

The Jobs list view is a summarized table of all load jobs for the given physical schema. For the selected load job summary, the Job details section contains all the load details for each and every entity object in the load job, as applicable. By default, jobs are sorted by the Start Time in descending order: from the newest to the oldest. You can filter the load jobs by status.

The following table shows the details that the Jobs list view includes for each load job summary:

ColumnDescriptionComment
ServiceThe Loader Service related to the load jobStarting with release 4.9, the Load Job Viewer only shows the status of a load job from the perspective of the Loader Service, not the Analytics Service
Start TimeThe start date and time of the load jobUsed to sort the jobs list in descending order
End TimeThe end date and time of the load job
Load StatusThe status of the load job. The statuses are:
  ●  Succeeded
  ●  Finished With Errors
  ●  Failed
  ●  Interrupted
  ●  Running
  ●  In Queue
In the case of a running job, the Load Status column shows the current state or phase of the load job. The available states are:
  ●  In Queue
  ●  Extraction
  ●  Enrichment
  ●  Load
  ●  Post-load
When you hover over the Load Status, a tooltip appears to detail the durations of parallelized activities and states within a load job. A check mark or a cross mark next to the state denotes if the activity completed successfully or failed, respectively.
DurationThe time taken to complete the load job, regardless of its final statusA given Loader Service executes many load job activities in parallel. As a result, the Load Status tooltip depicts activity durations that, when aggregated, are typically greater than the overall duration of the load job itself.

Page controls

The Jobs list view shows 20 jobs at a time. For lists with more than 20 jobs, the view contains page controls. The page controls allow you to navigate forwards or backwards as well as to the first page or to the last page of jobs.

Job Details section

For the selected load job summary, the Job Details section contains all the extraction and load details for each and every physical schema entity object in the load job. You can sort the list by any column either in ascending or descending order. You can also filter the list by object name or load status.

Note

An alias is not and cannot be included in a load job. Thus, you cannot find one in the Job Details section

The Job Load Details table shows the following sortable columns:

  ●  In Queue
  ●  Extracting
  ●  Enriching
  ●  Loading
  ●  Post-loading

A tooltip for the object load status details the durations of parallelized activities and states within the extraction and load phases of a object load as follows:
