SGE 6.1 (6.1u3) sends double email notifications

[adary]

To clarify this,

Job is sent with -m a and -M ***@email parameters

When a job is killed with qdel, two emails are sent to the user instead of one.

First email is the regular emai:


Job 1016932 (vim) Aborted

Exit Status = 137

Signal = KILL

User = adary

Queue = ***@lnx4073.il.marvell.com

Host = lnx4073.il.marvell.com

Start Time = 12/01/2010 16:04:53

End Time = 12/01/2010 16:05:20

CPU = 00:00:00

Max vmem = 408.438M

failed assumedly after job because:

job 1016932.1 died through signal KILL (9)



Second mail looks like this:



Job 1079336 (sleep) was killed by ***@adary-lnx.il.marvell.com<mailto:***@adary-lnx.il.marvell.com>





I cant find a reason for this behavior, and users clain that they started getting the second mail only in the last few weeks (this grid is in production for the last three years)



Anyone got an idea how can something like this happen and how to suppress the extra second mail?



Another related question: Is there a way to get only one email when a job array is killed? Right now in ideal situation I would get a mail for every running task in the job array (and we have arrays of 500+ running tasks)



Looking forward to any answers :)



Y.

Hi,

yes, AFAIK this is the default behavior.

This is a long standing demand but nothing is implemented to cover this right now.

You can use a mail wrapper and supress mails which are filtering the mails:

http://gridengine.sunsource.net/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=38&dsMessageId=254376

This will check only if the index of the array is "1" and send emails for only this one (originally it was designed to send "Set job to Error" only for task 1 of each array job). Maybe the script can be adjusted for your needs: in your case you don't have to look for "Set" but "Failed" and/or "Aborted" in the subject line and simply ignore it.
