Hi,

I am trying to run a long running task asynchronously and monitor results at the end. (My target are not windows. I am just passing in windows system information to target linux host)  
My tasks don’t run asynchronously. They run one after another.

I include another file with two tasks in it that run one after another.

What am I doing wrong here?
