Set Server Mode

Description

  • If the server switches from maintenance to production mode, the system waits a configured amount of time (default 1 minute) for the completion of all schema management requests (see Schema Operations).
  • If the server switches from production to maintenance mode, the system waits for outstanding profile or service-related functions to complete.
    While the system is attempting to switch modes, all web service requests are denied with HTTP Status Code 503 (Service Unavailable).
