Messages

The Messages tab is used by nevisAdmin to show three different message types:

  • Notifications: These messages contain information about status changes, e.g., if an instance has become available or a configuration has been deployed. The messages automatically expire after 20 minutes.
  • Errors: These messages contain information about errors which need attention by the user to be solved, e.g., on a configuration error or if an instance has become unavailable.
  • Tasks: A task describes an open issue to be solved by the user to finalize a configuration, e.g., after creating a new object through a copy or import operation.
