What it does
The safety check that protects your configuration items (CIs) from being written by two builds at the same time: A CI build was started while another CI build was still running.
When enabled
the check works as described on the Guards page.
When disabled
no event. The second CI build still waits for the first one, because two builds never write the CIs at the same time.
Risk and how to reverse it
Turning this check off removes a protection: when its condition happens, nothing holds or stops the step and no event is raised. Reversible at once: switch it back on; it applies from the next run.
Requires
Works only while "All guards (safety checks)" is on.
Recommended
Keep it on. Change it when: Leave it on: it only reports, and nothing is stopped by it. Turn it off when you do not need to know that a CI build had to wait.
