virtualserver started too many times in a certain time period

This error is there to protect our backend services from getting spammed with frequent server updates.

What causes this error?

The trigger conditions for this error are very specific and are as follows:

• You start a server instance and then this same instance stops within 5 seconds of it being started.
• The above happens more than 3 times in a 41 minute window.

After you triggered this error, you will be prevented from starting any server instance using the affected license for a period of 12 minutes.

How do I fix this?

You should first investigate how you managed to trigger this error and change your scripts to avoid triggering the conditions above.

Then you must not start any server instance for the 12 minute grace period mentioned above. After this you should be able to start your instance normally.
