AE Process DISTSTATUS in 'Not Posted'

Question

Hello
We have a problem with one of the AE Processes in Prod running to Success but 'Not Posted' (DISTSTATUS = '4'). All the other processes run fine with no issues. It was observerd recently by the User and was reported to us. Can you please suggest/help regarding this issue?
Details: AE has a recurrence set to run every week @ 1:00AM.
My work:
1) I deleted 2 rows (very old entries) in PS_CDM_LIST table that has a Dist Status of '1' Just to make sure that the tables PS_CDM_LIST, PSPRCSRQST & PSPRCSQUE are in Sync.
2) Altered the Prcs Defn but i did not boucne due to the unavailability of downtime.
Just to let you know i am think if a bounce of Prcs srv will help (or) If not do i need to delete and create a new recurrence??
Please Comment. Any ideas are appreaciated.
Thanks
vKing.

Answer 1

I altered the Prcs Defn and Log level to '5' then Re-configured all the Process Schedulers by clearing the cache. Once i restarted and reposted the content Process went to 'Not Posted' again. Additional Info i see now in the logs is...

and to add one more piece here... Another Process is going to 'Not Posted' when the trace is set to '-trace 3' with an Append Option on prcs Defn. when the trace is removed it is going to 'Posted' again. is this some tools issue?? we are on 8.46.19. I have not seen this earlier at my Prev Clients.
Please reply if any of u faced the similar issue at your client.
