Cisco Cisco Firepower Management Center 4000

Some tasks that you can perform on the FireSIGHT System, such as applying a policy or installing 
updates, do not complete instantly and require some time to run. You can check the progress of these 
long-running tasks in the task queue. The task queue also reports when they are successfully or 
unsuccessfully resolved.

For more information, see the following sections:

Any

When you perform long-running tasks, such as applying a policy or installing updates, the status of these 
tasks is reported in the task queue. The task queue provides information about complex tasks and reports 
when they are complete.

You view the task queue on the Task Status page, which automatically refreshes every 10 seconds. You 
can always see the status of tasks that you initiated. If your user account has the Administrator user role, 
or a user role with the 

 permission enabled, you can see the status of every task, 

regardless of who initiated it. For more information on configuring user roles, see 

The Job Summary section displays the state of the tasks listed on the page, as described in the following 
table.

Running

Retrying

Stopped

cannot be resumed; you must manually delete them from the task queue.
