The REST request will deploy something similar to the following: # restcurl -u admin: mgmt/cm/firewall/tasks/deploy-configuration { "items": [ { "createChildTasks": true, "currentStep": "CHECK_LICENSE", [...] "startDateTime": "2019-08-28T15:20:15.962+0100", "status": "CANCEL_REQUESTED", "type": "Full", [...]

Impact

This deployment evaluation and all evaluations after it will never be run.

Conditions

Cancelling a queued deployment evaluation.
