Status Descriptions

Status	Description
Defined	All task types. The new task instance has been created (the task has been launched). Not yet implemented.
Waiting	All task types. The task has been loaded by a workflow and is waiting to run.
Held	All task types. The task has been put on hold by a user.
Resource Requested	All tasks with a virtual resource defined go immediately to a status of Resource Requested. If the resource is available, the task then moves to the next appropriate processing status.
Resource Wait	All tasks with a virtual resource defined go immediately to a status of Resource Requested. If the resource is not available, the task goes to a status of Resource Wait. When the resource becomes available, the task moves to the next appropriate processing status
Execution Wait	Agent-based tasks. The task must wait to be completed; either the Agent/Agent Cluster running the task has reached its Task Execution Limit, or the ability of the Agent/Agent Cluster to run tasks has been suspended.
Undeliverable	Agent-based tasks. The Agent is unavailable.
Queued	Agent-based tasks only. The task has been queued on a resource.
Submitted	z/OS only. The task has been submitted to the z/OS Job Entry subsystem and scheduled by the z/OS Job Scheduler.
Action Required	Manual tasks only. When a Manual task launches, it goes into Action Required status, meaning a user must perform some manual activity.
Started	Agent-based and Manual tasks only. The task has started. For Agent-based tasks, this means the Agent has received the task.
Running	All task types. The task is running. For Agent-based tasks, the Agent has started running the program.
Running Problems	Workflows only. One or more tasks within the workflow has one of the following statuses: Held Undeliverable Running Problems (for sub-workflows) Cancel Pending In Doubt Start Failure Cancelled
In Doubt	Agent-based tasks only. The Agent is "in doubt" about the current status of the task instance. This may occur if an Agent or Agent connection goes down. In this case, the Agent restarts and reviews its data about tasks in progress. If the Agent finds a task still running, it resumes normal monitoring. If the Agent cannot find the task, this usually indicates that the task completed, but the Agent considers the task status to be "in doubt."
Start Failure	All task types. The task was unable to start.
Confirmation Required	z/OS only. If you make JCL changes and restart a z/OS task, the Controller will put the task into Confirmation Required status and prompt you for a confirmation. For detailed processing steps, see Re-running a z/OS Task.
Cancelled	All task types. The task was cancelled by a user.
Failed	All task types. The task ran to a failure status.
Skipped	All task types. The task was skipped by a user.
Finished	All task types. The task was forced by the user to finish. The user may do this in cases where the task had Cancelled or Failed status, and the user needed to release other task instances depending on the successful completion of this task instance in a workflow. For more information, see Force Finishing a Task.
Success	All task types. The task has completed successfully.
