Pause Cluster
To temporarily halt all updates and deployments to a specific cluster, use the SveltosCluster.Spec.Paused field. When set to true
, it instructs Sveltos to pause all operations for that cluster.
What does this mean? No new add-ons, applications, or configurations will be deployed, and any existing ones managed by Sveltos will not be updated, even if their corresponding ClusterProfile or Profile is changed.
This feature is particularly useful for:
-
Maintenance: Pausing a cluster while you perform manual updates or troubleshoot issues.
-
Troubleshooting: Temporarily stopping Sveltos from applying changes to a cluster that is experiencing problems.
-
Control: Gaining fine-grained control over when a cluster receives updates, which is important in environments where changes must be carefully coordinated.
To resume operations, set the SveltosCluster.Spec.Paused back to false
or delete the field. Sveltos will resume its reconciliation loop and apply any pending changes.
