_**Apparently I posted this in the wrong (FinalBuilder) forum. I'm reposting here.**_  
  
  
I have a large DEPLOY build that I want to run exclusive of all other builds.  
  
That is, I have to be sure builds don't walk on each other. Specifically, I have a couple of CI builds that could interfere with the larger DEPLOY build.  
  
How can I guarantee that all other jobs are put on hold once the DEPLOY job starts running?

Hi Jay,  
  
You can’t currently do this. We do however have a new Shared Resource Locks feature in testing at the moment which will allow you to specify that builds or stages must acquire a lock before running. &nbsp;All things being equal, this will be released to beta in the next few days.

Thank you for the response. I’ll look forward to that.   
 If you’d like for me to work with you on the beta, please advise.
