Abstract: A graphical user interface for monitoring a job executing on a remote host system from a local workstation by displaying a tree view of the system, a queue within the system, a job within the queue, and a file related to the job. The graphical user interface displays the tree view; displays a first level of the tree, the first level comprising one or more system nodes, each system node representing a host system; displays a second level of the tree, the second level comprising one or more job queue nodes, each job queue node branching below a system node representing a job queue in the host system corresponding to the system node; and displays a third level of the tree, the third level comprising one or more job nodes, each job node branching below a job queue node representing a job in the job queue corresponding to the job queue node.
