Status Node

Once a job has been executed, it always generates the tables providing information on host connection status, job statistics, job task statistics, and error and warning messages can be viewed under the job’s Status node:

Status Node

The Status node tables are:

  • ConnectStatus table – Lists all hosts queried during job execution and the access status of the scan, unless the System Default is being used

  • Job Stats table – Provides information on the selected job’s runtime details, according to the global configuration set in the Settings > Application node. By default, this is set to not filter the data.

  • Task Stats table – Provides information for each task run during job execution, according to the global configuration set in the Settings > Application node. By default, this is set to filter to the most recent data.

    NOTE: The Job Statistics Retention settings in the Settings > Application node control how long the job statistics history is kept in the database and displayed Job Stats and Task Stats tables. See the Application topic for additional information.

  • Messages table – Provides a list of any warning or error messages that occurred during the execution of the job. For example, a frequently generated message is WARNING: No Host found for processing.

    • If this message is generated by an analysis or reporting job, then there is no problem as that type of job does not need a host list assigned
    • However, if this message is generated by a job running a data collection query, this warning would explain why the native data table is empty
