We didn't face any implementation issues by the time of installation, It was very smooth and took minimal downtime to install the product and apply the relevant policies for our setup. Same way while installing the High availability box installation also went very smoothly and was made online without any downtime. The policy application and reflection is happening immediately so the implementation was very smooth and safe
