Qlik DataTransfer Scheduled Uploads are Corrupting
I have Qlik DataTransfer installed on a Windows 10 Pro workstation in our environment. This syncs data to our Qlik Analytics Services platform. The Scheduled Uploads are set to upload all of our 11 datasets every 2 hours, on the hour. What we've seen very frequently in the last few weeks are one or more of these datasets failing to upload and the Scheduled Upload job getting stuck. For insance, if it fails at 2 AM and I check it at 2 PM, the job will say it's In Progress and its next scheduled run is 4 AM. To fix this, I have to manually run the failed Uploads and then rebuild the schedule as there's no way for me to stop the In Progress job. I guess I have 2 questions:
1. How do I stop this from occurring so the scheduled jobs don't fail?
2. Can I set up any kind of alerting in Qlik Analytics to advise when a dataset has exceeded its upload schedule?
Checking in this morning, three of the jobs failed on 3/2 around 2 AM and the job never completed, couldn't be reset. A new one had to be created and I'm now awaiting its automatic run for 12 PM to confirm automation is working. If anyone has any input on this, I'd be really happy to hear it!
If anyone finds this thread and finds that it resonates with them, I've been working with Qlik support and below is what we've tried so far and we're in a waiting status.
Added --debounceDelay 5000 to the .conf file in Qlik's Program Files
The logs for the failures also indicated that the reason for failure had to do with the disk being full so I'm looking into that.
Not calling this resolved but this is where we're headed.
