Activate or Deactivate a Gates Setup
Activating a gates setup will enable the scheduled gates runs. After activation, if you must edit the gates setup, you will need to deactivate it first. To change the status of the gates setup, use the Status drop-down menu in the Gates Setup log.
You can make edits while the setup is inactive, including: adding or removing phases; reordering phases; add, modify or remove conditions within a phase.
Some notes about activating/deactivating gates setup:
- Reactivating an active shell: If you temporarily deactivate a shell that is in process, and then reactivate it, the gates check will start over at the first phase. This is because the setup needs to check all phases for new phase additions or new gate conditions that may have been added. You can manually update the phases by clicking the Refresh button for gates in User mode. This will evaluate all phases starting from the first phase, even if the phase has been marked Complete, and mark the first phase as the current phase.
Note: This may trigger email notifications regarding gates advancement, as set up in the Settings tab (where the users who are notified are defined), and those users' email subscription settings (User Preferences).
- While a gates setup is Inactive: No scheduled gates run will be done. To manually advance phases in User Mode Gates for the shell, the gates setup must be active.
- View-Only and Inactive shells: If a shell has the View-Only or Inactive status, the gates setup is inactivated, and you must manually reactivate the setup.
