Converter Standalone saves log files as it operates.

Table 6-1 lists the default locations where log files are saved. You can view the log files or send them to VMware

support, if necessary.

These file locations are also the file locations on the remote machine if you are running a remote hot clone. To

Filter the Tasks in the Task List

The number of archived tasks can grow to be very large. To minimize clutter in the task list, you can lower the

number of tasks that appear. You can select the tasks that you want the task list to display by filtering them.

You can filter tasks by history, status, or multiple criteria.

Filter Tasks by History on page 89

You can use the date on which a task is submitted to filter the task list.

Filter Tasks by Status on page 90

You can change which tasks appear in the task list based on their running status.

Filter Tasks by Multiple Criteria on page 90

You can combine filtering criteria to filter tasks in the task list. Tasks that are currently running are

displayed regardless of the filtering criteria you apply.

This option does not affect tasks in progress. Tasks in progress always appear in the task list.

Procedure

On the main menu, click View > History Filter and select a level of filtering.

Only tasks that correspond to the selected filtering level remain in the task list.
