# Object Replication: Managing a Job

## Reviewing the Replication Job Listing

Each job is listed with:

- **Name** of the replication job
- **Destination** bucket to which objects will be copied
- **Cross Account** indication (No) that the replication job is for objects in the same account or (Yes) that the replication job is for objects across different accounts.
- **Sync Deleted Objects** indication that this option was (Yes) or was not (No) selected when creating the job
- **Last Replicated** date/time when objects were last replicated
- **Count**, which is the number of objects replicated on the **Last Replicated** date
- **Replication Size**, which shows the total size of the objects last replicated
- **Filters**, which indicates a prefix and/or object tag filter was (Yes) or was not (No) specified when creating the job
- **Status**, which will be ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-1718816019760.png) or ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/image-1699640407823.png)
- **Action**, which offers a menu ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/actions-ellipsis.png) with options to **View/Edit**, **Pause or Resume**, or **Delete** the replication job.

The following is a sample of an actively running replication job. In this case, the last replication occurred on Nov 10, 2023, and 31 objects (totaling 2.47 MB) were replicated to widget-components-project (the destination bucket).

If you have a long list of replication jobs, use the list options to display all jobs, only jobs that are running, or only paused jobs:

4. If you make changes, click **Save**. Otherwise, click **Cancel** to return to the jobs list.

Changes made will apply only to new objects that are added to the source bucket.

## Pausing or Resuming a Replication Job

To pause a job:

1. Click ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/actions-ellipsis.png) for the replication job that you want to pause.
2. Select **Pause**.
3. Click **Pause** to confirm that you no longer want to replicate objects.

1. Click ![](https://cdn.document360.io/bef0a1ea-7768-4d5a-b520-c4fe2f7fafad/Images/Documentation/actions-ellipsis.png) for the replication job that you want to resume.
2. Select **Resume**.
3. Click **Resume** to confirm that you want to replicate objects again.

## Email Reporting of Object Replication Jobs

You can enable a feature to [receive email notifications](https://docs.wasabi.com/v1/docs/replication-notifications#receiving-email-notifications-of-your-object-replication-jobs) for your replication jobs:

- Existing objects have begun replicating (batch replication only)
- Existing objects have finished replicating (batch replication only)
- Existing objects have failed to replicate (batch replication only)
- New object replication failures (live replication only)
