Tasks

Tasks allow you to organize computer scanning operations. Within a task you can create an analyzing FixIt! tool with customized parameters, get a report about system state, analyze the findings, and create a FixIt! tool for further analysis and curing of the system. A separate task is created for each computer.

Administrators can view all tasks in the service. Managers and users can access tasks of their own space only. Any space member can resume working in an open task created by another space member.

Tasks have an expiration period, after which all generated reports remain available, but no more work on the task can be done. The expiration period is set per space when it is created and applies to all tasks within the space. By default, tasks expire in 10 days.
