I have a WU that has been running for over 48hrs on my PC. Problem is I'm away, so can't fix the problem.
----------------------------------------Will it automatically timeout, or do I have to wait for either a reboot due to windows update or for the deadline to pass? TIA Patrick  |

How do you know?
----------------------------------------Usually a task times out at rsc_fpops_bound point, which is usually 10x the standard estimated runtime. (the bound multiplier value varies per science... just checked a UGM and that one has a 20x cut-off... a representation of uncertainly where curiously, UGM is the most consistent of all sciences). Edit: hmmm HST1 has 20x too... if a task comes in with 13 hours as they've been doing, it means 260 hours before calling out hallelujah... that's beyond the 10 day deadline, at time of receipt.

Most of my OET WUs take 2 hrs max, not over 48hrs. I can tell when it started by the time other WUs already returned finished.

After PC rebooted, WU returned Valid 1hr later, along with a stuck Zika WU soon after that.
----------------------------------------Hopefully all cores now back up to speed. Patrick [Edit 2 times, last edit by pcwr at Jun 10, 2016 10:40:09 PM] |
