New Issues

Added to sprint

Not added to sprint

Other

  • Snapshot issue:
    • GOKb harvest is causing an OOM error which stops agreements from working, resulting in stalling and then a 500 error.
    • follows implementation of ERM-3018 (title matching)
    • PR to change memory settings for agreements on snapshot
      • not guaranteed
      • pending acceptance and merge
    • alternatively, we revert to previous title ingest process
    • on snapshot-2 over the weekend, harvest was interrupted by a 504 response at GOKb, and successfully recovered and completed. 
      • suggests that memory use is building over the course of a job or new resources are being cached
      • could we exploit this to force a restart after a period on long-running processes?  NOT A LONG-TERM FIX
    • Options
      • TODO: Increase memory (as per PR)
      • TODO: limit harvest job batch to (1hr) chunks, determined end of each package
      • update library to get responses
      • update library to parse responses
      • better garbage collection to release memory during job
