1. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions for managing execution of a task on a managed node communicatively coupled over a network to a management controller, the instructions, when executed by the management controller configured to:

  • determine at least one execution policy for the task prior to forwarding the task to the managed node over the network, wherein the at least one execution policy comprises;

    a minimum battery life of the managed node required for the task execution;

    a criticality, of the task based on whether the task is a security patch for the managed node; and

    a required residual battery life of the managed node following the task execution, wherein the required residual battery life of the managed node adjusts based on the criticality of the task;

    schedule the task for execution;

    receive, by the management controller, system information data from the managed node, wherein the system information comprises network connectivity information of the managed node;

    based at least on the received system information, determine if the received system information complies with the at least one execution policy; and

    if the received system information complies with the at least one execution policy, forward the task from the management controller to the managed node for execution.
