Pause option in AEM replication agent queue

At some point we need to stop the replication from AEM author to publisher for sometime or few minutes, so that no content get published from author to publisher instance. This may we need to handle the maintenance window or stop accepting new content from authors. So question here is how we can do this without disabling the AEM replication queue. 

How to pause the replication agent queue?

Out of the box AEM replication agent queue have an option "pause", using that pause option we could stop the replication. When you will pause the queue then all content which will get published by authors during that time frame will be enlist in the queue but those will not get processed. Pause option will only pause your queue but your replication queue will be still enabled and active.

Active AEM replication queue:

Active AEM replication queue

Paused AEM replication queue:

Paused AEM replication queue


Points to be remember:

  • When we will restart our instance then this paused status will be override and we will find queue is active.
  • By default it will pause for an hour.

Hope this help you to understand the pause option and its role in AEM replication queue.
