# Accessing the execution task list

## Procedure

In the Menu tree view, click Job Conductor to display the list of scheduled tasks that will deploy and execute Jobs on a remote server.

When you access this list for the first time, no task shows on the list.

You can customize the number of tasks per page by changing the count in the field next to the Last Page button. It is recommended to keep this count as low as you can keep in your scenario, to reduce the load of Tomcat.

The default Job Conductor page provides the following information:

| Column label | Description |
| --- | --- |
| State | Priority among tasks that are not yet executed. Status<br>can be: awaiting execution or<br>frozen exec:<br><br><ul> <li>The <span>frozen exec</span> state                                                  requires a manual resume operation.</li> <li>If the threshold for simultaneous executions is                                                  exceeded (by default more than 20&nbsp;executions at                                                  the time), all simultaneous executions above the                                                  threshold will have the status <span>awaiting                                                  execution</span>. </li> </ul><br><br>To reset the threshold according to your needs, look for<br>quartz.properties in the<br>installation folders of Talend Administration Center and change<br>the threshold accordingly in the following parameter:<br>org.quartz.threadPool.threadCount =<br>20 |
