After the OS deployment is started, system administrator can verify the status of the job from the job status.
The job status depends on the following two parameters:
SignalCompletion signals the completion of the OS installation in addition to the InstallAgent parameter.
Client Automation agent installation is not supported on VMware ESXi 4.1, VMware ESXi 5.1, and Citrix XenServer hypervisors. Hence, InstallAgent parameter is set to No by default for these operating systems.
