Viewing and Applying Pending Operations
You can view and commit all pending operations for the storage controller. All the settings are either
applied at once, during the next reboot, or at a scheduled time based on the selected options. You can
delete all the pending operations for a controller. You cannot delete individual pending operations.
Pending Operations are created on the selected components (controllers, enclosures, physical disks, and
virtual disks).
Configuration jobs are created only on controller. In case of PCIe SSD, job is created on PCIe SSD disk
and not on the PCIe Extender.
