[HTCondor-users] Unintended weirdness of -completedsince?

[KÃhn, Max (SCC) <max.fischer@xxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

Weâve just stumbled over a âbugâ in our tooling when using `condor_history` with `-since`/`-completedsince`.

It looks like all cancelled jobs have a CompletionDate of 0. This means that using `-since 'CompletionDate<=timestampâ` or `-completedsince timestamp` often stops very early. We noticed this during a lucky sanity check when a query returned 20 instead of about 2000 results. Is this intentional?
Itâs straightforward to workaround for `-since` if one is aware, but it makes `-completedsince` completely (and silently) useless.

Weâre running 23.X (schedd) and 24.0 (startd) in case this matters.

Cheers,
Max
