Application Control
The Application Control tab gives you full authority over the lifecycle of your deployed application. Whether you're performing routine maintenance, recovering from an issue, or testing changes, this tab is your command center for starting, stopping, pausing, redeploying, or removing the app.
How To Access
Applications → Management → Manage App → Local App Management → Application Control
Open the Management tab in the Applications menu, select an application from My Active Apps, click Manage, then go to the Local App Management section and open the Application Control tab.
Backend Selector
At the top right you'll find a FluxNode IP selector, letting you choose which node you want to inspect or control. This allows you to manage individual node instances of your app. A reload button is also available to refresh the list of currently active FluxNodes running your application.
Overview Of Functions
Control
General options to control running status of Application.
Start App
Launches the application if it's currently stopped.
Stop App
Gracefully stops the running application and terminates its processes.
Restart App
Stops and immediately starts the app again — useful for applying configuration changes or recovering from temporary issues.
Pause
The Pause command suspends all processes in the specified Application.
Pause App
Suspends all active processes within the app without shutting it down. This is like hitting a “pause button” on execution.
Unpause App
Resumes previously paused processes and returns the app to its active running state.
Monitoring
Controls Application Monitoring.
Start Monitoring
Start the monitoring process.
Stop Monitoring
Stop the monitoring process.
Stop & Delete Data
Stop monitoring process, and delete all history data.
Redeploy
Reinstall your application from the docker repo. Soft option, keeps data on the instance, Hard option deletes everything and gets installed like a fresh install.
Soft Redeploy App
Restarts the app while preserving persistent data. Ideal for safe updates or config changes.
Hard Redeploy App
Wipes persistent data and redeploys the app from scratch. Use with caution — this is best for full resets or destructive testing.
Pro tip: Always use Soft Redeploy unless you intentionally want to delete stored application state.
Remove
Stops, uninstalls and removes all App data from this FluxNode. Use this when you want to migrate this application from the current FluxNode to a new one.
Remove App
Uninstalls the app and deletes all associated data from the current selected FluxNode running the application. This will result in the app being deployed on a different FluxNode.
