2024.1.0-p1 Release Notes

Resolved Issues

Internal Number Products Case Number Description
VOV-16250 Accelerator, Monitor CS0452383, CD0555579 Fixed a per job memory leak in vovtasker/vovtaskerroot. In Accelerator, RSS growth of 1.2 - 4 KB per job was measured. In Monitor, RSS growth of 43-150 MB per day had been observed.
VOV-16448 Accelerator None The robustness of complex Distributed Parallel jobs with many components was improved.

The nc rerun command now supports the "-after <time>" option.

Jobs that exit with the special exit status values between 201-215 to be automatically rescheduled now have their logs appended to rather than overwritten.

Added vtk_prop_decr_and_get to provide symmetry with vtk_prop_incr_and_get.
VOV-16563 Accelerator Plus CS0507416 Fixed rare race condition that could result in a tasker crash when using autokill. Taskers from version 2024.1.1 and later that are connected to pre-2024.1.1 servers will use the default autokill signals and timing instead of job specific ones.
VOV-16632 Accelerator, Accelerator Plus None Fixed errors associated with Tcl packages when using the linux64p portable architecture.
VOV-16663 Accelerator, Accelerator Plus CS0517250 Fixed the following bug: when the VOV_DISABLE_SHARED_MEMORY_LOOKUP environment variable was set to 1 in vovtaskerroot, the use of /proc/PID/smaps files to calculate CURRAM usage for jobs should have been disabled, but was not properly disabled.
VOV-16768 All None Fixed server crash resulting from invalid data packets being sent to the event port.
VOV-16855 All None Fixed a memory leak issue in the WX server related to the tasker reservation pack, specifically in the case of vovwxd.
VOV-16901 Accelerator, Accelerator Plus CS0537642 Fixed an issue that caused vovserver to crash when the recently added listening Event Port was scanned by the Linux sslscan command. The change incompatibly changes the protocol used on the communication channel between the Accelerator RDS thread and Monitor when Resource Data Service (RDS) is active. If RDS is in use, then Accelerator and Monitor must both be upgraded to a fixed software version at the same time.
VOV-17030 Accelerator, Hero None Run tasker support scripts under the default user login.
