We have an ESXi V7.x datacenter with a dozen ESXi servers. Updates are being downloaded regularly and applied in our weekend update window without any issue. Where we have a problem is in the Recent Tasks window, we get multiple entries where the VMware vSphere Update Manager Check Notification is in ? queued status.
Looking in the vSphere event log, there are entries for checking for notifications.
The Task Console provides a bit more information.
on the vCenter Server Management page, vCenter will check for updates. Under the Network tab, the http and https proxy addresses are set properly.
I am at a loss as to where to even look to see where this task is defined much less cancelled by a user.
Any advice as to what to check and where to check it?
