public static final JobState EXECUTING

Indicates the job is executing.

ACTIVE

public static final JobState ACTIVE

An Asynchronous Job is waiting to complete.

Indicates job has completed.

EXCEPTION

public static final JobState EXCEPTION

Indicates an exception has occurred. This is generally recoverable. Such as database failure, disk full etc.

DESTROYED
