Description

Enabling staging after a site has a lot of data is not supported. However, the option to enable staging is still available even if staging cannot be enabled. So, the option to enable staging should be disabled if a site has too much data to enable staging.

It might be easier to just check if there's any data in the site instead of checking if there's too much data since it's hard to determine what's "too much".

Alternatively, make the option to enable staging part of the site creation process.

Sam, the problem is that there is no specific reason that prevents staging from being activated that could be detected before hand. The problem is that if there are lots of data the process might take way too long or even not be able to finish.

So, the way this "bug" is worded I'm not sure there is a solution for it.

Jorge, I agree with you. Which is why I added my follow up comment saying maybe we should just disable the staging option if there's any data at all. Or make enabling staging a part of the site creation process instead of something you can do later on.

So should we document this (LRDOCS-331) or is there going to be a patch for this?
