Issues with Ember Batch Queue

Posted: July 20, 2012

Duration: Today - July 20, starting at approximately 2:30pm

At about 2:30pm today there was a problem with the batch queue on ember that resulted in users not being able to submit jobs. The problem was traced to corruption in the batch database. The recovery of the batch system required that the queue be flushed, therefore at about 4pm ALL jobs, both running and idle, in the queue on ember were lost. Users will need to resubmit all jobs. Reservations were NOT lost. The scheduling of jobs was restored at approximately 5:15pm.

CHPC apologizes to all of the users that were impacted by this problem.
