I see no message in any threads that the servers are down or anything contrary to normal activitie(s). I have reloaded the software, rebooted the computers, etc., but to no avail!!!

At the time of writing this, none of the multibeam splitters are running meaning no Seti Enhanced work is being split. Astropulse work is being split, but at a slow rate. In the past days prior to Tuesday's weekly outage, work splitting was already done at a minimum, what work there was would be gobbled up by other machines.

Seti never said they can guarantee work 100% of the time. If you want to keep your machines busy, attach them to other projects and else shut them down to preserve energy.

When you can't upload or download work units, the first place to look before reinstalling the software, or even rebooting is the Server Status Page, which is linked from the HOME page above.

What I was looking for is some explanation of why all of the MB splitters are down.

I have suggested this before, and will do so again.

There needs to be a thread with "Outage" in the title where the people who work at S@H will post notices of

  • Outages
  • Fixes
  • Estimates of when the problem will be fixed.


This will allow us to subscribe to that thread so that we will be notified whenever there is a new post.
