> ### Creating and scheduling Fathom jobs

> As you monitor resources with Fathom, you can define tasks for execution at intervals you determine. Each task is known as a job.

> Fathom supports three kinds of jobs:

> - Custom job — A task that you define for execution at a scheduled interval.
> - Job template — A set of default values that you use when creating a job instance.
> - Predefined database maintenance job template — A tailored template that performs a maintenance activity for an OpenEdge database.
