Assigning the Remediation Task for Repair
When a service requires remediation, it is automatically added to the Cloud Service Remediation queue in Service 
Manager. You receive the notification of failure, then assign yourself or another Cloud Provider Technical Administrator 
to address the issue. View the Cloud Service Remediation queue and assign a task using the following steps:
1.
Choose Service Manager from the module drop-down list.
2.
In the left navigation panel on the Service Manager Home page, expand All Queues in the tree on the left-hand side, 
then click the name (not the radio button next to) Cloud Service Remediation. Unassigned tasks appear in a list.
3.
In the Cloud Service Remediation queue list, click the requisition number. Display-only summaries of the task and 
requisition appear below the Cloud Service Remediation queue. 
4.
Assign the task:
To assign the task to yourself, choose Check Out from the More Actions drop-down list. The task is moved to 
the My Work view in the left navigation panel. 
To assign the task to someone else, expand Service Teams in the tree on the left-hand side, then the team to 
which the user belongs, click the radio button by the user’s name, then click Assign. The task is moved to the 
chosen person’s My Work view; the person is notified of the assignment.
Note: 
After the task is assigned, the assignee must first check out the task from the Cloud Service Remediation 
queue before fixing the failure.
