Sorry, I probably should have cut and pasted that information. All the jobs have finished, but I believe they all said something like "waiting on storage device", if it happens again, I will make sure to save the scheduler output and send it. I don't believe any of the jobs wrote to the same volume. > My understanding is that if AllowMixedPriority=yes, then the higher > priority job should run before any other queued lower priority jobs. > Although it will not preempt already running jobs, it should start as > soon as one of the already running jobs finishes.

Hmm, You say "AllowMixedPriority=yes", the docs and my conf files say "Allow Mixed Priority = yes". Do the white spaces matter? Maybe I should try it the way you have it here. I also have this specified for every job I have, I wasn't sure if I could put it in the JobsDef or not. If the way I have it spelled in my conf files is fine, then it sounds like it could be a bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable. Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes sense of it. IT sense.
