dsjob restart: "Unable to load value file"
Posted: Mon Dec 12, 2016 4:39 pm
Using v11.3, I've got a small test Job Sequencer with checkpointing enabled that also contains one parameter set and one parameter. The parameter set contains several environment variables all set to $PROJDEF.
I start the job from the command line with these options:
dsjob -authfile /home/dsadm/.authfile -run -mode NORMAL -wait -param JOB_RUN_ID=6660225 dstage1 Test_Seq
When the job aborts and is restarted with the Director (run, no reset), the checkpointing works fine.
However, if I restart the aborted job from the command line:
dsjob -authfile /home/dsadm/.authfile -run -mode RESTART -wait -param JOB_RUN_ID=6660225 dstage1 Test_Seq
It aborts again, placing this error in the director log:
Unable to load value file (As pre-defined)
I think it wants me to set the parameter set values on the command line to (As Defined). I find this puzzling since I didn't do that on the "start". This is also problematic since this script is supposed to be generic enough that we can use it to restart all check-pointed jobs.
Any suggestions as to how to resolve?
