[Pulp-list] Stuck repo sync job

[Miller, Jeffrey L]

I cancel the tasks as well... except it seems more common for me so I have a cron job running a script every 30 minutes to check for pending sync jobs and resubmit the sync job for the repo.

When Pulp (very occasionally) gets itself in a bit of a mess, I find this one-liner useful:

  for ID in `pulp-admin tasks list | grep 'Task Id' | sed 's/Task Id:\s*//g'`; do pulp-admin tasks cancel --task-id=$ID; done;

It cancels all current/pending tasks.
