Pausing the Perl engine

To temporarily postpone the processing of new jobs, pause the Perl engine.

Note: If you want to act directly on the database, for example, to back it up or restore it, you must stop all running Build Forge services and processes first. In this case, pausing the engine is not sufficient and can result in inconsistencies, corruption, or both.
  1. To pause the engine, click Administration > System and locate the Pause Build Forge Engine property using the Filter box. The system displays a panel for editing the Pause Build Forge Engine setting.
  2. Change the property to Y and click Save Config. The engine pauses, but any currently running projects continue. You must wait for any active jobs to complete to ensure that no data is being written to the database.

To reactivate the engine, change the value of the property back to N, and click Save Config again.
