Notes

Note

  • The ACI MultiSite PATCH API has a deficiency requiring some objects to be referenced by index. This can cause silent corruption on concurrent access when changing/removing an object as the wrong object may be referenced. This module is affected by this deficiency.

  • This module was written to support Multi Site Orchestrator v2.1 or newer. Some or all functionality may not work on earlier versions.
