# Killing Processes where Parent pipeline triggered a large/infinite loop via webhook, keeps triggerin

### Issue <a href="#issue" id="issue"></a>

Administrators may encounter a scenario where a parent pipeline was triggered via Webhook, and as a result, multiple/many/infinite child pipelines are triggered, overloading the Spinnaker instance. In this scenario, Orca has SQL as a data store.

### Cause <a href="#cause" id="cause"></a>

Triggering the webhook can happen accidentally and can possibly occur multiple times. As a result, administrators may need a way to programmatically stop hundreds of stuck child pipelines.
