That seems to hint that the difference between the machines is outside the specific job definition. I'm not sure what hints to offer to seek for other differences between the machines, though you might check for things like: - Are they the same architecture (both x64, both x86, etc.)? - Are they running the same Java virtual machine and the same version of JVM? Sorry I don't have other insights to offer...
