Why is my server locked?

Clanforge temporarily locks a game server during sensitive operations to prevent server management actions, such as starting, stopping, or restarting the server. Operations in which Clanforge might lock a game server include:
  • Image installations
  • Scaling changes
  • Maintenance operations

Image installations

Clanforge locks all affected game servers while installing game images on a machine to prevent the game servers from starting up before the installation completes. Affected game servers are game servers configured to use the game image that the machine is installing or updating.

Scaling changes

Clanforge locks game servers after scaling down the machine. After the machine capacity is necessary again, Clanforge unlocks the game servers.

Maintenance operations

Clanforge locks game servers on machines before performing maintenance work, such as system updates.
