Auto Suspend

Determines whether the Snowflake warehouse is suspended at the end of each batch.

When enabled, the generated batch package ends with an ALTER WAREHOUSE ... SUSPEND statement for the configured warehouse, after any scale-down statement, preventing credit consumption while the warehouse idles between batch runs.

When to Change This Setting

Keep the default Y when the warehouse is dedicated to BimlFlex loads. Disable it when the warehouse serves concurrent workloads outside the batches and should remain running after a batch completes.
