Job status

The following table shows the possible status that your job might have.

Table 1. Job status
Status	Description
Pending	The job is accepted by the system, but one or more of the instances of the job are not yet created. This status includes time before a job is scheduled and time that is spent downloading images over the network, which might take a while.
Running	The job instances are created. At least one instance is still running, or is starting or restarting.
Succeeded	All job instances finished successfully and none are restarting.
Failed	All job instances finished, and at least one instance ended in failure. That is, the instance either exited with nonzero status or was terminated by the system.
Unknown	For some reason, the state of the job cannot be obtained, typically due to an error in communicating with the host.
