| # Job management introduction You can use job management in LN to schedule jobs based on your organizational requirements. For example, you can schedule jobs at non-peak hours to improve the overall system performance in a heavily loaded environment. A job consists of one or more sessions or shell commands, or both, that run without user interaction. The sessions and shell commands in a job can be started while you are not logged on to LN. You can schedule jobs to start processes periodically, at a defined interval, or immediately. Typically, you use LN job management for print and processing sessions.
