Select a task and choose one of the following options:

• Click Delete Tasks to delete or cancel a task.
• Click Suspend Tasks to suspend a queued task.
• Click Resume Tasks to resume a suspended task.
• Click More Actions > Enable Auto Delete to delete completed tasks when the task list is full.

NOTE:

XP7 Command View AE can manage many storage systems. Therefore you can manage up
to 100,000 tasks before the oldest tasks start getting deleted. Because system tasks are created
for XP7 storage only, the system task list will display 384 tasks (for each XP7 storage system),
including up to 128 tasks with a status of In Progress, Waiting, or Suspended, and up to 256
tasks with a status of Completed or Failed. Enable Auto Delete is recommended.

• Click More Actions > Disable Auto Delete to keep tasks after they are completed.

5.

Verify the settings and click Apply.

TIP:

The Tasks pane automatically updates every 60 seconds by default. To change the interval,
from the tree view, right-click the target storage system, and then select Other Functions.
From the displayed window, click Setting > Environmental Settings >
Edit Information Display Setting, then specify the refresh interval for the tasks list.

Troubleshooting system tasks

Verify the status of queued system tasks in HP XP7 storage systems that do not successfully complete
within a reasonable amount of time and troubleshoot as necessary.

Check the details of a system task that has not completed successfully. System tasks cannot be restarted
but system tasks can be suspended or resumed.

NOTE:

This procedure is for troubleshooting problems for tasks related to changing a storage systems
configuration, not for update database tasks, which are recorded in the Data Collection Tasks tab.

1.

On the Tasks & Alerts tab, select All Tasks.

2.

Check the task Status column in the System Tasks tab to determine if a task has completed.

3.

To view task details, click Manage System Tasks, select the storage system where the task is
registered, and click OK.
