Managing tasks

This topic describes tasks and the Tasks window, and provides instructions for managing tasks.

Because Remote Web Console operations are executed in the background, you start the next task
immediately after performing the previous one. You keep track of your tasks' progress is by entering
a task name during each Remote Web Console procedure and then tracking its status and other
information using the Tasks window.

Each procedure you perform requires a task name. For example, when you provision or
configure the system, create a pair, or any other procedure, you must assign a name for the
task.

Each task is queued and then processed by the storage system in the order of its arrival.

Only one task is executed at the same time, except for the following. In the case of the following
operations, the next task may be executed before the current task completes or fails.

Remote Web Console allows you to suspend, resume, cancel, and prevent tasks from being
automatically deleted.
