Viewing Task History
VEA logs all task requests. You can view the task history (including tasks in progress) using the
Task History window, or the Command Log file.
The Task History 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 task name, task
status, and start time.
To display the Task History window, click on Tasks at the bottom of the main window.
Task History Window
For a selected task, you can use the popup menu options: Abort Task to cancel the task; Pause
Tas k to temporarily stop a task, Resume Task to continue the task; and Throttle Task to throttle a
task.
Task Throttling
Task Throttling causes an operation to pause for the allowed amount of time whenever a disk I/O is
performed, allowing the CPU and disks to perform other tasks.
