The directory/job command

The directory/job command allows you to create a line display of certain fields of the schedule or the full display.

The full display mode is used to display all the information about a single job by using the qualifier /full, in the format:

C:\> schedule directory/job job_name /full

For example listing out all the attributes of one of the demonstration jobs use the following command.

C:\> schedule dir/full \demo\a\start

\demo\a\start

The line display mode can be used to display any of the fields associated with a job definition. You can show one or more columns of information about job definitions by specifying a qualifier or series of qualifiers for the schedule directory command, in the format:

C:\> schedule directory/job job_name /qualifiers

The job name can include wildcard characters. There is a complete list of qualifiers in the Reference Section. The qualifiers you will most likely want to use are listed in the following table.
