RepositoryUtils.RequeueTasks broken

Deprecated Deadline 7 Bug Reports
#1

I have a script that was working fine on Deadline 6.2, but some of the API commands didn’t transfer over to DL7. I looked at the most recent API reference and found that the naming of the command doesn’t appear to have changed. The console isn’t showing me an error when I try to run it, but the tasks don’t get requeued.

selectedJobs = MonitorUtils.GetSelectedJobs()
jobTasks = RepositoryUtils.GetJobTasks( job, True )

for task in jobTasks:
tasksToRequeue.append(task)

RepositoryUtils.RequeueTasks( job, tasksToRequeue ) # This doesn’t do anything now

#2

I just tested with Deadline 7.0.2.3 (the latest public release), and it worked fine for me. Here’s the code for the job right-click script I was testing with:

from Deadline.Scripting import *

def __main__():
    jobs = MonitorUtils.GetSelectedJobs()
    for job in jobs:
        jobTasks = RepositoryUtils.GetJobTasks( job, True )
        
        tasksToRequeue = []
        for task in jobTasks:
            tasksToRequeue.append(task)
        RepositoryUtils.RequeueTasks( job, tasksToRequeue )

Can you upload your script? Also, can you check the version of your Monitor that you’re running the script from?

Thanks!

Using Deadline Monitor 7.0.2.2 R (c92848960)

[code]import os, sys

from Deadline.Scripting import *
from Deadline.Jobs import *

def main( *args ):

selectedJobs = MonitorUtils.GetSelectedJobs()

for job in selectedJobs:
    
    tasksToRequeue = [] # List of all failed tasks for current job
    reportsToDelete = [] # List of all the error reports for the failed tasks on the current job
    
    jobID = job.ID
    reportCollection = RepositoryUtils.GetJobReports( jobID ) # All reports, including requeues and completed tasks
    errorReports = reportCollection.GetErrorReports() # Filters out the reports that aren't full blown errors
    jobTasks = RepositoryUtils.GetJobTasks( job, True ) # List of tasks for the current job
    
    for task in jobTasks:
        if task.TaskStatus == 'Failed': # Only pay attention to failed tasks
            tasksToRequeue.append(task) # Adds the current task to the list of failed tasks to requeue
            
            for report in errorReports:
                if int(report.ReportTaskID) == int(task.TaskId): # Check to see if the current error report came from one of the failed tasks
                    reportsToDelete.append(report) # Add the error report to list of reports that will be deleted

    RepositoryUtils.DeleteJobReports( jobID, reportsToDelete ) # Deletes all of the error reports for the failed tasks
    RepositoryUtils.RequeueTasks( job, tasksToRequeue ) # Requeues all of the failed tasks[/code]

Ryan, we haven’t rolled out 2.3 yet. Mostly because of the effort a full rollout takes, but also because the only change seems to have been something that’s not yet important to us (according to the change logs):

"3ds Max Improvements

  • Fixed a bug for 3ds Max 2015 when checking the visibility of the SceneExplorer prior to rendering."
#5

Since you are working with failed tasks, try using RepositoryUtils.ResumeFailedTasks() instead of RepositoryUtils.RequeueTasks(). That should do the trick.

If RequeueTasks() worked with Deadline 6.x, I’m guessing a “fix” is the reason why it doesn’t work in v7, since RequeueTasks() was only meant to requeue completed tasks.

Cheers,
Ryan

Worked like a charm! Thanks Ryan.
