I remember that a power outage was scheduled for last week to diagnose the wiring problems in the SSL building. Did that ever happen? You will be assimilated...bunghole! |

I was wondering the same thing and what the findings were. Jim |

I haven't been able to upload any of my completed packets for a week or more. Just shifted over to BIONC from classic a few days before that, so I'm still trying to learn how it works. |

After I first asked here, I un- and re-installed BOINC 4.19. I forced upload of all the completed work units. It then DLed one work unit (instead of the normal 4-6), ran it, uploaded it, then went back to the same "can't resolve" problem as before. >:( Actually, it went back to that problem after DLing that one work unit. :p |

> > > --- - 2005-03-14 17:54:08 - Can't resolve hostname setiathome.berkeley.edu > > > (host name not found) This message says that BOINC asked Windows to look up "setiathome.berkeley.edu" and it didn't get an answer. The rest of the errors follow from the fact that it couldn't find setiathome.berkeley.edu. Is this dialup? Was the machine dialed in at the time?? Solve the DNS problem and you've got it. |

> But months to order & fit new breakers??? Look.. these aren't the kind of breakers you buy at the corner store. One of them is the main breaker for the building. Something like $20,000. And remember this is a university environment. Issues about who's coughing up the dough have yet to be discussed, which will lead to all kinds of bureaucratic finagling. Anyway, this is, and has always been, completely out of our hands. They said the power should be stable at this point, and so we are happy. - Matt -- BOINC/SETI@home network/web/science/development person -- "Any idiot can have a good idea.

> And remember this is a university environment. Issues about who's coughing up the dough have yet to be discussed, which will lead to all kinds of bureaucratic finagling. That makes more sense. While not a commonly available item a breaker is a breaker. High load 3 phase devices while excruciatingly expensive are generally available with in a week or 2 from the time of ordering. Unless of course they're very old & different from the current standard in which case the entire switch board requires probably replacing & rewiring just to replace the breakers with newer ones. That's always fun. > They said the power should be stable at this point, and so we are happy. That's the main thing. Very good to hear. Grant Darwin NT |

When I was on the ship we had to stock fuses for our UPS, $25 each ... held on with 1/2 inch bolts ... I think they were 250A, one for each of the three phases ... |
