Macro 'Analysis disk space (summary)' never ends - background processing

[rona]

Hello,

I launched the macro  'Analysis disk space (summary)'  and it ran during a long time. Finally I choose the option to execute in background.

Please, could you confirm if it's normal that it takes more than 15 minutes ? How can I see the output of the run when it's executed in background ?

Thanks

Annie

Hi,

It is possible for the macro to take time to compute results, especially if you are on a shared Dataiku DSS Design Node with a large data directory (a likely consequence of dozens or hundreds of users training Machine Learning models) or a disk with low IO performance. However, if that is not the case, then 15 minutes could indicate a problem.

To clarify my understanding of your situation, does the macro ever complete?

If not, could you please attach a diagnostic of the DSS instance (Administration > Maintenance > Diagnostic tool) and send us the resulting file? Note that you need to be an administrator of the DSS instance - else you'll need to ask your admin.
​
If the resulting file is too large for this community discussion (> 19 MB), you can use https://dl.dataiku.com to send it to us. Please don't forget to send the link that is generated when you upload the file.

Cheers,

Alex

Hello,

Thanks for your quick reply.

It seems that the first execution takes time, to collect all the project information. Now when I ran it I get the project information very quickly.

The first run should be done in background.
