Real-time data flow won't restart automatically after it's been stopped manually
Our customized real-time data flow won't restart automatically after it's been stopped manually. But the ootb data flow will.
Can we make our own customized real-time data flow auto-restart-able?
Thank you.

@MichaelC16831869 When you manually stop a customized real-time data flow in Pega, it does not restart automatically because manual intervention is considered intentional. However, Pega's OOTB data flows may have specific configurations or system jobs (like auto-restart on failure) that allow them to restart. To make your customized real-time data flow restart automatically, you can configure it using a job scheduler or agent that checks the data flow status periodically and restarts it if it’s not running. Alternatively, you can use auto-restart options in the data flow configuration (available in some Pega versions) by setting pyAutoRestartEnabled to true via a data flow run options activity or use the DNode API in a custom activity to programmatically restart it.

@SairohithThank you so much for the response. That was exactly what we have implemented for the customized dataflow. Thanks for letting us know the different restart mechanism between customized and OOTB data flow.
Cheers.
