AWS mgn documentation change

Service: mgn · 2026-06-19 · Documentation low

File: mgn/latest/ug/add-server-server-page.md

Summary

Added documentation for editing source server fields (User-provided ID, FQDN, Platform) and added 'Delete from service' option for removing non-replicating servers

Security assessment

The changes describe routine administrative functions for server management. While server deletion is a privileged action, there's no evidence this addresses a specific security vulnerability or weakness. The documentation focuses on operational procedures rather than security features.
