Initialization & Lockdown

This document describes the various constants and flags used in the initialize.php of the Hive system. These settings control initialization behaviors, maintenance modes, error handling, and lockdown states.

Initialization Flags

These flags are used to control how Hive initializes and responds to different conditions:

  • _HIVE_OVR_PRE_SETTING_MODE_
    Pre-determine Hive mode to load specific Hive mode information.

  • _HIVE_PREVENT_INIT_
    Prevents the initialization of Hive Mode. Useful for external site module scripts.

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_MT_LOCK_OVR_
    Overrides and prevents the display of the maintenance lock page.

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_BACKUP_LOCK_OVR_
    Overrides and prevents the display of the backup lock page.

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_UPDATE_LOCK_OVR_
    Overrides and prevents the display of the update lock page.

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_INIT_ERROR_OVR_
    Overrides and prevents the display of the error page for _HIVE_INTERNAL_INIT_ERROR_.

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_RNAME_ERROR_OVR_
    Overrides and prevents the display of the error page for _HIVE_INTERNAL_RNAME_ERROR_.

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_DOWNGRADE_ERROR_OVR_
    Overrides and prevents the display of the error page for _HIVE_INTERNAL_DOWNGRADE_ERROR_.

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_UPDATE_REQ_OVR_
    Overrides and prevents the display of the error page for _HIVE_INTERNAL_UPDATE_REQ_.

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_VERSION_ERROR_OVR_
    Overrides and prevents the display of the error page for _HIVE_INTERNAL_VERSION_ERROR_.

Lockdown States

These constants indicate various lockdown or maintenance states:

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_MT_LOCK_
    Maintenance Mode Lock is active. Also sets _HIVE_INTERNAL_LOCK_.

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_BACKUP_LOCK_
    Backup Lock File is in place. Also sets _HIVE_INTERNAL_LOCK_.

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_UPDATE_LOCK_
    Update Lockfile is active. Also sets _HIVE_INTERNAL_LOCK_.

Error States for Site Modules

These flags indicate errors or required actions in site modules:

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_INIT_ERROR_
    No valid site module found. Replacement for "check hive mode is array".

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_RNAME_ERROR_
    A different module RNAME is suddenly active. _HIVE_INTERNAL_VERSION_ERROR_ will also be true.

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_DOWNGRADE_ERROR_
    Current module has been downgraded. _HIVE_INTERNAL_VERSION_ERROR_ will also be true.

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_UPDATE_REQ_
    Database changes are pending. _HIVE_INTERNAL_VERSION_ERROR_ will also be true.

  • _HIVE_INTERNAL_VERSION_ERROR_
    Error with version numbers or consistency. Replacement for _HIVE_CRIT_ER_.

Usage

Set or override these constants in your configuration or scripts as needed to control Hive's initialization, maintenance, and error handling behavior.

Note:
These flags are primarily intended for internal use or advanced customization. Use with caution, as overriding certain errors or locks may expose your system to inconsistencies or maintenance issues.
