You can redeploy a network service or its component to apply configuration changes, update your software to the latest version, or recover if problems occur.

Note that redeploying may result in short-term interruptions or temporary inoperability. When planning and coordinating redeployment activities, we recommend taking into account your organization's circumstances to minimize the disruptions.
