    I made up a little workflow to clear 3 fields on the account record.  A guy ran it over say 50 accounts.  I went to the systems jobs log most of them had fallen into a waiting/error state.  When I tried to resume them only one at a time would succeed.  Even doing two at a time, the second one would never get in progress.  Is there anything one can do about that?

    Sometimes the ASYNC service can get blocked up.

    If there are some jobs which are not progressing then after a while the other jobs will go into a waiting state.

    My advice would be to restart the ASYNC service on the CRM server.

    Try to manually restart some of the jobs, if that isn't really doing any good then select all the ones you have created and cancel them.  Also look for any which are not completing or are stuck in waiting and try and restart them.

    hopefully the above will get the ASYNC service straight.

    I have also seen the ASYNC service sort itself out overnight once it has processed the backlog of jobs.

    Hi Markdukes,

    There are two reasons for bottleneck:

    1. Size of the asyncoperation table (there is a script available that cleans the table)
    2. SQL Deadlocks

    Keeping the above items to a minimum, can improve async performance without the need for tweaking.

    Hope this helps
