For example, there may be files the task failed to process. The <a>DataRepositoryTaskFailureDetails</a> property provides more information about task failures. </li> <li> <code>SUCCEEDED</code> - The task has completed successfully. </li> <li> <code>CANCELED</code> - The task was canceled and it did not complete. </li> <li> <code>CANCELING</code> - The task is in process of being canceled. </li> </ul> <note> You cannot delete an FSx for Lustre file system if there are data repository tasks for the file system in the <code>PENDING</code> or <code>EXECUTING</code> states. Please retry when the data repository task is finished (with a status of <code>CANCELED</code>, <code>SUCCEEDED</code>, or <code>FAILED</code>). You can use the DescribeDataRepositoryTask action to monitor the task status. Contact the FSx team if you need to delete your file system immediately. </note> |
| paths                 | core | array<string> | An array of paths that specify the data for the data repository task to process. For example, in an EXPORT_TO_REPOSITORY task, the paths specify which data to export to the linked data repository. (Default) If <code>Paths</code> is not specified, Amazon FSx uses the file system root directory.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        |
