6.8 Monitoring Long Operation Tasks
To monitor long operation tasks, select the Task Monitor from the navigation area.
Figure 97 Task Monitoring
The in progress tasks are displayed in the content area. The following task types are displayed.
• Logical drive initialization
• Logical drive consistency check
• Disk array capacity expansion
• Array rebuild
• BBU Fast Charging and BBU Discharging
• Disk Scrubbing
• Controller shutdown
The task monitor view displays the following information for each task in progress:
• The task type as listed above.
• The path where the task is taking place.
• Time Remaining to complete the task.
• A completion status for the task. For example, if the task is BBU Fast Charging, the completion status would
display a percentage complete value.
To cancel a long operation task, click the task you wish to cancel and click Task->Can cel.
CAUTION:
Canceling either, a logical drive rebuild or a logical drive consistency check, should only be done, if
absolutely necessary. Canceling either of these long operations leaves the logical drive unstable,
which may result in data loss.
Disk array capacity expansion cannot be canceled. This option is grayed out during the expansion
process
