Configure Platform dialog box – Generic layer mode

This mode is activated in the Configure Platform dialog box when the generic Platform layer is activated in the Platform view.

In this mode, you can specify how and when to generate job status reports. See the Status Messenger documentation for more information about job status reports.

You can also specify whether the job deletion thread for the runtime repository should delete successful/failed jobs in the runtime repository. Note that the scheduling of the job deletion thread is configured in repositorymanager.xml. The settings in this dialog box only specify a time after which the job deletion thread is allowed to delete jobs.
