Error description

  • A filecheck dependency on a file located on a dynamic agent in
    some cases remains in "asked" state even if the file is present
    on the agent, that is a question mark ("?") appears near the
    file name in the "conman sf @#@" output.
    The problem occurs after an agent-master communication problem.
    
    The dependency remains in "asked" state until JnextPlan or until
    a job/jobstream having an OPENS dependency on the same file is
    submitted.

    The problem occurs after an agent-master communication problem.
    The code has been modified to manage the exception received
    reporting to batchman a "file not present" state. In this way
    batchman will retry the check.
