Purpose:
You receive the error, "Deployment thread locked up and was terminated." or "Scanning thread locked up and was terminated."
Resolution:
You might receive this error when multiple commands are being sent to a single machine by PDQ products. For example, a deployment is initiated across a slow connection that also initiates a Wake-on-LAN event, or a deployment is initiated during a PDQ Inventory scan.
While this is a transient error, it is recommended to add a Sleep Step (PDQ Deploy Enterprise mode required) or to wait until other operations are complete prior to initiating the deployment/scan.
