• Check the status of a grid and its activity, including the number of agents working and available, processing power in use and available, and the number of jobs running and pending.
• Add or remove controllers and grids to manage.
• See a list of agents in a grid and the CPU power available and in use for each agent.
• Add or remove agents in a grid.
• See a list of jobs in a grid, the date and time each job was submitted, its progress, and the active CPU power for the job.
• Remove jobs in a grid.
• Stop a job in progress.
• Restart a job that was stopped or is complete.

Xgrid Admin provides controls in its graphical interface and menu commands for all of its options.

Note: You can also use the Xgrid command-line tool to perform all of these management tasks. See Submitting a Job to the Grid for more information about using the command-line tool.
