Below are some of the top issues that can affect Job System performance:

• Agent is Down, Unknown, or Suspended in Blackout
• Agent is overloaded resulting in excessive job retries (Metric Extensions can often cause this)
• Priority jobs are getting starved due to failing System Retry Jobs
• DB session hang due to repository background process deadlocks
• OMS UI console to PBS communication failure
• Corrective Actions trigger too frequently due to incorrect metric threshold settings
• User-suspended jobs are locking resources
• Long running jobs are blocking common Job System resources, thus preventing new jobs from running
• Jobs backlog due to stuck head of the queue

The job diagnostics dashboard allows administrators to easily identify the above issues, diagnose the root cause and take appropriate action.
