Then the job lived long enough to finish. Perhaps this will help you, but I'm not sure, since your 4 hour life-to-live is much smaller than the default 21 hours, so maybe it's coming from somewhere else ... YMMV.
Yeah. I saw that. I was kinda thrown by the 78800 vs 14400 issue. Tho, upon further reflection, the following may have something to do with it:
In my goserver logs, I have a whole bunch of "errors on log filter program" messages, and something like
unexpected log filter output:bash: filter~header: command not found
showing up all over the place. In looking at ${BTHOME}/bud/goserver.end.filter I see the line
$1 == "filter~header" {source=$2;linecount=$3;next}
about 15 lines after the param(BT_REQ_CMDTIMEOUT,...) line. Not being an awk guru, I have no idea what this is doing, but I suspect that this error is causing the entire goserver.end.filter to fail, and thus the 21 hour timeout is not being applied.
If I may ask, do you have anything like this in your goserver.end.filter file?
