2.4 .JOB File Format

  • Article

A .JOB file specifies task configuration. Clients that use the SASec interface create the .JOB file and write it to the server by using a remote file system protocol, as specified in section 3.1.4.2.2. Clients read .JOB files from the server as specified in section 3.1.4.2.5.

A .JOB file consists of two main sections, fixed-length (section 2.4.1) and variable-length (section 2.4.2).

All fields in the .JOB file format MUST use little-endian byte ordering unless otherwise stated. All extra padding bytes are a value of zero unless otherwise stated and all are ignored upon receipt.
