Tasks Management

Summary

Every profile deployment, settings assignment, firmware rollout, or power operation in zMAN generates a Task. Tasks let you monitor execution status and results per device or group :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}.

Viewing Tasks

1. In the zMAN UI, click **Tasks** in the main navigation.
2. Use filters to narrow by:
   • Task type (Profile, Settings, Firmware, Power)
   • Status (Pending, In Progress, Success, Failed)
   • Time range
3. Click any Task entry to see detailed logs, including per-device outcomes and timestamps.

Task Details

• Initiator: user or API call that triggered the Task
• Targets: list of devices or groups included
• Status Summary: counts of successful, failed, and pending devices
• Logs: drill down to individual device events with timestamps and error codes

Troubleshooting Task Failures

• For failures on many devices, check the Task’s common error message and refer to the zTC’s **Device Information → Metrics** for detailed logs.
• If a Task is stuck in “In Progress,” verify that the zDM Server is online and reachable by clicking **Server Configuration → zDM Management**.
• Use the **Retry** button on failed device entries to re-attempt without recreating the Task.
