There are two types of jobs — system-created jobs
(implicit) and user-created jobs (explicit).
System-created jobs are created when you run specific
Remote Services tasks. For example, Remote Services features such
as export hardware inventory, export license, create persistent storage
partition, and so on create a job and return the job ID. Polling the
job status determines the completion status of the task.
User-created jobs such as CreateTargetedConfigJob,
CreateRebootJob, and InstallFromURI are used to apply user configurations
for RAID, NIC, BIOS, and so on. They can be scheduled to run immediately
or at a scheduled time.
NOTE: If FIPS is enabled,
you cannot perform any actions associated with the vFlash SD card,
such as configuring the vFlash SD card, exporting or backing up server
profile to the vFlash, or importing server profile using vFlash.
