the selected controller, channel, array or drive.
It is only possible to create tasks for arrays or drives. If you select

When Adaptec Storage Manager is installed, a scheduled task is
created to perform a weekly background consistency check of all
hot spares in the system. This task can be seen by clicking Tasks
