Note:
If you retry committing without pausing the replication, warning of replication will persist in the health check result but commit process will proceed.
However, it is highly recommended to pause Replication.
Pausing Replication isn't recommend just only for commiting I/O Module, but also for OE Upgrade, Module addition, DIP Conversion and any other activities which would run Health Check in the operation.
This is to prevent unexpected SP and replication issues due to reboot.
* Also, If other errors are generated, will need to resolve them.
