Things were more or less calm around here. However thanks to our predictable nemesis autofs some things got a little murky yesterday. The mysql replica lost contact with the master - a regular occurrence - but we didn't get the warnings as mail was hung on a dead mount. Now that the replica has fallen behind (though it is catching up) the stats/server pages are a bit behind as well. This will clean itself up in due time. A few hours perhaps. Otherwise work/data seems to be flowing normally, or normal enough. Dave incorporated some new scheduler logic (not sure what offhand) that is being tested in beta, probably rolled out to the public tomorrow. I'm bouncing around between data management, radar blanking code, and OS upgrade projects today. - Matt -- BOINC/SETI@home network/web/science/development person -- "Any idiot can have a good idea.

Hope you had a refreshing break and consumed large quantities of turkey etc. Good to see that nothing major occurred during the break for you guys, and that things will be sorting themselves out in due course. Thank you as always for the information. ID: 836288 ·

Would this have anything to do with the testing of Replication=1, as discussed in Quorum, Replication? ID: 836368 ·

I'm guessing it's a memory leak bug fix (when client logging is turned on, such as it has been lately). - Matt -- BOINC/SETI@home network/web/science/development person -- "Any idiot can have a good idea.
