To send pipeline actions, go to the "Target Overview" tab. If previously deployed pipelines are available, the pipelines appear at the target. The availability of the actions depends on the pipeline's status, as shown in the table above. Aside from the "Activate" action, all other pipeline actions depend on a configured data connection in the AI Inference Server application.
You can execute the following pipeline actions by clicking the following buttons:
| ① | Activate/Deactivate |
| ② | Start |
| ③ | Pause |
| ④ | Stop |
| ⑤ | Delete |
Activating a pipeline
When you click the "Activate" button ①, the pipeline is activated in the Embedder application. Please note that a pipeline can only be activated if its status is "AVAILABLE".
Note:
In AI Inference Server v1.5.0, multiple pipelines can be activated simultaneously. However, a maximum limit has been introduced. Once this limit is reached, neither the AI Inference Server nor the AI Asset Manager can activate additional pipelines. To activate more pipelines, manual deactivation must be performed in the AI Inference Serve or AI Asset Manager using the "Deactivate" button.
Deactivating a pipeline
When you click the "Deactivate" button ①, the pipeline is deactivated in the Embedder application. A pipeline can be deactivated if its status is "MAPPED", "WARNING", or "ERROR".
Note:
In AI Inference Server v1.5.0, multiple pipelines can be activated simultaneously.
Starting a pipeline
After a pipeline is activated, it can have one of two statuses: "MAPPED" or "WARNING". If the pipeline is in the MAPPED status, all necessary settings are likely configured in the Embedder application, and deployment can be initiated by pressing the "Start" button ②. If the pipeline is in the "WARNING" status, some configurations are missing from the Embedder application, preventing deployment from starting.
Pausing and stopping a pipeline
Once a pipeline starts, either from the "Target Overview" page or in the Embedder application, its status changes to “RUNNING”. This pipeline can then be paused or stopped. To pause the pipeline, press the "Pause" button ③, which temporarily suspends the pipeline run without completely stopping it. To completely stop the pipeline, press the "Stop" button ④, which ends all pipeline operations.
Deleting a pipeline
You can delete a pipeline from the Embedder by clicking the "Delete" button ⑤. When you delete a pipeline, the AI Asset Manager sends an undeploy request to the AI Inference Server. If the pipeline is in "RUNNING" or "WAITING" status, it cannot be deleted; you must stop the pipeline first.
