Maintenance Mode

Post by perjonsson1960 » 1 person likes this post

Folks,

If I am temporarily going to shut down a server, or restart a server, managing one or more repositories, is it recommended to put those repositories in Maintenance Mode first? Maybe I need to replace a memory DIMM, or maybe I need to restart due to Windows Update.

I am wondering about the backup copy jobs, which are continuous. Do they need to be disabled before I can put the repositories they use in Maintenance Mode? Or are the jobs simply put on hold until the repositories are back online?

Hi Per,

Correct, you have to disable all the copy jobs targeting a certain extent before putting it into the Maintenance Mode, otherwise jobs will fail with a warning: "Waiting for job [JobName] to finish".

Thanks
