Sonatype Nexus cleanup task in Waiting status

Question

We've configured cleanup policies in Sonatype Nexus 3.22.1-02 and also created tasks Cleanup service Admin - Cleanup repositories AND also Admin - Compact blob store and ran them manually but they are still in waiting status after a couple of hours. This is not a scheduled task.

Is there a way to understand what is holding them up and give them a push, or cancel and rerun? TIA.

Answer 1

Task status Waiting means the task has completed and is waiting for next run. Whether last run succeeded or failed will be shown in Last result field.

In the screenshot below you can see that the last time the task run was on January 21, it completed successfully and it took 0 seconds to complete. Now the task is waiting for the next run that will happen on January 22.
