The Task Request Monitor Window | |
The Task Request Monitor window displays a history of tasks
performed in the current session (and any other sessions running
on the machine). Each task is listed with properties such as the
user who performed the task, the task status, and the start/finish
times. The File menu removes finished tasks or closes the window.
The Tasks and popup menus stop/restart tasks and access task properties. You can use the Task Request Monitor window as follows: To display the Task Request Monitor,
choose Window > Tasks (from the main window) or click on
the Task button in the toolbar. To cancel a selected task, choose Tasks > Abort.
To temporarily stop a task, choose Tasks > Pause. To continue
a task, choose Tasks > Resume. To view
task properties and the low-level command(s) used to perform a task,
select the task and choose Properties from the Tasks or popup menu.
You can also access task properties by double-clicking on the task. To sort the tasks by task type, click on the Task
column heading. To sort the tasks by property, click on the appropriate
property column heading. To reverse the sort order, click on the
column heading again. To remove completed tasks from the window, choose
File > Remove Finished Tasks. To print the contents of this window, choose File > Print
Grid and complete the Print dialog box. To print details about a
specific task, select the task, choose File > Print, and
then complete the Print dialog box.
The Task Properties window shows information about a specific
task. Task properties include the user who performed the task, the
task status, the start/finish times, and the low-level commands
used to perform the task. For failed tasks, the Task Properties
window includes any relevant error messages. You can copy commands
from the Executed Commands field to the command line or a script
