Reviewing task summary and scheduling tasks

1.

Review the list of tasks the wizard will perform to allocate and configure storage, and to host the

application storage or shared folder on your HP All-in-One Storage System.
For application storage, ensure the following is true before you run the tasks:
• You have an up-to-date backup of the application data and logs.
• The application data and logs are not being accessed or modified.

2.

Do one of the following:
• To go back and change your selections, click Back.
• To run the listed tasks immediately, click Finish.

• The Task Viewer opens, running the tasks required to configure storage and migrate data.

See

Monitoring task completion status

for more information.

• If the Task Viewer does not open, select Tools > Task Viewer in the Actions pane to open

the Task Viewer. ASM will not open the Task Viewer automatically if a task completes

quickly.

• To schedule tasks to run at a later time, select Schedule tasks to run later, enter a start date

and time, and then click Finish.

To select AM or PM for the start time, click the up and down arrow buttons.

To use a calendar to select a start date, click the down arrow button (located to the right of

the up and down arrow buttons) to open a calendar. To change the month displayed on the

calendar, click the previous and next buttons on the calendar, or click on the month or year

displayed at the top of the calendar to display drop-down lists.

Monitoring task completion status

The Task Viewer shows the status of ASM wizard tasks. ASM wizard tasks allocate and configure storage,

host application storage and shared folders, and configure data protection.
