As you design a process that uses autoscaling mode, keep the following in mind:
As you get started building a process intended for autoscaling, you'll want to consider how you'll debug and monitor those processes for optimal development and execution.
If you are building a brand new process model, we recommend that you enable autoscaling before you begin. An icon is shown when autoscaling mode is enabled, and this makes it easy to see whether a model is configured to run in that mode.
When autoscaling mode is enabled, the process modeler palette shows only compatible nodes.
The modeler also shows you which configurations are not supported or ignored when you validate the process model. These validations can help prevent you from developing a process model that relies on unsupported configurations. These validations won't appear if the autoscaling option is disabled.
Tip: You can enable autoscaling on existing process models as well, but you may notice many validations alerting you to unsupported nodes or configurations.
You can find additional information in the Monitor view of your application. The Autoscaled Process Activity tab is the central location to view metrics about your process executions.> appian-style-note
Note: If a process execution had any errors, you'll see up to 5 errors for each of those processes.
