Suspension and Restart of Individual Tasks

The Reservation Manager automatically suspends a provisioning task when it detects that the task would fail under current conditions. In these cases, the administrator receives an email notification that a problem exists and must be resolved. For example, Reservation Manager checks whether sufficient disk space is available before provisioning a virtual machine. Insufficient disk space causes automatic suspension of the deployment task. The administrator must resolve the disk space issue before restarting the task that was suspended.

To restart individual provisioning tasks that the system suspended

1. As administrator in Reservation Manager, under Administer Your Reservation Manager, click View all reservations.

   The View Reservations page opens. The Job Status column shows that a job is suspended.

2. Click the check box next to the reservation you want to restart, click the Actions menu, and click Details.
3. Click the link in the Job Status column to resume the job.
4. Select the suspended job, click the Actions menu, and select Restart Selected Task.

   The job is restarted.
