The example queue manager 520 of the illustrated example of FIG. 5 manages a queue of instructions to be executed by the example management agent 350. In some examples, instructions are added to the queue at the request of an administrator. However, instructions may be added to the queue in response to any other event such as, a scheduled task, an error identified by a management agent, etc. In some examples, multiple different queues are managed corresponding to multiple different management agents that work in communication with the management endpoint 340. Upon receipt of an indication of whether an instruction in the queue has been executed at a component server, the example queue manager 520 removes the instruction from the instruction queue 530 associated with that component server. However, in some examples, the instruction may remain in the queue, but be labeled with a status of the execution of the instruction. In this manner, when a request is received for an instruction to be executed, a result of such query might be limited to only those instructions where execution has not already been attempted.
