Hi Bertrand,

You are trying to upgrade the target system and you want to keep a log of
the changes in the source system, right?

We have a way to put an agent in passive mode, that means it will not
deliver any packages, and it only queues them. When you want to sync the
target systems you would switch the state to active.

Replaying is not currently possible, unless we clone the state of the
agent just before switching it to active. The agent state is made of sling
queues + binaries for distribution packages. We can probably implement an
agent that has a snapshot state and can be rewind to that state.
