Abstract

Techniques for restarting a task manager without affecting running and scheduled tasks are disclosed. The system includes an operating system which receives a request to restart a task manager with a first worker, wherein the first worker is actively processing a first task. The operating system transmits a signal to the first worker to continue processing the first task and terminate when the first task is complete. The operating system starts a new task manager with a new worker. The operating system updates an availability status of the new task manager to be available and an availability status of the task manager to be unavailable. The operating system assigns a new task to the new task manager based on the availability status associated with the new task manager.
