Hi,

I have a project with nightly tests across multiple subprojects, all uploading results to a CDash dashboard. Occasionally, one or two subprojects are missing from the dashboard after a nightly run.

The issue seems non-deterministic — there’s no consistent pattern as to which subproject is missing. I’ve also checked the local logs and found no errors or warnings related to the upload.

My question is: is there a known limitation on CDash regarding how many builds can be submitted at once, or within a given time window? Is there any server-side logging or diagnostic tool on CDash that could help identify whether the submission was received but not displayed, or never received at all?

Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

The CDash mailing list is probably a better place to ask questions about CDash usage. [https://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cdash](https://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cdash)
