Hi Folks,
This is regarding engine checkpoints. It is my understanding, that during checkpoints the gateways (which affected by the process) are temporary not available for processing. Now, if we have let's say a significant size and many gateways for process-exec and others, it basically make the system "frozen" during checkpointing procedure. And, if checkpoint is scheduled, we often see "warn checkpointing is needed" instead of "OK" from checkengine result.
Now, what if we have a scheduled script, which will look for those "checkpointing needed" messages and initiate the checkpoint just for that particular gateway, then wait and proceed to the rest of the list, and continue to check all the gateways during its run? In that case (IMO), only processes need to be check pointing will be fired, and rest will be available for processing.
So, Appian Gurus, is it something worth to consider or it really doesn't matter from the system point of view?

You can most likely remove the complexity of monitoring for checkpointing needed messages and run a scheduled checkpoint as required, staggering the checkpoint for each engine to distribute load more evenly. More info in the docs, in case you haven't seen it yet:
