N/A

Workflow automation is not supported in High Availability (HA) environments
When a vFoglight Management Server that is running in High Availability mode fails over, all in-progress tasks fail and are unrecoverable by the system. There is no workaround available for this issue.

N/A

Workflow automation is not supported on Federation Master Servers
vFoglight workflow automation should not be installed and must not be used on the Federation Master because active tasks update topology objects, which is not permitted on the Federation Master. Workflow automation may be installed and used on the Federated Child(ren) as normal.

N/A

Unbounded Threads
When an automated task completes, an associated thread is released and all resources (such as memory) are returned to the system. It is possible to create an automated task which contains an action that waits for an event that never happens (example: get email) In this case, the thread is never released and continues to consume resources of the system. If enough such automated tasks are initiated and not released, the automation system, in theory, can consume all available resources and cannot be stopped.
