Note

The display of long running processes is governed by the admin domain ownership. For example, if your Manager setup has a child admin domain, go to Manager → <Child Admin Domain> → Troubleshooting → Logs and select Background Tasks to view the long running processes for that child admin domain.

Trellix IPS logs the long running processes against the <Owner Admin Domain> and the user who performs the activity. The result for each activity is displayed as "Failure," "Success," or "In Progress" (if still running). You can also view a summary of the activity in the Details field.

Once an activity is completed, the entry for that long running activity is removed from the Running Tasks monitor in Dashboard page and displayed under Background Tasks tab in the Logs page.

The following table lists the information displayed in the Background Tasks tab:
