Type
SwitchKit API message
Purpose
Use the SK_AllOutOfService message to automatically take all referenced entities out-of-service on any configured node prior to sending another configuration.
Description
SwitchManager takes all entities found on any configured node out-of-service after receiving this message. Sending this message saves you from having to explicitly add ServiceStateConfig messages for each entity.
Taking entities out-of-service prior to configuration is important to prevent system purges caused by configuring a channel that is in-service.
Important! Use of AllOutOfService is not recommended for dynamic configurations.
