Starts a noninteractive IBM® Systems
Director task
on a specified system. Noninteractive
tasks are tasks that do not require user input.
- Requirements
- This event action has the following requirements:
- The specified system must
have Common Agent installed.
- The specified task must be a noninteractive task.
- The task that you want to use must be available in the IBM Systems
Director Web interface before
you can specify the task for this action.
Important: Some tasks have hardware or software requirements
and cannot be performed on a given system. Give careful consideration to an event automation plan that uses this
event action before associating it with a given system or group.
- Result
- The task is started on the specified system.
- Example
- Consider an environment where you have two physical systems
and one of the physical system is running three virtual servers. You can create
an event automation plan that detects
a critical Predictive Failure Analysis® (PFA) event on a physical system. Using this action,
you can run a previously created noninteractive task that migrates the running
workload of the virtual servers hosted on the affected physical server to
the second physical server.
Note: You can create noninteractive tasks using
the Command Automation task.
