Overview

The recipe queue is used to stored pending recipe requests before they are sent to a recipe processor.

Queuing Behaviour

The recipe queue is a simple FIFO (first in first out) queue. When a compatible recipe processor is available (all previous recipes have completed), the oldest request in the queue is dispatched.

Pausing the Queue

The recipe queue may be paused by clicking the "pause" link in the top right hand corner of the "recipe queue" table. When the queue is paused, no pending requests will be sent to any recipe processor. New requests may continue to be queued, however these are limited by the queuing behvaiour of the build queue. Pausing the recipe queue effectively stops all build activity on the pulse™ servers (although a running recipe will continue until it is completed). To resume recipe dispatching, click the "resume" link which replaces the "pause" link while the queue is paused.
