Reviewing process messages to determine the state of server
operations
Server processes, whether run in the foreground or background,
will always issue a process started message and a process
ended message in addition to the general process messages. You
can use these messages to determine the status of your server operation.
Processes that run on the server
A server process is a task that is performed on the server. You can assign the task to perform a specific operation, such as migrating data from a storage pool to the next storage pool in the hierarchy. Issue the server processes to resolve problems that you are having with your server.
Messages issued when processes start
When the server runs tasks as processes, the processes are assigned an identification message and report that they have started.
Messages issued when processes end
When the server runs tasks as processes, the processes report when they end. The process ended messages that are issued vary from process to process. The message depends on whether the process must report about items and bytes processed, no items or bytes processed, items processed, or just bytes processed.
