How tasks in the installation queue are processed
When you add a task to the installation queue:
•
It is added to the end of the queue.
•
If you added a command, the task is initiated after existing queued tasks finish.
•
If you added a component, the task is initiated after:
◦
Existing queued tasks finish.
◦
The software that initiates installation for the selected component type detects a pending installation.
If the installation queue is empty and iLO can initiate the update, the update begins immediately.
To determine the software that can initiate an update, check the component details on the iLO Repository and
Installation Queue pages.
•
If a previously queued task is waiting to start or finish, a new task might be delayed indefinitely. For example, there
might be a queued component waiting until the UEFI BIOS detects it during server POST. If the server is not restarted,
the tasks that follow this task in the queue will remain on hold indefinitely.
