+In some circumstances, like during [upgrades](updating_the_geo_nodes.md) or a [planned failover](../disaster_recovery/planned_failover.md), it is desirable to pause replication between the primary and secondary.
+
+Pausing and resuming replication is done via a command line tool from the secondary node.
+
+**To Pause: (from secondary)**
+
+```shell
+gitlab-ctl geo-replication-pause
+```
+
+**To Resume: (from secondary)**
+
+```shell
+gitlab-ctl geo-replication-resume
