Deleting tasks

You can delete tasks related to operations on copy pairs that were registered when the Pair
Configuration Wizard or the Change Pair Status Wizard completed an operation, or when a copy
pair associated with a remote path was deleted. You can only delete tasks that have the Cancel,
Failure, Warning or Success status. When a task is deleted the task information is deleted from the
repository. Resources reserved by a task are released when all the related workflows are deleted.

Once a task has completed and the retention period has expired, it is automatically deleted from the
Task List. Users with the Admin (Replication Manager management) permission can manage the
retention period. For details on how to check the retention period of a task, see “
