Limitations

Description
Changing tag parameters requires DeviceHub restart Virtualbox deployment shows occasional TUI message with Login incorrect error. This can be rectified with an instance restart. The default network should be updated before deploying an application. Configurations changes upon a network change can cause deployed applications to disappear A force deletion of a default connector doesn't remove it. Make sure to gracefully deactivate cloud activation Timeout for a backup file upload is ~ 5-6 sec, which can cause an issue for remote users Occasionally a delay occurs on Litmus Edge upgrade deployment made from Litmus Edge Manager
