Due to a problem with the WMAgent submission task, a new batch of CMS jobs is not being put in the Condor queue. So, the queue is now draining and there will be no more jobs available in a couple of hours. Best to set your BOINC instance to No New Tasks if you can, to avoid spurious compute error terminations.

Due to a problem with the WMAgent submission task ...The WMAgent seems to continue being a big trouble maker :-( There has been a release change last summer or fall (if I remember correctly), and another major intervention five days ago or so. And again, it took only short time until the WMAgent failed again. As I was saying once before, from what I have been told, special knowledge is needed for putting all the WMAgent settings in a correct manner. Maybe the people working with the WMAgent should be given special training ... ID: 34459 · |

During last night WMAgent worked fine and delivered enough subtasks. Instead the distribution of new WUs hung and still hangs with the message: "No tasks are available for CMS Simulation" <edit> Oops, sorry. There's nothing wrong with CMS at the moment. I looked at another subproject. :-X </edit> ID: 34461 · |

Yes, in fact Alan was still awake and fixed the problem pronto so the queue never actually drained (but I was already in bed as I had to be up early this morning). "Normal" service has been resumed. :-) ID: 34462 · |
