   • IIS – Start FTP Service
   • IIS – Stop FTP Service
3. In the General tab of the Create <Job Type> page, provide a name for the job and add the individual targets or one composite target such as a Group.

   Note: If you are editing a job, then modify the job name and the selected targets.

4. In the Parameters tab of the Create <Job Type> page, from the Options menu, select an appropriate option to make the job function according when it starts.

   You can select one of these options as shown in the following table.
