Making an upgrade job inactive

About making jobs inactive

To prevent a job from being run at all, you can make the job inactive. For example, you may want to inactivate a job when the associated upgrade offer is no longer valid.

When you make a job inactive, any scheduled runs are canceled.

You also have the option to remove the marking from entitlements or machines or registration certificates.
