Abstract

A technology is described for debugging in a cluster processing network. A scheduler can dispatch a process that is part of the cluster job for execution. Further, a compute node can be used to execute the process dispatched by the scheduler to the compute node. A debugger can be activated in response to an unhandled suspension event in the process on the compute node. In addition, the debugger can send notification messages regarding the unhandled suspension event. A job monitor can receive a notification from the debugger that an unhandled suspension event has occurred. The notification can be displayed to a user via the job monitor.
