Abstract
Aspects include monitoring, by a controller, an operational status of a tracker system that is configured to track and record a current status of a job being executed and to report completion of the job to the controller. The recording includes storing two copies of the current status, where a first copy is stored in a shared memory location accessible by the controller. In response to determining, based on the monitoring, that the tracker system is operational, waiting to receive a job completion message for the job from the tracker system and performing a job completion action based on receiving the job completion message. In response to determining that the tracker system is not operational, obtaining the current status of the job from the shared memory location and performing the job completion action based on the current status indicating that the job has completed.
