Had a couple of artists mentioning that the tick box within Deadline Monitor options has no effect.
Although it does not appear to be mentioned in the documentation, the Monitor needs to be restarted for this change to take effect. Can you try changing the setting, restarting the Monitor, and see if it has taken effect?
Just asked the guys here, sadly restarting Monitor doesn’t make this take effect.

Hey Jamie,
I just tested this here with 9.0.0.16 (released a few minutes ago), and it’s working as expected.
Note that this only impacts jobs that have a Batch Name set, and they are the only job in the queue with that Batch name.
If a job doesn’t have a Batch Name set, or it belongs to a batch with more than one job, it won’t be affected by this setting. Is that potentially what you’re seeing here?
Cheers,
Ryan
