Public Cloud Connectivity - Execution workflow
Clicking on a cloud connector service status icon in the inventory, opens the on-going (or the latest) execution workflow page. The execution workflow displays provisioning steps of the latest change on a cloud connector. Workflow is displayed in real time if the process is on-going, the latest one is displayed if not.
As an example, when a cloud connector is provisioned, it gives, in real time, all steps of the provisioning workflow of the defined cloud connector. When a process is on-going, the page is refreshed every 10 seconds.
At the bottom left of the page, click on Back to Inventory to return to Cloud connectors inventory.
