Provisioning brake

If you have a system on which you want to control some provisioning operations (create, update, delete), then the provisioning break is the right tool. With a provisioning brake you can monitor how many times a specific operation is carried out. You can also set warning or disable limits for each operation. After the limit is exceeded (either warning or disable), a notification is sent to all recipients for the specific provisioning brake configuration. After the disable limit is exceeded for an operation, that operation won't be executed any more, until administrators manually check the current situation.

It's also possible to create a global provisioning brake configuration. This configuration will be applied to all systems. The global configuration is specific for provisioning operation (create, update, delete).

Usage of the provisioning brake from the administrator's point of view is explained in the Admin tutorial.
