Configure and Activate Service Connection Cloud Provider Redundancy for Panorama Managed Prisma Access

1. (Existing Prisma Access Deployments Only) If you have upgraded your plugin to a version that supports cloud provider redundancy, perform a Commit and Push operation after you upgrade to the supported plugin.

   Service connection multi-cloud redundancy is supported starting with Prisma Access 3.1 Innovation. After you upgrade the Cloud Services plugin, you must perform a Commit and Push to have the cloud redundancy changes appear in the UI.

   If you have a new deployment (not an upgrade), skip this step.
