Description
Steps to reproduce:
List the minimal actions needed to reproduce the behavior.
- Add Tasks in InfluxDB UI
- Use CRON to specify Task Run time
- Task Run time is the correct time RUN but the influxDB service in Ubuntu cannot find this task
- After a few hours it will run successfully
Expected behavior:
Task run less than 4 minutes
Actual behavior:
Task run is mostly less than 4 minutes, but sometimes runs for more than ten hours
Environment info:
InfluxDB Version: v2.6.1
Host OS: Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS (GNU/Linux 5.4.0-139-generic x86_64)
Host Memory: 125G

Research direction
Start with the reproduction steps for tasks created in the InfluxDB UI and scheduled with CRON on Ubuntu, then inspect the attached logs and performance screenshots. Determine why a task sometimes takes more than ten hours instead of under four minutes; done means the delayed execution is explained and a focused fix or diagnostic is validated against the reported behavior.
