All systems are operational.

Batch service is back. Unfortunately all jobs were purged during the investigation, so you will have to resubmit your jobs.

The issue was due to a remnant job file defined as array that created a segmentation fault, probably because the batch software could not handle the number of created jobs by the array. Once the file was removed, the batch system did not crash during start anymore.

The batch system software is currently failing to restart. We are investigating. No local submissions are possible. Grid jobs will continue running.
