Rescheduling high performance computing jobs based on personalized sanity checks and job problem resolution classification

An apparatus, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the memory, the processor being operative:
• to schedule a job submitted by a user to be executed on at least a portion of a computing infrastructure;
• to determine a level of sanity check to be performed on the job;
• to perform the sanity check on the job while waiting for the job to be executed;
• when the sanity check shows that the job will not successfully execute, estimating at least one time required to repair the job such that the job will successfully execute;
• and
• to find whether the estimated time to repair the job exceeds an estimated time remaining before the job is scheduled to be executed;
• and
• when the estimated time to repair the job is found to exceed the estimated time remaining before the job is scheduled to be executed, to reschedule the job such that the estimated time remaining before the job is scheduled to be executed exceeds the estimated time to repair the job.

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium having machine-readable program code embodied therewith, said machine-readable program code comprising machine-readable program code configured:

• to schedule a job submitted by a user to be executed on at least a portion of a computing infrastructure;
• to determine a level of sanity check to be performed on the job;
• to perform the sanity check on the job while waiting for the job to be executed;
• when the sanity check shows that the job will not successfully execute, to estimate at least one time required to repair the job such that the job will successfully execute;
• and
• to find whether the estimated time to repair the job exceeds an estimated time remaining before the job is scheduled to be executed;
• and
• when the estimated time to repair the job is found to exceed the estimated time remaining before the job is scheduled to be executed, to reschedule the job such that the estimated time remaining before the job is scheduled to be executed exceeds the estimated time to repair the job.
