About paused BIG-IP VE auto-scaling

There are certain circumstances under which a service scaling group will pause auto-scaling in your AWS environment, while still passing traffic to your applications. For example, you might have met your AWS cloud resource limit or there’s some sort of network issue. Pausing auto-scaling ensures that you won’t be charged for resources unnecessarily.
