Resolution:
The date/time which you see in the $alephe_scratch log for a job is *not* the time that the job started; it is the time that the log was last written to. In this case, the abc01_p_manage_32.11008 *finished* at Mar 8 13:37.
To see when a job began, you need to check the beginning of the job log....
We see that abc01_p_manage_15.11010 finished at Mar 8 07:51. My guess is that it was running at Fr 03/07 23pm when you intended for the p_manage_32 to start and the latter job waited until the former was finished.
If the p_manage_15 log shows a start time after 23:00, then you should check the $alephe_scratch logs for other abc01 jobs running in this timeframe.
In regard to the long run time for p_manage_15:
* p_manage_15 will take at least 8.5 hours at your site when run against all heading types.
* When run against just one particular heading type, it should be shorter, but the job was set-up to run against all headings anyway. As described in KB 16384-1969, v18 rpc-1281 corrects this problem, greatly shortening the run-time when the job is run for one specific Type of Heading Index.
