<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hi all,<br>
<br>
I multiple people were wondering about the status of the pass2, that was submitted just before Christmas brake.<br>
<br>
During the brake significant amount of jobs are failed.<br>
Main issue is the so called "No space left on disk" exception.<br>
<br>
I did a ccpr I was in contact with computer center before and after the brakes.<br>
<br>
Briefly about what happened:<br>
The response was that auger scheduler is taking more jobs than the local disk of the node can take, and after<br>
about 7-8 hours of running the local disk of the node becomes completely full, and therefore crashing all the jobs on that node.<br>
<br>
Computer center advised that the problem is related to the so called "farm18" nodes, and before the brakes I sent jobs<br>
to "farm16" nodes to avoid jobs to be run by any farm18 node, however during th Christmas brake, we got similar issue<br>
with farm16 nodes too.<br>
In addition to this, number of nodes for some reason went offline (restarted) during the brake again causing a lot of jobs to fail.<br>
Given the high rate of failures, I didn't submit additional jobs during brake time, until we will understand the failure reason.<br>
<br>
After the brake I asked computer center about it, and they suggested instead of auger, to use slurm.
<br>
Now half of nodes are running on slurm, and in a near future all jobs will be submitted through slurm instead of auger.<br>
<br>
Past week I was doing some tests on different nodes to check if the similar problem still exists.<br>
<br>
It happened again in farm18 nodes, but for others it worked well for a single run.<br>
<br>
I promised Maurik to present details about this on the coming Wednesday meeting.<br>
<br>
Details of ccpr ar in the following link<br>
