While trying to deploy KB4019926 to SCCM CB 1702 using in-console servicing. The hotfix is downloaded and replicated to the hierarchy but installation never started.

While verify CMUPDATE.log: Waiting for changes to the “D:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\inboxes\cmupdate.box” directories, updates will be polled in 600 seconds…” for a couple of days now

Step 1: Verify HMan.log: INFO: 2.ESC file was found. Easy setup package needs to be updated.
Get update package 82258EB9-88F1-427A-8B42-5A5C7FD185FF, \\SERVERNAME\EasySetupPayLoad\82258EB9-88F1-427A-8B42-5A5C7FD185FF
