 +====== Tasks and Command Board ======
 +----
 +One of the fundamental aspects of any management solution is the ability to perform tasks and make note of events. The Device Task Board described below is used to record and archive the tasks that have been performed as a part of the management process. The Device Task Board is also used to examine the tasks on a granular basis when required to indicate why tasks may have failed or part failed.
  
 +===== Task Level View =====
 +----
 +
 +The task level view is used by administrators to list the tasks that have taken place. Tasks are listed in chronological order with the Task Level View with the most recent at the top.
 +
 +{{ task_and_command:​3.png }}
 +
 +As can be seen from the image above, tasks lists are generated with full details of the task description,​ date, the number of devices, state the task finished at as well as the number of sub-tasks that completed. In addition the failed tasks are clearly indicated in red. You can drill down into a task by double-clicking on its listing or by examining the entire set within the Command View.
 +
 +===== Command View =====
 +----
 +
 +The Command Level view shows the administrator which of the task’s individual commands have completed and to what level. As can be seen from the example below, several commands have not completed and their state is indicated by the colored status bar.
 +
 +{{ task_and_command:​4.png}}
 +
 +Further double clicking on the command results in the Status Info being displayed for that particular task.
 +
 +Should the command have run successfully the status info windows will be similar to that shown below on the left:
 +
 +{{task_and_command:​5.png}}{{task_and_command:​6.png}}
 +
 +However if the command was not successful the status window will indicate the failure and its reasons. See above right image.
