I was recently tasked to evaluate a very large application (9 data models, 37 capsules) for the purpose of streamlining and estimating complexity of the application.

Some tasks are launched and, as an administrator, you can't stop them. It's very annoying, especially as there's no explanation. So you may have to open a ticket Would it be possible to have clear information about why a running task cannot be stopped? And perhaps have the means to stop it anyway, knowing the consequences?

Dear all, The database is systematically reloaded after a DB profile modification / creation. On my side I have a very huge DB (160 Gb) and reloading the DB takes a long time (about 20 minutes) and freezes the Board server for end users. So when you have several profiles to modify, we are blocking users for a long time. It…
