Symptom
The job data action is in pending state for more than 5 min. Subsequent runs of this same data action have a pending state of around 1 sec.
Environment
SAP Analytics Cloud 1.0
Cause
- If multiple Data Actions are triggered simultaneously, they must wait for execution slots.
- On a public tenant, Data Actions from other customers may also impact queue times, as resources are shared.
- Long-running tasks (e.g., refreshing large reports) can consume system resources, delaying job execution.
- If a job is already running for the same user or version, any new job will remain pending until the previous one completes.
- If CPU, memory, or other required resources are fully utilized, new jobs must wait until resources become available.
- A high volume of jobs running simultaneously can extend pending times until the queue clears.
Resolution
Reviewing the scheduling approach, limiting unnecessary parallel executions, or checking overall tenant resource usage.
