[Accepted] Give a little more detail on tasks

Problem/Justification
(What is the problem you are trying to solve with this feature/improvement or why should it be considered?)
Task status is rudimentary in the popup

Impact
(How is this feature going to impact all TrueNAS users? What are the benefits and advantages? Are there disadvantages?)
it’s frustrating not to have this basic info

User Story
(Please give a short description on how you envision some user taking advantage of this feature, what are the steps a user will follow to accomplish it)
In the tasl status, would be really nice to know:

  1. time when it started, e.g., “started 62 minutes ago”
  2. estimated completion time, e.g., “estimated 23 minutes left”
  3. compute the % progress which is very inaccurate for replication tasks (sits at 0%)

Are you looking for this screen to be improved?

Dang. First time I’ve seen that I thought I’d seen it all.

That’s from the history button, right? Is there any other way to access that menu?

It is in the top tool bar. I don’t have an image for “active jobs”.

It’s BURIED. You have to click jobs, then scroll down to find history button to get Tasks.

The documentation confirms they buried it.

Hi @stk … I think we can make the feature more prominent / omnipresent. Thanks for the suggestion.
