::: note If you perform any infrastructure configuration changes (add, delete or rename VMs) or changes to Veeam ONE Business View groups, Orchestrator will not automatically apply these changes to plans that are currently being executed or tested — such plans are ‘locked’ and cannot be edited. The changes will take effect only if the plans enter the *VERIFIED*, *NEEDS VERIFIED* or *NOT VERIFIED* state. ::: CDP replica plans can acquire the following **modes**:
