OK so i'm using version 4.7 and I'm trying to plan for fixing workflow errors should they occur in a production scenario and I've seen the following video that uses the Process Management Tool in Visual Studio to retry workflows with new fixed versions of a workflow:

I've also read the following article on the Live Instance Management (LIM) API :

I'm wondering why you would go down the LIM route when the Process Management Add-in seems like the quicker option of fixing a problem. Does the Process Management tool use the LIM API behind the scenes? Would I only use LIM if I wanted to automate error fixing or write my own application to do more than what the Process Management tool does? If so - does anyone know what additional stuff you can do with LIM that the Process Manageement tool can't?

Thanks for any suggestions here!
