# Disaster Recovery
|
|
|
|
This document describes a feature that allows to easily disable some important but computationally
|
|
expensive parts of the application, in order to relieve stress on the database in an ongoing downtime.
|
|
|
|
## `ci_queueing_disaster_recovery`
|
|
|
|
This feature flag, if enabled temporarily disables fair scheduling on shared runners.
|
|
This can help reduce system resource usage on the `jobs/request` endpoint
|
|
by significantly reducing computations being performed.
|
|
|
|
Side effects:
|
|
|
|
- In case of a large backlog of jobs, the jobs will be processed in the order
|
|
they were put in the system instead of balancing the jobs across many projects
|
|
- Projects which are out of quota will be run. This affects
|
|
only jobs that were created during the last hour, as prior jobs are canceled
|
|
by a periodic background worker (`StuckCiJobsWorker`).
