</div></div>So it is true, that the Interupted exceptions (which is when a job is<br>
killed because of a reset) are some times being turned into Fail events<br>
by the system, which is one of the reasons the graphite data for<br>
failures is incorrect, and if you use just the graphite sourcing for<br>
fails, your numbers will be overly pessimistic.<br>
<br>
The following is probably better lists<br>
