Issue/Introduction

In the Idash error logs we see the following errors:
Time: error parsing run window:SOMEJOB_NAME :"04:00-22:30". Expected run window syntax:HH:mm-HH:mm

What is this?

On our primary iDash server, we are getting similar errors below on time parsing: 18-02-28 09.49.58 [ERROR] XXX:com.ca.idash.core.util.Time: error parsing run window:SOMEJOB_NAME :"04:00-22:30".

Resolution

The run window attribute in the job was not setup correctly so it created the iDash error. Please check your job definition.
