VMs still running after app suspended

How long should it take for all VMs to be shut down once an app is suspended?

In theory it should be quick, but suspend/resume are buggy and need to be deprecated. Scaling the count to zero is the recommended way now that you can set counts directly:

flyctl scale count 0

Thanks, that worked.

It says this command requires a credit card. The suspend command is deprecated. How do I pause an app?

Yup, you’ve got it. We do require a credit card to scale to 0 (pause an app). Even paused apps require us to provision resources to keep them runnable :sweat_smile:
