Steps to Reproduce

On any New York instance:

  1. Activate and Run scheduled job "CMDB Health Dashboard - Relationship Compliance Processor"
  2. Wait a bit
  3. Open the error log --> several errors as below appear:

Workaround

This problem has been identified as a symptom of a wider platform problem:

That is fixed in at least the Paris release. Follow that link for further details.
