PublicPairedSingleSampleWf_160927.options.json only includes 2 of the 4 us-central1 zones:

    "zones": "us-central1-b us-central1-c"

I'm not sure if there is a rational for limiting the zones that Cromwell can use to run tasks. The 4 Compute Engine zones in us-central1 are:

  • us-central1-a
  • us-central1-c
  • us-central1-b
  • us-central1-f

I'm not aware of any rationale, but we should check with the Cromwell team just in case. @knoblett, could you please ask red team?

Hey all, Cromwell doesn't restrict the usage of any particular zones.

When you specify multiple zones, then how is a zone picked for running processes?

mbookman commented Nov 29, 2016

The zone is selected by the Pipelines API at random from the list.

Does this reduce the probability of preemption if using preemptible instances? I recall hearing that we pick our central zone to reduce the possibility of preemption.

That is the expectation.

Great. Thanks for clarifying.
