Enable Deploy maintenance mode

This topic describes how to use maintenance mode in Deploy to safely restart the server and temporarily prevent new deployments and tasks from starting.

When the system is in maintenance mode:

• Deployments that have already started will be allowed to finish. You can use the Monitoring section to view deployments that are in progress.
• The admin user can continue to start new tasks.
• Scheduled tasks are not prevented from starting.

In a cluster setup, you must enable maintenance mode for each master node separately.
