Hi,
this was fixed with the upgrade to PHEDEX_4_0_0 - now every block has a unique block-level subscription, and subsequent re-subscriptions (either at block or dataset level) will correctly supersede the parameters of the old subscription.
Cheers Nicolo'

Hello,
the BlockAllocator central agent is changing the priority for a list of blocks on every single cycle:

According to Ricky, this is caused by the fact that there are two subscriptions with different priorities to T2_US_Purdue for these blocks (one at dataset level, the other at block level), and BlockAllocator is oscillating between the two priorities, instead of superceding the block-level subscription with the dataset-level sub.
