2.26.1 Priority distribution function
When downloading packages, the priority distribution function suspends the download and checks jobs on the higher system at preset intervals. If another job is being executed, the priority distribution function checks whether it contains a package with a higher priority.
-
If the job contains a package with a higher priority, the priority distribution function switches to downloading and installing the higher priority package.
-
If the higher priority package is already being downloaded, the download resumes. Jobs are only checked during downloads. Jobs that are being installed are not suspended to check priority.
The Waiting for execution status appears for subsequent jobs executed when running multiple distribution jobs in version 12-60 and earlier versions of JP1/IT Desktop Management 2. With the priority distribution function, the status of all distribution jobs appears as Running as jobs are continually received while downloads are in progress.
