Why is my environment paused?
Kaleido pauses unused environments of Starter plan subscribers to limit resource usage to users actively using their networks. Environments under a Consortium owned by an Organization on the “Starter” plan receives an initial 1 week grace period, after which Kaleido pauses environments that are inactive.
- Ethereum environments are considered inactive when there are no transactions committed to blocks for 72 hours.
- Corda environments are considered inactive when there are no notarized transactions for 72 hours.
- Fabric environments are considered inactive when there are no blocks in default channel for 72 hours.
Kaleido does not automatically pause any environments in Consortia owned by Organizations on a paid plan.
Note: For ethereum environments, if transactions are trapped in a node’s transaction pool queue, an environment will pause due to lack of transactions on the chain.
