User atomtm asked: "Hello everyone! I appreciate your understanding regarding my lack of knowledge. Could someone clarify when it is necessary to perform a 'Rebuild All' on a project? Thank you in advance!" To elaborate, a complete project rebuild is typically required when you make significant hardware modifications—not just the simple addition or removal of a card. For instance, adding a new rack or disabling CCOTF might trigger the need for this action. Personally, I rarely find myself using the 'Rebuild All' option; I usually only resort to it when the 'Build Changes' option appears grayed out, which is quite infrequent for me. Feel free to share your insights and experiences!
