• n number of Lifecycle controller enabled Poll Status tasks
A Lifecycle controller enabled rollout job is created when you choose one or
more DUPs to be applied to a managed system, through one of the Hardware
Update Compliance reports. Within the job, each task has a specific
function. The Send Update task causes the DUP to be downloaded from the
Dell Management Console to the Lifecycle controller on the target. The
Execute Update task initiates the Lifecycle controller to begin application of
the particular DUP. The Poll status task checks on the DUP application status
- whether the DUP application is completed successfully or not. After the
update, a status message is displayed.
