Jobs

Each unit of work in Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) is tracked as a job. These jobs are created as you take actions on objects managed by VMM. For example, creating a virtual machine is a single job. Stopping or starting that same virtual machine is also a job that can be monitored, canceled, or restarted. Jobs are displayed in Jobs view, and can be searched, sorted, filtered, and grouped.
