Job submitted but not started

Navanees · Post by **Navanees** » 14 Mar 2013 12:50

I found a peculiar behaviour for one job which submitted but it did not turn to 'STARTED' status.

I noticed the job got submitted at 3:13:05 but it did not start executing.

I simply then held the job at 3:33:58 and released it, it immediately started executing.

Has anyone noticed these types of behaviour. Can someone tell me the reason why job did not start?

Here is the log

its seems that SL process or TR process hung for sometime or the status directory was not updated for job id, thats the reason job hung .
as soon as you held the job it initiated the CS process again and which result in status directory to change the status of job and it refreshed the SL and TR process for job and it started executing

You might see the log in proclog directory in server for more detail on TR.* and SL* log file

Thanks for your reply.
I checked in control m server for TR.* and SL.* logs in the proclog directory but no such log generated for that particular day.
