• Results
• The results are displayed in the Search view. The view shows all associated tasks. Review the tasks to determine
the probable cause of the wait and take corrective action.
• The layout of the task in the Search view depends on the information that is available for the tasks. In the first screen capture you can see
the following information:
• The three tasks in the view are all related, that is they have the same NETUOWID or TRNGRPID.
• Task 0000344contains previous hop data indicating that it was started by task 0093712, so task 0000344 is indented to indicate the parent-
child relationship.
• Task 0093711 is greyed out indicating that the task is no longer running.
• In the second screen capture you can see the following information:
• All three tasks in the view are related, that is they have the same NETUOWID or TRNGRPID.
• There is no previous hop data so it is not possible to identify any parent-child relationships between the tasks.
