Working With Pending Devices

When the device is added to RME, RME device management moves the device into this state, and
invokes all the registered application tasks such as Inventory Collection and Configuration collection.
Based on the results of the tasks, the device moves to one of these states—Pre-deployed, Normal or
Aliased.
The Pending state is a transient state and no device will be in this state for any significant time. If the
devices are in this state for a longer time, you can suspend the devices and resubmit for managing.
To do this use, Resource Manager Essentials > Devices > Device Management > Suspended Devices.
