------------------------------------------------------------

Hi,
Looks like adding _'priority_weight'_ to DAG arguments solves the problem.
It causes the scheduler to send to queue the hourly jobs before the daily jobs.

[~jlowin] I'll appreciate if you'll provide a working example of using xcom as 
you described.
I have the hourly DAG in the description, and I should add: 
_'xcom_push=True'_ (or use another PythonOpertaor).

The Daily DAG runs once a day, 
*how can I ensure (in the daily DAG) that all hourly tasks of previous day were 
executed?* 
If I understand correctly, the xcom_pull() receives the last pushed value.
Thanks

> We are trying to use 'ExternalTaskSensor' to coordinate between a daily DAG 
> and an hourly DAG  (daily dags  depend on hourly).
> Relevant code: 
> *Daily DAG definition:*
> {code:title=2_daily_dag.py|borderStyle=solid}
> default_args = {
>     …
>     'start_date': datetime(2016, 4, 2),
>     …
> }
> dag = DAG(dag_id='2_daily_agg', default_args=default_args, 
> schedule_interval="@daily")
> ext_dep = ExternalTaskSensor(
>     external_dag_id='1_hourly_agg',
>     external_task_id='print_hourly1',
>     task_id='evening_hours_sensor',
>     dag=dag)
> {code}
> *Hourly DAG definition:*
> {code:title=1_hourly_dag.py|borderStyle=solid}
> default_args = {
>     …
>     'start_date': datetime(2016, 4, 1),
>     …
> }
> dag = DAG(dag_id='1_hourly_agg', default_args=default_args, 
> schedule_interval="@hourly")
> t1 = BashOperator(
>     task_id='print_hourly1',
>     bash_command='echo hourly job1',
>     dag=dag)
> {code}
> The hourly dag was executed twice for the following execution dates:
> 04-01T00:00:00        
> 04-01T01:00:00
> Then the daily dag was executed, and is still running....      
> According to logs, daily dag is waiting for hourly dag to complete:
> {noformat}
> [2016-05-04 06:01:20,978] {models.py:1041} INFO - 
> Executing<Task(ExternalTaskSensor): evening_hours_sensor> on 2016-04-03 
> 00:00:00
> [2016-05-04 06:01:20,984] {sensors.py:188} INFO - Poking for

> 1_hourly_agg.print_hourly1 on 2016-04-02 00:00:00 ... }}
> {noformat}
> How can I solve this dead-lock?
> In Addition- I didn't understand if it means that the daily dag depends only 
> on the "last" hourly dag of the same day (23-24pm)? 
> What happens if the hourly dag of other hour fails?
> Thanks a lot!
