Running Large Jobs

If space permits, large jobs will be run at any time. Otherwise, system rundowns will be implemented as required in order to run such jobs at selected times - currently these times are Tuesday and Thursday evenings and at weekends. The exact times for such jobs to be run is not fixed - they will depend on the job profiles in the system at the time.

Note

These limits are subject to change for special projects or urgent work, by agreement. For urgent jobs or jobs outside these limits please contact the CSAR Helpdesk.
