Hi,

I have converted a suite to run nudged using era5 data on ARCHER2 (u-cy789). I begin running the suite 19870101 and all works for 2 calendar years, but I get a submit-failed on postproc in 19890101T0000Z with the following error in job.err:

[FAIL] cannot rollback - no transaction is active.

I have tried rerunning the postproc stage, but I continue to get this error and I wondered if this issue had been stumbled upon before. Maybe it is an issue with calendars since I have converted to nudged, but I’m not too sure.

Any help would be appreciated.

All the best,  
Liam

Hi Liam,

Please change the permssions on your /home and /work directories on ARCHER2 so we can see into them.

```auto
chmod -R g+rX /home/n02/n02/<your-username>
chmod -R g+rX /work/n02/n02/<your-username>

```

Cheers,  
Ros

Hi Liam,

The error in the first try reveals the issue (`u-cy789/log/job/19890101T0000Z/postproc/01/job.err`). You have run out of disk on /work. Your quota is 11Tb - please clear out some files.

Regards,  
Ros
