Stop and start server option In ACE SaaS

We requesting to add a feature that enables the stopping and starting of the integration server with a single click. Currently, this is managed by adjusting the replica count within the ACE integration runtime. To streamline this process, a dedicated button should be introduced to facilitate automatic stopping and starting of the server. Additionally, the server’s status should be dynamically displayed: ‘Stopped’ when not in operation and ‘Started’ when active.

    Thank you for taking the time to raise this enhancement request and apologies for the delay in updating its status. We agree this would be a good enhancement for the product. Currently, a user can scale an integration runtime down to zero replicas but this presents unfortunate usability in the dashboard because the IR will appear on its tile as having 0/0 replicas yet also be classified as in "Ready" state, with a warning presented that the API is not currently accessible. We would like to change this behaviour and present start/stop menu options. When in stopped state the tile should show 0/3 replicas in state of Stopped. As part of the same feature we may also expose a new status for Hibernate use cases. Status of the idea is updated to Future Consideration. [IBM internal reference note appconnect-planning 3669]
