Task Registry page
The task registry page displays the tasks that are registered. Task registration is the first step to prepare a task for processing. It must be registered in Services Framework before it can be configured and made active. A task can only be registered once. When registering tasks, provide a unique, descriptive name for a task as well as a longer description that describes the function of the task.
Registration verifies that the task was properly installed. It also ensures that the task can properly communicate with the Services Framework APIs.
Columns
The columns that are available on this page are shown in the following table.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Task | The name that was given to the registered task. It must be unique. |
| Classname | The name of the Java™ class that is called by Services Framework. It is the actual task that runs. When a task is configured to run, Services Framework instantiates the class name, passes in the configuration and runtime parameters, and requests that the task run. |
| Description | A detailed description that identifies the purpose of the task. |
