Question 600
A SmartConsole Central Deployment task remains blocked before package verification. The management server cannot reach the chosen gateway, although the package exists in its repository. The job is not a policy-install problem. An alternate diagnosis concerns the requirement to obtain an exact patch required by a change advisory, for which a colleague suggests search for the named Hotfix/Jumbo package in deployment UI. Based on the recorded symptoms, which corrective step should have priority?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Remote deployment depends on control connectivity to targets. This directly addresses the documented incident evidence.
Incorrect Answers
The specific-package lookup matches the approved advisory, but the current evidence calls for a different R82 operation.
CDT uses the Management Server to deploy to gateways, yet that applies to decide where CDT runs when upgrading remote gateways rather than the observed issue.
Central Deployment is the documented gateway best practice; this does not resolve the observed condition.
