Audit Trail/Job Status | Portal Configuration
152 OMNM 6.5.3 User Guide
Some audit trails display as many as three tabs for the Input (the command variables sent to the
device), the Job Viewer with the message traffic to the device, and finally the Results of sending the
messages to a device. This lists devices on the left, and message traffic for a selected device on the
right.
NOTE:
By default, the Job Viewer window conceals info-level messages. To see them, click the icon next to the
Refresh icon to open the message level selector and check the info circle level of reporting, then click
Refresh to see those blue circles.
Close the audit trail viewer any time, and the action continues in the background. The the audit
trail is archived in the
Audit Trail Portlet .
Cancel option, when displayed, stops some, but not all jobs in progress. The underlying feature
(Discovery, Resync, Backup, and so on) described in the audit trail is responsible for gracefully
stopping the execution flow, ensuring that the system and the database is left in a good state; not
all features can do this. For performance reasons, it checks for cancellation at appropriate spots in
the transaction where it is easy and safe to exit the execution flow. This means that even if the type
of job supports cancellation, it may not cancel the current execution. If you press cancel while in
the middle of a multiple-device resync, the OpenManage Network Manager application does not
stop the resync or that device but instead bypasses the resync of subsequent devices.
Cancellation does not roll back work that has already been completed. So if you are executing an
Adaptive CLI action against 10 devices and you cancel the job after the third device is configured
the OpenManage Network Manager application does not try to roll back the work that has already
occurred against the first three, it does, however, stop executing against the remaining seven.
You can modify the Job Viewer appearance.
