Hi folks,

it is not clear how this outage affected running jobs. From what I see jobs which tried to open new files for writing or removing files/directories failed. But writing to already opened files could have been affected as well.

To be on the safe side - I restarted the running taxi jobs as well as the ongoing centrally run jobs (that's a lot easier than going through their output to see if it is okay). For your own jobs - please be aware that you might have corrupt files from those jobs

Chris
