Multi instance job logs

[dhiraj]

Hello,
I have the same requirement and is clearing of the status file a safe option to do. Is there some thing that i should be aware of. Also should we clear the status file? can i not delete it?

Chris,
How much did the enhancement from ascential cost you? just curious?

Thanks
Dhiraj

Enhancement requests to Ascential do not cost anything! But maybe I'm wrong and that's why my enhancement requests never get included

This is a batch job. Not a routine. You will need to disconnect Director from the project to refresh the list of jobs. I in NO way recommend doing this.

I fixed this code. It does work but still I do not recommend it. I would change it to delete only old records if I was going to use this.
