reset_workers - biologyguy/RD-MCL GitHub Wiki

When running many workers and/or many RD-MCL jobs, an occasional race condition will develop and cause a job to become stuck. Hopefully this issue will be fixed in a future release, but as a stopgap measure you can run this program to unstick the problem. It's a bit of a sledge hammer though, so use with caution and monitor the worker database closely for a few minutes after using it to make sure all of the various players sort themselves out okay.

$: reset_workers <args>

If no arguments are passed in, the program will look for the worker databases in the current working directory.

args: All flagged arguments are explained in detail below.

Specify the directory where worker databases are located

$: reset_workers -wdb "/home/worker_dir/
