Can I temporarily disable the scaled object from scaling?

[bkruger99]

Hi,

I am curious if I can disable/enable a scaled object w/o deleting it? Maybe adding an annotation or something along the lines w/o outright deleting it? Specifically looking for something more CI/CD friendly for deployment, but want to limit exposure on the cluster of what someone needs for privileges, but may need to disable autoscaling temporarily to troubleshoot issues/set a fixed number of replicas/ etc. A deployment scaled to zero for instance will cause the HPA to ignore and do nothing. In the case of keda, if I scale deployment to zero, keda will scale it back up.

Thanks!

It is possible with:

metadata:
  annotations:
    autoscaling.keda.sh/paused: "true"
