Hi folks :)

I've got a silly problem...
I have two rigs, which are "dead" since february... But in my computer list (in my account), they still have their old, I mean last recent credit... THEY DON'T DROP, so i cannot delete them... :confused:
They seems to be locked... The wierd thing is, in BIONC stast (i checked in synergy and boincstats too) they have the "normal", dropped, almost zero recent credit...
So I ask you, what's happening?!? :D

The RAC will not prevent the computers from being deleted. They must have unfinished work still assigned to them. Eventually that work will be finished and removed with no action on your part.

The RAC is normally decayed when new credit is added. There is also supposed to be a deamon that runs weekly but has apparently been turned off to reduce server load.

[edit] Most stats sites do adjust for the time since the last decay.

That is OK, but: they have no waiting credit, i told, they are dead for 2 months (9 weeks exactly), have a _fix_ recent credit, that's why I don't understand, what's happening.

If there are no results assigned to those computers you should be able to delete them. If not please post links to them since I cannot tell which ones they are from the list.

OK then, they are:

http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=428396
http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=401808
http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=428392
http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=443447

Four instead of two, but they are the "locked" computers... And there is no delete option.. :(

All of these have results for WUs that have not yet been purged from the database. The will become deletable only when the results (look at the number after "Results:") have been purged and the number becomes 0.
