The following ATLAS job was affected by a 1 h DSL outage caused by my ISP and finished later without manual intervention. You (mainly the project team) may examine the logs to see if the VM behaves as expected. https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=150145411 |

From the output: Input/output error: '/cvmfs/atlas.cern.ch/repo/sw/software/21.0/AtlasOffline/21.0.15/InstallArea/x86_64-slc6-gcc49-opt/jobOptions/SimuJobTransforms/skeleton.HITSMerge.py' Data in /cvmfs is read over the network so your outage caused the task to fail. You still got the credits because you used significant CPU but our systems down the chain will see the error and retry the task automatically. |

Thank you David. It may at least help to harden the WUs against outages or - if this situations are rare - simply reschedule the job as you stated. |
