[NLPL Task Force (A)] trickle problem

[Asad Basheer Sayeed]

Hi,

I'm getting sbatch failures from a running trickle (which Stephan showed 
me to use), what might the problem be?

[19-08-27 11:27:12] trickle[431]: 312 jobs; 240 running;trickle: 
sbatch(1) failure; exit.

  0 new.
[19-08-27 11:27:42] trickle[431]: 312 jobs; 240 running;trickle: 
sbatch(1) failure; exit.
  0 new.
[19-08-27 11:28:13] trickle[431]: 312 jobs; 240 running;trickle: 
sbatch(1) failure; exit.
  0 new.

The command was:

while true; do /projects/nlpl/operation/tools/trickle --limit 370 
joblist6.txt ; sleep 30; done

What's wrong with it? I pushed 2500 jobs earlier through it mostly 
successfully.  I did increase the clock time to 25h because a handful of 
my jobs were timing out.

Yours,
--Asad.
