A.1.16 Process Status List window (Gantt Chart)

Outline

The execution schedule of the Automated Operation Process and the current status are displayed in a 25 hour time chart that contains the current time.

The execution schedule displays the schedule for the next 24 hours after the display start time. Color coding is used to indicate the current Automated Operation Process status. Specifying a past date displays the history information in a chart. If a time in the future is specified, a chart with schedule information is displayed.

In the Gantt chart, Automated Operation Processes that meet one of the following conditions are displayed.

Calling sequence or built-in sequence

Use the following procedure to display this window:

  1. Log in to the Web console and select a process group.

  2. Click the Process Status submenu of the Process Management tab.


(Updates to the latest information)

The Gantt chart display updates to the latest information. The Gantt chart display the date when it is updated.

When today's server date changes to accommodate the date change time at the time of the update, the display date does not change automatically. The display time position (horizontal position) is displayed in the same position as prior to the update.


AutoRefresh

The Gantt chart display updates to the latest information automatically at the specified update interval. The default setting is set to automatically update at 5-minute intervals. A value from 5 to 20 (minutes) can be specified for the update interval. The automatic update only occurs when today's information is displayed. If the server date changes when the automatic update is enabled, today's information will be displayed automatically.


Specify the date

Specify the date for the information to be displayed in the Gantt chart. The initial display is the information for today. The date selection can be specified using a date calendar. When Today is selected, the display will return to the display for today.

AutoScroll

When the window is refreshed, the Gantt chart list will automatically scroll so that it is centered on the current time. In the default setting, automatic scrolling is enabled.

Vertically scroll

The display will be centered on the Automated Operation Process for which the start time or scheduled start time is closest to the current time.

Horizontally scroll

The time chart will be centered on the current time.

To scroll manually both horizontally and vertically, clear the AutoScroll setting. To use automatic scrolling again, select AutoScroll.

If the date changes when automatic scrolling is enabled, today is displayed automatically.


Column width

The Gantt chart time width changes in three phases using a slider.


Server time

The Management Server system time when the information was updated is displayed.


The following information is displayed in the list:

Name

This is the process instance name.

When the name is clicked, the process instance details will be displayed. If the user is not the process instance start user or the owner, an error message will be displayed when this name is selected. Additionally, the link will not be displayed if the process instance has a "never executed" status.


Status

This is the process instance status.

Status

Description

Exit

The Exit Node is reached and the Automated Operation Process finishes.

Running

The Automated Operation Process is running normally.

Waiting

The Automated Operation Process is scheduled and waiting to be executed.

Suspended

The Automated Operation Process has been paused. When a user performs the Suspended operation, the status changes to "paused". To change the status to "running" again, the user performs the Resume operation. In this state, only the Resume operation is possible. This operation is performed in the process instance details window.

Error

An error has occurred in the Automated Operation Process. The status changes to "Error" in the following cases:

  • When there is an error with the Java Action set for the process definition or node or with the value specified for the role of an Activity Node

  • When the Automated Operation Process cannot be executed because the necessary processes are not running on the Management Server

If this status occurs, take appropriate action by either checking the details of the process instance or by looking up the system log to find out the cause of the error.

On Hold

The Schedule Definition has been put on hold. Even if the startup day/start time are satisfied, the Automated Operation Process will not be started until the user performs the OnHold cancellation operation.

Aborted

The Automated Operation Process has been canceled. When a user performs the Abort operation, the status changes to Abort. This operation is performed in the process instance details window.


Schedule Definitions

The Automated Operation Process start type is displayed.

Displayed Content

Description

Schedule Definitions name

This is displayed if the UDA set for the Schedule Definition is used to start the Automated Operation Process.

If the Schedule Definition name is clicked, the details window for the selected Schedule Definition is displayed.

Blank

This is displayed if the Automated Operation Process is started from the process definition after the UDA was specified.


Current node

The process instance node position is displayed.

Status

Displayed node

Exit

Exit Node.

Running

Node being processed. If there are multiple current nodes, only the latest node (the node that was transitioned to last) will be displayed.

Waiting

None.

Suspended

Paused node.

Error

Node in which the error occurred.

On Hold

None.

Aborted

Canceled node.


Gantt chart.

The Automated Operation Process start performance and scheduled start are displayed in the Gantt chart. The displayed start time will change to the date change time. However, if the date change time setting is any value except 0 minutes, the displayed start time will change to 0 minutes.

If the scheduled start time and the actual start time are different, the predicted end time will be displayed as a dotted line on the performance line.

The schedule is displayed in the upper area of the chart, and the performance is displayed in the lower area of the chart.

The chart is displayed according to the status, as shown below:
