Question about Multicast Image Tasking Behavior with FOG API

[danieln]

Sever OS: Debian 10 Buster
FOG OS: 1.5.10

Hey everyone,

I am currently using the FOG API to create multicast image deployment tasks for groups of 24 laptops at a time. I have a question about the behavior of these multicast tasks in case of failure:

If one of the laptops in the group fails during tasking or deployment, would the other 23 laptops wait indefinitely until the task is manually canceled? Or is there a mechanism that allows the rest of the group to continue or time out appropriately?

If so, I think unicast may be the way to go.

Thanks in advance!
