Paused

User can pause an environment to prevent the server being assigned NEW actions, however any existing Actions will continue to run before the pause takes effect. Tranzman will also pause an environment during issues with the Agent, or the Action failed with critical error. The issues must be resolved to resume the agent A change in the pause/resume state will be recorded in the Environment History Report along with its date and time. The status turns to black if the agent is paused.

Hung/Failed

The red blinking dot tells the Agent is not responding for more than 1 hour. This could be either the agent services not running, or there are hung processes (probably CURL). Terminate hung processes, and/or restart the Agent to proceed with the Transition. A hung agent will also raise an Alert.

Progress status

The Progress widget on the dashboard shows when the migration started, the proposed switchover date, and then a status bar to help determine if the switch-over date is achievable. It provides metrics of the peak transfer rates to understand the data transfer performance and to estimate the time required to complete transfer. 700px

The issues need to be resolved and the failed images must be reverted to re-submit. The images can also be marked as ignored incase the images doesnt needs to be migrated. The refresh icon refreshes the data on the status widget. 700px
