degrade(self) → void

Degrade the component.

While executing on_degrade() any exception will be logged and reraised, then the component will remain in a DEGRADING state.

WARNING

Do not override.

If the component is not in a valid state from which to execute this method, then the component state will not change, and an error will be logged.
