When you send an asynchronous action, HPE Media Server adds the task to a queue and returns a token that you can use to check its status. HPE Media Server performs the task when a thread becomes available.
To check the status of an asynchronous action, use the token that was returned by HPE Media Server with the QueueInfo
action. For more information about the QueueInfo
action, see the HPE Media Server Reference.
