Task results list

The Task Results list displays the list of task instances known to the

system

. Each

task

instance listed displays

its unique job ID, the name of the task, its owner, status, duration, and the start and end time for the task.
The Task Results list lists status information from scheduled tasks that have run, as well as status information
from runable tasks, which are tasks that do not have a schedule. The Task Results list enables you to stop,
delete, and view task instance results.

To see task information, select Tasks & Logs

View Task Results. Click the task row, and select one of

the following options:

Stop

. Click Stop to stop a running task instance. See

“Stopping a task”

for more information.

Delete

. Select a task instance, and click Delete. See

“Deleting task results”

for more information.

Note: If the task instance is currently running, a message appears, informing you to stop the task instance
before attempting to delete it.

The results of a task instance are displayed below the Task Results list.
