The Run Now feature allows you to:

  • Re-run a monitoring or advanced task that has been deployed.
  • Immediately run a monitoring or advanced task without affecting its schedule (if any).
  • Get responses from target devices immediately.

The Run Now button is visible under the Monitoring Tasks and Advanced Tasks tabs. By default, the Run Now button will be disabled. Upon selecting a task from the main pane, the button will be enabled.

Note
For Appspace on-premise users, Device Tasks can still be found directly on the ☰ Appspace menu.

Prerequisites

  • At least one deployed Monitoring or Advanced task.
