    Hi Prasanna,
    Thanks for following up. The issue hasn’t occurred again. I made a couple of changes to optimize the code in the notebook that was failing most often (although the errors happened in several notebooks, not just that one), and it seems stable now. It’s been running for over a week without any failures.
    We can consider the problem resolved for now. If it happens again for any reason, I’ll reach out again to the community.
    Best regards,
    Carlos

Hi carlossoria , is there high concurrency ON for the notebooks? It may happen so that if some other notebooks are running using high concurrency session, this notebook may not have had sufficient resources to start execution. May be altering the spark cluster settings could help?

also usually retry option helps but you mentioned it's not viable as it could cause duplicates. I am not aware of your architecture but if the notebook has not run then why there could be duplicates if retried?
