When distribution is complete, the group task appears in
Group Tasks Management
window. If you connect to any computer included into the group, you will see its
individual task, based on the group task you successfully created.
4.4.3 Group tasks management
The
Group Tasks Management
window displays the list of group tasks.
To see details of a group task, mouse over the task name.
To create new or delete existing backup task, use the
New
and
Delete
items on the
Group tasks
toolbar.
To edit a task, select it and click
Edit
. Editing is performed in the same way as creation,
however, the earlier selected options will be set, so you have to enter only the changes.
Deleting or editing a task does not affect the current task execution. A task, that has been
edited or deleted while running, will come to an end without any changes. The changes
you made will be applied when execution is completed.
In addition to editing tasks for groups, you can edit individual tasks produced by the
group task on each computer involved. To do so, connect the console to the desired
computer. For details, see
8.2 Managing scheduled tasks.
To stop or restart the task execution, use the
Stop
or
Restart
toolbar items. The task
schedule, if created, remains valid.
For a group task that is not currently being executed on either computer, the following
operations are also available:
Run now
- an instant task start command. The task schedule, if created, remains valid.
Check
– the group server will connect in turn to all computers involved in the group task
and check if the child tasks are intact on the computers so that the group task can run
effectively. The result will be displayed.
