Use task detail pages to view detailed information about
the tasks that IBM
Spectrum® Control uses
to optimize resources and provision storage. You can use this information
to troubleshoot the reason why a task failed, analyze details of a
task before you implement task recommendations, or schedule future
task runs.
On all the task detail pages, you can view information such
as the task status, the duration and completion date of task runs,
and the actions that you can take to manage the task. For tasks such
as tiering analysis, balance analysis, and transform plan, you can
view information about the recommendations that are generated by the
most recent or earlier task runs. For provisioning tasks, you can
view the status of the actions that the provisioning task completes
for each of the resources that are configured in the task.
-
From the menu bar, go to the Tasks page, a resource list page for a resource type, or a resource detail page for a specific resource.
For example, to view the tasks that are related to storage systems, go to and select the type of storage system you want to monitor, and click the Tasks tab.
- Locate the task that you want to view in more detail.
- Right-click the task row and select View Details.
The task details page opens in a separate window.
For example, the Tiering Analysis page opens
if you select a tiering-analysis task row.
- Optional: To view task logs, click Open Logs. You can use the information in the log file
to troubleshoot any errors that might occur when a task is run.
- Optional: For provisioning tasks, you can export
information about the provisioning task to a text file for offline
viewing. To export information, click the
icon at the top of the Provisioning page.
