    About this task

    By default, it is not allowed to apply more than a single action to a CI. You can change that behavior by defining pairs of CI actions as compatible and therefore these actions can be applied simultaneously to a CI. For example you can specify that Provisioning and Patching are compatible CI actions, which lets you apply both to a CI at the same time.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > Configuration > Compatible CI Actions.
    2. On the Compatible CI Actions page click New and fill out the form.
      Table 1. Compatible CI Actions
      Field Description
      Action First action in the compatibility actions pair.
      Compatible Action Second action in the compatibility actions pair.

    Result

    An API can successfully apply the two specified actions simultaneously to a CI.
