Answer: B

Explanation:

According to the Installing and Uninstalling a Hotfix on Quantum Maestro Orchestrators, page 1, when you apply a hotfix using gclish, the MHO distributes the hotfix to all SGMs in the Security Group. The SGMs install the hotfix and reboot one by one, in ascending order of their SGM IDs. The SGMs wait for the previous SGM to finish rebooting before starting their own reboot. This ensures that there is no outage for the entire Security Group.
