Why do my jobs stay in a Pending status when I have an environment spread across the world with plenty of capacity still available?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Running several jobs at the same time leads to the occasional job starting, but many jobs stay in "Pending" status for up to 5 minutes. When looking at the execution nodes, they all still have plenty of capacity.

Environment

  • Ansible Automation Controller
  • Automation Control nodes are geographically spread
