IEM status show "Waiting to satisfy temporal distribution time constraint"

When we scheduled a request to deploy a fixlet to clients, the status show “Waiting to satisfy temporal distribution time constraint”. The schedule time is over 1-2 hours. The status still show it. Anyone know what is it mean?

It depends on the download sizes and also on the time frame that you set.
Could you give an example of your settings task?

Waiting to satisfy temporal distribution time constraint means that you set Stagger action start times over # minutes to reduce network load in the action settings.

This can be especially confusing if your action fails because if the action fails relatively quickly then you can see it sit in waiting for an hour because of the staggering and then fail, and then try again, waiting for an hour because of the staggering.

I’d make sure your action isn’t just failing and retrying (and causing another wait).
