The system works differently depending upon what type of equipment is on the boiler. How many thermostats, pumps, zone valves, hot water coil, etc

A steam boiler may use a thermostat to control a buildings temperature. The thermostat may fire the burner, which will heat until it makes low steam pressure. There are often two operating pressure controls that limit how much steam pressure is made. There is a high limit safety that prevents too much steam pressure in the system.There is also a low water cutoff and water feeder control that makes sure the boiler has sufficient water before it allows the burner to fire. Sometimes there are motorized valves directing steam to several locations

This would vary with the size of the burner and the piping from the oil tank to the burners pump(s). Essentially, when whatever control tells the burner to fire, it starts an oil feed pump,which pumps oil from the tank to the burner, which blows atomized oil into the firebox, gets ignited, confirms ignition and boils the water

This will give you a general idea.
