Cluster statuses

For each cluster that you view on the

Advanced Clusters

page, you can view the status of the cluster.

The following table describes cluster statuses:

Status	Description
Starting	The cluster is starting. A cluster starts as soon as you run a job.
Running	The cluster is running and processing jobs.
Stopping	The cluster is stopping. The jobs that were running on the cluster have completed and the cluster has reached the idle timeout in the advanced configuration , or you recently stopped the cluster in Monitor. The time that it takes to stop a cluster depends on the cloud platform. If you run a job while the cluster is stopping, the cluster does not start and the job fails.
Stopped	The cluster has stopped.
Error	The cluster has an error. During an error, the Secure Agent attempts to recover the cluster. User action might be necessary, such as when you receive a fail-to-start or fail-to-stop exception.
Unknown	The status of the cluster is unknown. If the status is unknown, verify that the Secure Agent is running. If the agent is not running, enable the agent and check whether the cluster starts running. If the cluster does not start running, an administrator can run the command to list clusters. If the command output returns the cluster state as partial or in-use, the administrator can run the command to delete the cluster. For more information about the commands, see the Administrator help.

Monitor might not reflect the current cluster status if the following conditions are true:

The Secure Agent machine is shut down.

You update the

advanced configuration

, choosing to disable the

advanced cluster

when you save the configuration.

There is also a delay between the time that the cluster status changes and the time that the agent receives information about the cluster status. So the agent might submit a job to the cluster while the cluster is stopping or stopped. The job fails, and you must run the job again to restart the cluster.

For example, if the agent is notified that the cluster is running and the cluster reaches its idle timeout immediately afterwards, the agent submits the job to the cluster and the job fails.
