Because the current task runs to completion, the workflow status might change to Canceled while the task is still running.

When the task completes, the task enters a Completed state unless the task is a Human task. A Human task remains in a Running state until the workflow recovers. When the workflow recovers, the Human task state changes to Completed when the steps in the task are completed.

The task and the workflow are canceled. The workflow is recoverable.

The service process changes the task and workflow instance states to Aborted when the service process restarts.

If the workflow is not configured for automatic recovery, the service process changes the task and workflow instance states to Canceled when the service process restarts. The interrupted task restarts when you recover the workflow.

If the workflow is configured for automatic recovery, the service process recovers the workflow instance and restarts the interrupted task when the service process restarts. The service process changes the task and workflow instance states to Running.
