TASKS WITH THE TASK

MANAGER

The Task Manager is used to create and work with application tasks

on a rack level as well as to generate the rack configuration and drive

parameter files for UDC modules. You can access the Task Manager

by selecting Manage Tasks from the Rack menu in the System

Configurator. See figure 8.1 for the Task Manager menu structure. A

list of existing tasks (if any) will be displayed, and three menus will be

listed on the menu bar as follows:
Task: used to add new tasks and display or edit existing task

information, verify tasks, resequence and compile tasks, transfer

tasks to or from diskette, print out task listings, remove tasks, and

generate crossĆreference, rack configuration, and parameter object

files.
Commands: used to edit DOS files, to delete files that are no longer

needed, create the configuration file for a rack, and generate the

drive parameter files for a rack.
OnĆLine! enables you to access the Online menu.
