Abort Stage

Aborts the Stage and any currently running Gates or Steps in the Stage

Requires Manage Stage Execution permission. The Stage can only be aborted while in a running state (Gates Running, Gates Completed, Steps Running).

Replay Stage

Replay the Stage. Any previously executed Gates or Steps, successful or otherwise, will be replayed as well.

Requires Manage Stage Execution permission. The Stage can only be replayed while in a halted state (Aborted, Failed, Gates Failed, Rejected).

View Execution Variables

The Pipeline used by the Release is able to define runtime Variables to customize execution logic in real time. This button will open a view to visualize the current values of any such Pipeline Variables.

Any user with Read permission on the Release can view this information.

Upload Execution Info

Allows the viewing or modification of the Stage Execution Info.

Any user with Read permission on the Release can view the Stage Execution Info, but modifying requires the Upload Execution Info permission.

Status

Description

Notes

Aborted

The Stage was aborted.

In most cases this is due to a user manually aborting the Stage. There are a select few background processes that may abort a Stage. For example when Force Completing a Release any running stages will be aborted.

Failed

The Stage has failed.

This is typically the result of a Step within the Stage failing.

Gates Completed

Gates have completed and Steps are waiting to process.

When a Stage is in this status it typically means there is another Pipeline Execution running Steps in the same Stage. Once the latter execution completes this Stage will move on to Running Steps.

See https://flexagon.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/FD80FD90/pages/1056172293610926694641/Frequently+Asked+Questions#Why-is-the-Pipeline-Execution-stuck-in-Gates-Complete-status%3F if you are concerned that a snapshot is staying in this status too long.

Gates Failed

One or more Gates within the Stage have failed.

Gates Running

The Stage is currently running Gates.

Note that any Gate waiting on some user interaction or external system still falls under this status. Waiting on user approval in an Approval Gate for example.

Not Started

The Stage has not begun to execute. This will only occur if a Stage prior to this one is still executing.

Out of Date

The Stage has been superseded and is now Out of Date.

See https://flexagon.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/FD80FD90/pages/1056172293610926694641/Frequently+Asked+Questions#What-does-Out-of-Date-mean%3F for more information.

At any given time there may multiple Pipeline Executions running for a Release. If at any point the latest Pipeline Execution proceeds to a later Stage than previous Pipeline Executions, they will be marked as Out of Date.

Rejected

The Stage has been rejected by a user, most commonly via an Approval Gate.

Skipped

The Stage has been skipped.

This can only occur via a Stage precondition in the Pipeline Definition or by providing the Skip Stages input during Snapshot creation.

Steps Running

The Stage is currently running Steps.

Success

The Stage has been successfully completed.

Status

Description

Notes

Aborted

The Step or Gate was aborted.

Note that users cannot directly abort Steps or Gates but rather abort the Stage, which indirectly results in an Aborted Step or Gate.

Failed

The Step or Gate failed executing.

Perhaps the most broad status, Failed can occur in a number of ways:

  • Misconfiguration in the Pipeline Definition

  • Failed executions as part of a Step

  • A quality gate not meeting its successful criteria.

Pending Approval

The Gate is awaiting an approval

Both Approval Gate and External Approval Gate will be in this status while waiting for the Approval.

Pending Review

The Step is waiting for Review

Most commonly seen in the Predeploy and Predeploy All Steps

Rejected

The Step has been Rejected by the User

Running

The Step or Gate is currently running

Out of Date

The Gate is Out of Date. See https://flexagon.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/FD80FD90/pages/1056172293610926694641/Frequently+Asked+Questions#What-does-Out-of-Date-mean%3F for more information.

Due to the nature of Out of Date, it is only possible for Gates to be Out of Date.

Scheduled

The Step or Gate is currently scheduled

Skipped

The Step or Gate has been skipped due to a precondition being false

Note that skipped is only displayed in the case of a precondition. A user manually skipping or overriding a Gate or Step will show a status of Success.

Success

The Step or Gate has completed successfully.
