Improvement Suggestion

In some reason, i got overload jobs assigned for workers, i.e. got 9k jobs while workers can only run 51 jobs. I tried to auto remove the jobs and sectors by simple scripts, but it's such a pain cause i remove 2k jobs using 10 hours. So here i am asking team could tell me how to remove the assigned jobs, cause it can speed up my progress to removing the useless sealing jobs. Or is there any solutions for my problem, all i need is to removing all the old overload sealing jobs. Please help!!!

Hi @oneforalone

First - I think you need to write a better pledge script or slow down the deals - because 9k jobs is way too much, for a data cluster of machine that can only handle 51 jobs !

Second, this is isn't a lotus issue - the issue is created by the user so I will transfer the ticket over to discussions for help and troubleshooting.

I do have environment if all things fail, shut down miner:
export LOTUS_MINER_ABORT_UNFINISHED_WORK=1
and lotus-miner run.

Only use as last resort! - and keep in mind that this will most likely break other sectors if the workers is still working on other sectors.

Thanks for your advices, i'll try a better pledge way.

However, I tried another way to clean it up before your reply. Here is my trick:
First, I create the empty sector files in worker's sealed directory. Then restart the worker, this will make the PC1 jobs failed.
And then I just remove the failed sectors.

But i'm sure the last resort is what i want, really appreciate your reply.
