Tasks window
The Tasks window can display 384 tasks, including up to 128 tasks with a status of In Progress,
Waiting, and Suspended, and up to 256 tasks with a status of Completed and Failed. If the number
exceeds these limits, the oldest completed tasks are automatically removed from the window.
Managing your tasks
Remote Web Console allows you to suspend, resume, cancel, and prevent tasks from being
automatically deleted.
Prerequisites
•
Users that execute the task or users with Storage Administrator (System Resource Management)
role can view the details of tasks.
•
Users with the Storage Administrator (System Resource Management) role can delete, suspend,
resume tasks, and enable or disable auto-deletion of tasks.
Procedure 30 To modify a task:
1. In the tree, click Storage Systems > Tasks. The list of tasks appears.
2. In the list, click the task or tasks that you want to modify.
3. In the bottom right corner of the window, click the corresponding button for the task you want
to perform:
•
Click Delete Tasks to delete or cancel a task.
•
Click Suspend Tasks to suspend a queued task.
•
Click Resume Tasks to resume a suspended task.
•
Click More Actions > Enable Auto Delete to delete tasks from the Task list when they have
completed and the task list is full. This allows you to check for completed tasks and to
clear the list when the limit (384) is reached.
•
Click More Actions > Disable Auto Delete to keep tasks in the task list after the tasks are
completed.
4. Verify the displayed settings and click Apply.
Stalled tasks
If a queued task is not performed over a reasonable period, check the following:
•
Did the task fail? Click failed to view the reason. Then delete the task using the Delete Tasks
window, correct the problem, and try the task again.
•
Are too many tasks in the task list because Auto Delete is disabled? Use the Enable Auto Delete
window to remove tasks from the window.
•
Is another program changing the storage system configuration? Check this by observing
whether Resource Lock is displayed for too long a time. If so, verify that another program is
running and then wait until its changes are completed.
•
The percentage of progress of an ongoing task may not change if another operation is in
progress.
