APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

    pending state on the Job Management Console and do not
    transition to restartable state as appropriate. Jobs cannot be
    managed while in canceled pending state.

    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: After an endpoint server recycles while *
    *                      jobs are in flight, inflight jobs are   *
    *                      listed as 'Cancel Pending' in the Job   *
    *                      Scheduler and cannot be re-submitted.   *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    Due to the incorrect processing of job state when an endpoint
    server restarts, some jobs may be listed as 'cancel pending'
    when they should be correctly listed as 'Restartable'. When a
    job is stuck in 'Cancel Pending' state they cannot be
    restarted and become unusable.
    

Problem conclusion

  • With this fix, the Compute Grid runtime correctly establishes a
    job as 'Restartable' when an endpoint server recycles while
    jobs are in flight. Once the endpoint server is re-initialized,
    those jobs can be re-submitted .
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 8.5.5.4.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
