MINIMUM_RETRY_THRESHOLD

String

This setting is used with multiple Executors. It indicates how many retries are attempted to start a Build before a different Executor is chosen. Setting to 0 means there are no restrictions on how many tries the build job needs to have. This value should be kept intentionally small (three or less) to ensure failovers happen quickly during infrastructure failures. You must specify a value for this setting. For example, Kubernetes is set as the first executor and EC2 as the second executor. If you want the last attempt to run a job to always be executed on EC2 and not Kubernetes, you can set the Kubernetes executor’s MINIMUM_RETRY_THRESHOLD to 1 and EC2’s MINIMUM_RETRY_THRESHOLD to 0 (defaults to 0 if not set). In this case, the Kubernetes' MINIMUM_RETRY_THRESHOLD retries_remaining(1) would evaluate to False, therefore falling back to the second executor configured.

DISABLE_PUSHES

Boolean

Disables pushes of new content to the registry while retaining all other functionality. Differs from read-only mode because database is not set as read-only. When DISABLE_PUSHES is set to true, the Red Hat Quay garbage collector is disabled. As a result, when PERMANENTLY_DELETE_TAGS is enabled, using the Red Hat Quay UI to permanently delete a tag does not result in the immediate deletion of a tag. Instead, the image stays in the backend storage until DISABLE_PUSHES is set to false, which re-enables the garbage collector. Red Hat Quay administrators should be aware of this caveat when using DISABLE_PUSHES and PERMANENTLY_DELETE_TAGS together.

Default: False
