How to stop initialization in Hybris

In this blog post, I am going to explain how can we stop others to do initialization from HAC.

In real time projects if a developer did initialization means all the developed code will be lost to prevent this situation we need to lock the initialization process.

In the following steps, I guide you to stop the initialization process.

Step 1:- Add the below properties in local.properties file.

                 system.unlocking.disabled=true

Step 2:-  Do ant build & start the server.

Step 3:-  Login to HAC and check Platform/Initialization

 Note:-  We can also do this from HAC without restarting the server.

    * Goto Platform/Configuration and search for this property and make it true.
