Assert 1000 wlmquery-GetBurstState() == WLMQuery::RunOnBurst - burst state

Question

Since switching on auto WLM management overnight, we're seeing intermittent errors like the following:

```

```

This is happening on a variety of queries that previously ran without incident.  Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot and/or fix?  
  
Thanks

Hi BarkMBishop,  
  
For any assertion an immediate AWS support case is the best course of action and likely the fastest response if you have an AWS support contract.   
  
However, a post to the forum is helpful to rest of us customers for our awareness and to help us all get the customer count on the issue up to a more representative level.  
  
So thanks for posting here (too)!  
  
Regards,
