Automation triggered by FME Flow Schedule initiated twice at the same time

We have an automation that is triggered daily with a CRON expression which runs 4 workspaces. The first 3 workspaces are run in parallel and the fourth runs on successful completion of one of the workspaces. Last night, two events appear to have been triggered at the scheduled time and so each workspace was run twice. Has anyone ever come across anything similar? 

I can’t see any obvious errors in the logs

Yes, i have seen this before (with schedules) where for some reason it gets triggered twice. We were never able to replicate it, but might’ve happened at mos once every 2-3 months or so (on a daily schedule)

Yes, this just happened to us on Sunday. This job was only supposed to kick of once an hour but it kicked off a second time, seconds later:

Hello,

Could you please submit a case with the following additional information-

  • The CRON expression used 
  • Is this a setup with a reverse proxy/load balancer or a fault tolerant environment?
  • Is there a use of curly brackets anywhere is the automation or workspace ?
