Apache Geode members does not persist gateway-sender state after it is changed with pause, stop, resume or start gateway-sender command. Currently server will by default try to start gateway-sender automatically at startup, if it is not configured differently with the deprecated parameter manual-start (see create gateway-sender command). For example, due to above limitation, when user issue stop gateway-sender command (and he might want to do that when the queues are growing wildly to protect the server from using all memory) cannot be sure that after a server restart that gateway-sender will be kept down.
