The All Scheduled Tasks page displays the tasks that are scheduled to run at periodic times or based on events criteria. A scheduled task can also have a schedule of not scheduled, which means that the task is listed but only runs when manually executed by a user.

Task information is available by selecting Tasks & LogsView All Scheduled Tasks. Select a task by clicking the task row. Refer to:

If multiple users are accessing a task simultaneously, the changes from the last user to edit the task are saved. For example, if User1 and User2 sign into HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) with full-configuration-rights and User1 is editing a task while User2 is deleting the same task, then when User1 tries to save the edited task a message appears, indicating that the task does not represent an object in the system. User1 is unable to save the edited task.

User Privileges

The list of tasks that a user can see are based on the user's privilege and access level. All users are allowed to edit, delete, and view the tasks they created. With full-configuration-rights, a user is allowed to edit, delete, and view tasks other users created.

Edit
