The appliance displays scheduled tasks and approval tasks in the Task Manager tab of Grid Manager. Scheduled tasks are those with scheduled time listed and approval tasks contain approval status. A task can also be scheduled and queued for approval at the same time. By default, all completed and rejected tasks are displayed in Task Manager for up to 14 days before they are removed from the list. You can configure how long the completed and rejected tasks are displayed in Task Manager using the CLI command set delete_tasks_interval. For more information about the CLI command, see Infoblox CLI Guide.
The appliance logs all tasks in the audit log and associates each with a task ID. By default, Grid Manager sorts tasks by Task ID in Task Manager. You can view tasks that you are allowed to see based on your permissions. For information about admin permissions, see About Administrative Permissions.
