Execution Progress <command name>

After you click the Run button to run a valid command specification or command on valid hosts or groups of hosts, DCEM displays Execution Progress Dialog to show the status of the command execution on all of the hosts.   This dialog shows the current status of command execution on all hosts. The name and detailed command sent to the selected hosts display at the top of the window.

In this dialog, a series of lists show hosts on which command execution is in one of the following states:

The bottom of the window displays output from the command execution on selected hosts. To display output from a host, select its name from any of the lists. Multiple selections made from the Successful or Failed lists result in combined output in the output window.  To view real-time output, select a host that is currently in the working state. The Waiting and Working lists do not support multiple selections.

You can find more detailed help on the following elements of this window:


Close

Selecting the Close button hides the Execution Progress Dialog, but does not stop execution on any hosts. If the DCEM dialog is closed before these hosts have completed execution, then these hosts will be stopped.


Stop

To stop the distributed command execution on all hosts, click the Stop button. If a command has not been completed on a host, command execution for that host is terminated. Hosts that have been stopped move to the Failed list. Command that have already completed may appear in either the Successful or Failed lists.
