I had a resource that kept triggering every few minutes and it created a queue of hundreds of pending jobs. I want to clear off all the old resource versions so that it stops trying to start new jobs. How can I do that without deleting and recreating the pipeline or impacting any other active pipelines?

If I understand correctly you have something like:

> fly -t vm builds

id  pipeline/job       build  status    

25  queue-up/queue-up  25     started   

24  queue-up/queue-up  24     started   

23  queue-up/queue-up  23     started   

22  queue-up/queue-up  22     started   

21  queue-up/queue-up  21     started   

20  queue-up/queue-up  20     started   

19  queue-up/queue-up  19     started   

18  queue-up/queue-up  18     started   

17  queue-up/queue-up  17     succeeded 

where maybe some of the builds are pending instead than started.

There is no way to clear off the old resource versions without deleting the pipeline. On the other hand, you can always abort all or some of the builds:

> for i in (seq 24 18); fly -t vm abort-build --build $i; end

build successfully aborted

build successfully aborted

build successfully aborted

build successfully aborted

build successfully aborted

build successfully aborted

build successfully aborted



> fly -t vm builds

id  pipeline/job       build  status   

25  queue-up/queue-up  25     started  

24  queue-up/queue-up  24     aborted  

23  queue-up/queue-up  23     aborted  

22  queue-up/queue-up  22     aborted  

21  queue-up/queue-up  21     aborted  

20  queue-up/queue-up  20     aborted  

19  queue-up/queue-up  19     aborted  

18  queue-up/queue-up  18     aborted  

17  queue-up/queue-up  17     succeeded
