Jobs not showing up

[LaszloSebo]

Hi there,

We have a weird issue, where submitting multiple jobs quickly (via script) one after another makes some of those jobs not show up in the deadline monitor. They do submit correctly though (at least we think so), we even got a failed job email notification! But the job is nowhere to be seen…

Error email:

[TBOA] Animation Publish: FB_084_0820_maya_animation_animBillCharacters.ma version: v0030 job has failed.

This job has incomplete tasks which have reported more errors than the maximum limit of 100.

I think i found the jobs, we have about 10 corrupt jobs, and based on their logs, they seem to be the missing ones.

Any idea what makes a job corrupted? And how can a job thats rendered 80% of its frames get corrupted all of a sudden?

So we’ve figured out what’s causing these corrupted jobs; it’s happening when multiple slaves detect a Job has failed at pretty much the same time. This should be fixed in the next beta.

Cheers,
