canned relish looks very thin

I canned 5 pints of relish today for a zucchini relish recipe using cucumbers instead. I have made this one other time using the cucumbers and didn't have a problem. The recipe is very similar to the one in the Ball Blue Book, only more. It has 10 cups zuc/cucs, 4 cups of onion, 4 1/2 cups sugar and 2 1/2 cups of vinegar. I simmered it for 30 min. Is it possible that I could "fix" the 5 pints? I was hoping that when the sugar cooled that it would thicken....it called for a tablespoon of cornstarch and I even added an extra but it is still soupy. Could I cook it again? I was even thinking of cooking some additional cucs down and adding it to what I already have.
