Sometimes it happens that Tasks in a Nutanix environment take like forever.
It is not recommended but there are occasions that a Task needs to STOP!
And it happens that this is not possible via the GUI (Prism Element or Prism Central).
So to get the current running tasks:
(from PE or PC)
ecli task.list include_completed=false
And to stop the Task:
(there are 2 dashes before task…)
ergon_update_task --task_uuid='TASK_UUID' --task_status=aborted
And verify with the above command again (ecli task.list include_completed=false)
BTW –task-status can have following values:
- running
- succeeded
- aborted
- suspended
- failed
