HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) reports the following summary status for tasks:

  • critical icon Failed. The task instance has failed and needs immediate attention.

  • major icon Killed. The task instance was stopped.

  • minor icon Canceled. The task instance was canceled before the task was complete.

  • normal icon Complete. The task instance is complete.

  • normal icon Running. The task instance is running without a problem.

  • normal icon Copying. The task instance is copying without a problem.

  • unknown icon Pending. The task instance is not complete or is pending.

  • skipped icon Skipped. The task instance includes a system that is not supported or the system was in a disabled state.

    Note: When a tool does not support a system (for example, running a Windows tool on a Linux system), the task status is Skipped and the tool is not run on that system. The task is allowed to be created against collections even if some systems might not match the tool filter. When the task runs, the tool filtering is applied at that point. This differs from selecting a handful of systems in the UI and receiving the verify target selections screen with errors like system is not a Linux OS. Skipped is also displayed if a system is disabled and a polling tool (for example, Status polling or Data Collection) is run on it.
