Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  WebSphere Compute Grid version 8.0          *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When subjobs have completed             *
    *                      normally, there is a 5 minutes delay    *
    *                      before top level job goes into final    *
    *                      state                                   *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    There is a race condition created when subjobs are submitted
    that causes the top level job to bypass the registration for
    subjob status. Because subjob status registration was skipped,
    the top level job is not able to monitor its subjobs
    status. However, the top level job is able to transition to a
    final state because there is a recovery mechanism that allows
    the top level job to check with the job scheduler for subjob
    status.  The default wait interval for the recovery is 5
    minutes.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Subjob registration path has been updated to ensure all subjob
    status registration is done.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fixpack 8.0.0.4 Please refer to the Recommended Updates page
