Task Monitoring Example Using the Listview Object

You can use the ViewManager’s CreateListView method to specify a set of tasks that you want to monitor with the PropertyCollector. This example shows how to initiate virtual machine cloning operations and monitor completion by tracking the Task objects.

For general task monitoring, a best practice is to use a ViewManager to monitor specific tasks. See the API Reference for more information about using views.

Note:

For simplicity, the calls to RetrievePropertiesEx() and WaitForUpdatesEx() in this example ignore the possibility of additional chunks of data returned by the property collector. For more information about chunking in property collector results, see Server Data Transmission.
