Hi there.
Strange issue with Pdg and Deadline workers on different machines seemingly randomly choosing to not start all the concurrent tasks, but just one.
I am using a deadline scheduler in a houdini topnet with concurrent tasks parameter set to 4, 8 or 12, but i get random effects:
a) It works fine, each worker starts the amount of tasks assigned.
b) One worker starts multiple tasks, the other starts only 1 task (there seems to be no rule for which worker starts multiple tasks or just one)
c) SOMETIMES it seems to work like a) after restarting Houdini.
I’ve had this problem intermittently throughout the years so I’d love to find out what it is that I’m doing wrong.
