In order to ensure data consistency, a purge automatically blocks operations that are associated with asset changes and project deployment. Before starting a purge, users should be advised to avoid using the Business Control Center until the purge ends; otherwise, errors might occur if they try to access assets affected by the purge.
During a purge, the following ATG Content Administration operations are blocked and generate error messages:
Create assets.
Check in assets—for example, advance a project to verify deployment.
Check out assets—for example, add assets to a project.
Resolve asset conflicts.
Remove assets from a project.
Delete a project.
You can advance a project to deploy; however, the deployment does not start until the purge is complete.
