Deactivating and reactivating a Content Delivery environment for maintenance

Shut down a Content Delivery environment gracefully if you want to deactivate that environment for maintenance reasons. In practice, this means that the Publisher does not pick up any new publish actions directed at the environment (which in turn means they remain in the Publish Queue until the environment is reactivated.

Procedure

  1. On a Content Manager server machine on which Topology Manager is also installed, run the following PowerShell command:
    Disable-TtmCdEnvironment -Id CDENVID

    where CDENVID is the identifier of the Content Delivery environment you want to deactivate.

  2. Perform the required maintenance on the Content Delivery environment.
  3. Bring the environment back up by running the following PowerShell command:
    Enable-TtmCdEnvironment -Id CDENVID

    where CDENVID is the same as before.
