Hi Lee,

What I always recommend in this case is to temporarily not use the
"PoolUncopiedJobs" option, and instead use the SQL option, and set up
something like this:

----8<----
Selection Type = SQLQuery
Selection Pattern = "SELECT JobId FROM Job WHERE Type='B' AND JobStatus='T'
AND JobId BETWEEN 'x' AND 'y' ORDER BY JobId ASC;"
----8<----

Then you can do the copy jobs in batches.

Later, once you have copied all the jobs, you can revert to the
"PoolUncopiedJobs" method.


Best regards,

Bill
