Minor disruptions during system improvements

During the Netop Portal updates, when “minor disruptions” are mentioned, the following things can be impacted:

• Users who are logged into the Netop Portal interface are going to get disconnected from the real-time connection to the Portal service (the list of devices and sessions won't update automatically, no notification when a new session is present, etc). The connection reconnects automatically (random delay between 30 - 120 seconds + retry delay if the service gets overwhelmed).
• Hosts get disconnected. They reconnect automatically (random delay between 30 - 120 seconds + retry delay if the service gets overwhelmed).
• Guests are disconnected from the Netop Portal services. They do not reconnect automatically. In order to reconnect, it is necessary that the Guest user restarts the Guest or logs out & logs in the Netop Portal communication profile.

NOTE: The above items only take place if the account is configured to use the new Connection Manager. To sign up for notifications about Netop Portal status: https://status.connect.backdrop.cloud/
