This topic describes the Process Task window in IBM® Director.
Use the Process Task window to create a command process that is saved as an instance of Process Tasks in the Tasks pane of the Director Console. When you create and save a process task, you can then apply it to a system and execute the command. This dialog is also used to edit an existing process task.
When Log is not selected and a task is executed, Director does not wait for the task to be completed; it is unknown whether the task executed correctly. If the command is submitted successfully, it will be displayed as having completed regardless of the actual status of the task.
If logging is enabled, Director waits for the task to complete. If the task fails, the failure is displayed in the task status.
