| State |
Meaning |
| Queued |
Accepted and about to start. |

Held at a checkpoint. DAST and penetration scans can be paused and resumed through the API. |
| Succeeded |
Completed. The report is ready. |
| Partial |
Completed with gaps, for example after an engine restart mid-run. Never shown as clean. |

Cerberon decides whether a scan can run when you submit it. A scan that cannot run is refused with the reason. There is no waiting queue.
| Check |
Refused when |
| Memory |
Free memory, after 1 GB for the Core and the reservations of running scans, is below this scan’s reservation: 4 GB for SAST, 3 GB for DAST, penetration and mobile, 2 GB for SCA, cloud and Kubernetes. |
| Disk |
Less than 2 GB is free. A warning appears below 10 GB. |
| Host load |
Load is above two runnable tasks per CPU. |
| Target |
The target is a loopback, link-local or cloud metadata address. |
| Unreadable host data |
Memory or disk cannot be measured. The scan is refused rather than started blind. |
To proceed, free memory or disk, wait for running scans to finish, or correct the target.
