If you are running distributed make (dmake in any mode), you can use the Dmake Jobs Graph Window to monitor the progress of the dmake run and to view the state of each build job.

To examine multiple build jobs when running dmake:

1. Open the Jobs Graph window by choosing View Dmake Jobs Graph from the Building window.

2. Observe the graph in the graph pane.

Build jobs are graphed in clusters per server. The graph shows the length of time each build takes. Each job is indicated in the graph by a line: the appearance of the line indicates whether the build is in progress (series of dots), has completed (solid), or failed (broken line segments).

3. Select a segment of one of the jobs in the graph to see its build output in the display pane at the bottom of the window.
