1053.0. "Same job running at same time on different node in a cluster" by ROM01::CALDONI () Tue Apr 02 1996 05:41

    DECscheduler was installed on a OpenVMS AXP Cluster.
    
    Some job starts at boot time (called from SYSTARTUP_VMS) on both node.
    
    If a job is activated on a node, when it is started and not finished on
    the other, then it can't start and I receive the message "Run failed".
    
    I try to delay the jobs on a node, but if this node unfortunately boot
    an amount of time equals to the delay before the other node the problem
    arise again.
    
    Is there any configuration problem ? Is possible to run the same job at
    the same time on two machine ? Any qualifier ?
    
    Thanks a lot.

	There is no way to run the same job at the same time on a single standalone system or in a cluster. The alternatives are: (1) create a copy of this job (different name, can differ by one character) and run the copy (2) create a copy of this job and set it to belong to another user.
