Summary

Octopus has introduced a feature allowing users to deactivate tenants, which will exclude them from license calculations while still permitting edits, in response to customer feedback. This new capability, expected to be available to Cloud customers soon and self-hosted ones in the 2025.1 release, enables users to manage tenant states on the Tenant Settings page, with support for the Terraform provider and CLI. Deployments and runbook runs are restricted to enabled tenants, automatically filtering out deactivated ones, and attempts to deploy to deactivated tenants through the CLI or API will result in errors. The deactivation feature offers increased flexibility and control over deployments, aiding in managing licensing requirements and organizing environments, while ensuring historical configurations remain accessible. Octopus encourages feedback on this feature to understand its impact on user processes and to inform future improvements.
