Long running jobs don't restart after Sidekiq reload


I have some data processing which take days running in 10 Sidekiq workers. For some reason (probably short of memory) Sidekiq stops then monit restarts it. The issue I have is that the jobs don't restart. Any idea?


Solution

  • Sidekiq is being shut down incorrectly. If you kill -9 sidekiq, you lose the jobs being processed.
