› Manage tenant actions

Manage tenant actions

You can create, update, and delete a tenant asynchronously. Initiating a tenant action creates a background task to perform that action. You can continue to use the Tenant Management System even if these actions are in progress.

On the Tenant Management System, you can manage the following tenant actions:

  • Retry
  • Recover
  • Activate
  • Deactivate
  • Update database server

When a tenant action is in progress, it displays the following statuses depending on the action being performed:

  • Creating

  • Updating

  • Deleting

On completion of creating or updating action, the tenant becomes active.

When an action is in progress for a tenant, another action cannot be performed.

If a tenant action fails, the system does the following:

  • Displays the following statuses depending on the action that failed:

    • Create Failed

    • Update Failed

    • Delete Failed

  • Displays an error message in the Action Status Message column.

  1. On the header bar of your Tenant Management System page, click Tenant Actions > Retry.
  2. To recover an action, click Tenant Actions > Recover.

    Recover tenant action deletes the tenant data for the Create Failed action.

Retry the action

If a tenant action fails, you can retry the action.

On the header bar, click Tenant Actions > Retry.

Recover an action

If a retry fails, you can recover the tenant with the previous working configuration.

On the header bar, click Tenant Actions > Recover.

The recover tenant action deletes the tenant data for the Create Failed action.

Activate and deactivate a tenant

You can activate the development or production status of a specific tenant, and de-activate an active tenant.

When there are multiple inactive and active tenants, you can activate and deactivate all these tenants in one go.

The "Activate All Tenants" and "Deactivate All Tenants" options are enabled when there is at least one tenant available.
