Improve experience for finding failed task

[timotheeguerin]

A failed task is a task with a failure info but there is no failureInfo Odata filter so we can't do a server side list. Might be a way to find it.

Would not get scheduling errors but could list:

executionInfo/exitCode ne 0 and state eq 'Completed'

[timotheeguerin]

you can already do that one, the problem is when the task succeed but the file upload doesn't then there is a failureInfo but the exitCode is still 0

The color of tasks in the task list is not very helpful at all. I routinely run jobs with hundreds of thousands of tasks and once in a while a few of them fail, but I have no way to find them in any of the task lists.

For example:
.

I need a list of exactly those 121 tasks and nothing else.

This is a core issue with the Batch service which doesn't provide a way to filter by failed tasks. You can filter by non zero exit code but those 121 task might not have failed because of you, but because of the upload of output files failed for example and there is currently no way to filter those. I'll check on what is the status for that.

Good news is that this filter is being worked on right now. I can't give a exact ETA but you should see that coming in the next few months(With the next api version probably)
