I think i reported this before, but can’t find it…
It seems to still be an issue in beta4, that the post job task’s status contributes to the status of the whole job. I have a job for example thats 50% done, 50% pending, with a queued post job task. The job shows up as queued in the job list, instead of pending.
Yup, we had this issue logged already. Because of the way the job’s state is currently calculated, it must take into consideration all tasks (it’s based on many tasks are in each state, not which tasks are in which state). However, I think we can handle this situation better by simply not releasing the post job task for a job with frame dependencies until all other tasks for the job are complete. This way, the job will stay in the pending state in the situation you described.
Cheers,
