Does anyone know if there is a fix for this?

Hi @Sean

Your issue is similar to a recent discussion here → incomplete annotation with maker - #6 by jennaj

In short, the cluster node was not able to handle the data. That topic above has links to some resources and discussion about strategies. Maybe compare to the example workflow and explain what you are doing different? You can also share the job and I’ll double check that these are the same.

Let’s start there, thanks! :slight_smile:
