Hi! I'm using prefect v1 and I'm trying to activate zombie killer to clean up tasks that are failed but are stuck in forever running state. From what I understood from this link, all I need to do to activate it is to add

env={"PREFECT__CLOUD__HEARTBEAT_MODE": "thread"}

to my run config. I added that but the tasks are still being stuck. Is there anything else I need to configure in order to activate zombie killer?

Where do the tasks run?

As kubernetes jobs

This is a common issue - if a task fails or gets restarted for any reason in kubernetes, Kubernetes natively willr estart the pod, but Prefect is not aware of this restart so it continues to see a task as “running”

I see, thanks!

Hi also having issues with this - using spot IO on top. How can we get this fixed asap. Affects production pipelines that we have. Huge Blocker
