Creating a command queue file during a session
File transfer and end-of-session remote management tasks that you perform in
the Session Manager are automatically added to the Command Queue. Files transfer
in the background so that you can continue to work or queue other files. After the
queue runs, you can modify the order of operations, add or remove commands,
and rearrange the order of commands. When you finish working in the command
queue, you can print a report of the command queue tasks.
You can also manually add commands to the Command Queue.
See “Using command queue files to automate tasks” on page 168.

To make changes to a task that is running, you must first pause the queue.

Queue.

Removing a command from the command list

in the command queue file.

command list.
