	No chance. You'll have to copy them before they are uploaded. To achieve that, you could suspend network activity via Activity menu in BOINC manager's advanced view and only resume it for short periods when you have copied all tasks.

	Sorry, I'm no Mapview user, but you could do an Advanced search (top left corner of this page) of the forum for "mapview" or "logx" (without the quotes) over at least six months. Gruß, Gundolf

It is possible to see later these copied files in the Mapview ? Thank you You don't need to do this manually - BoincLogX will do this automatically For setting BoincLogX look my answer here: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=55127&nowrap=true#927634 You can find BoincLogX 1.52 & SetiMapView 6.54 here: http://www.bjoernhenke.de/frame.htm?/boinclogx/index.en.htm ____________ - ALF - "Find out what you don't do well ..... then don't do it!" :)

	Hello, Thank you for your answer In fact BoincLogX do it automatically. But, i´m talking about the tasks that i uploaded with Boinc to SETI before BoinclogX installation. After Upload the files aren´t anymore in my PC Can you help me ?

	Hello Gundolf, OK it seems impossible. But how can we look for my founded best results, like Triplets and spikes ? It looks that it is only possible to check our credits, but in fact i´m not interesting in credits ! I just want to study the places and signals of my best results. Only SETI know it ? In that case should not SETI or BOINC advice us that we should install LogX before Boinc Manager ?

After Upload the files aren´t anymore in my PC Can you help me ? AFAIK - There is NO way to get them - the WUs and the result files are deleted both on your PC and on SETI servers - only the found signals (and who found them) are put in the science database which is not accessible by the users. ____________ - ALF - "Find out what you don't do well ..... then don't do it!" :)

	Hello, We are talking about a cientific project with global world interest ! And the point isn´t just the fact that we are giving or not our contribution. The data stored just should be public ! The behaviour of a Scientific institute, should be based on transparency and sense of duty to the world by sharing information. That is really wrong !

	There is no way in the world Seti can give everyone access to the master database. Just having the NiTPiCKeR software scanning that continuously updating database to make a list of possible interesting results that should be re-observed is tasking the Seti resources. Allowing the over 300 thousand currently active users to query it is just not something that is possible to do. Now, if you have a hundred million dollars to donate for the necessary hardware and manpower then maybe.... ____________ Questions? Answers are in the "Unofficial" BOINC Wiki.

(Third party as Lunatics do great job in optimizing SETI apps sources.) Is it possible that (backup copy of) the science database be given to third party (e.g. BOINCstats) once a week or month? Maybe they will find the time and resources to make search engine for users to "explore" the found "signals"? _ ____________ - ALF - "Find out what you don't do well ..... then don't do it!" :)

	How would you like to transport those several terabytes of data? ;-) And think about the time needed for the copy process.

Don't they make backups of the science database (and send them to another town/country)? What if fire in the lab? Or big earthquake in California? Or US government decides to confiscate the data and send SWAT team? Or hackers break-through? Or thieves steal the HDDs? ... ____________ - ALF - "Find out what you don't do well ..... then don't do it!" :)

	Hello, If is a big ammount of data, there is one more reason for the data don´t be deleted from our PC. Why BOINC manager instruction programm delete the data after the upload ? Why we are not adviced to install Boinclogx first ? If you have a good reason please explain to me, because i really don´t understand !

	Hello, Is good to know it ! But i´m talking before NiTPiCKeR analysis.... Why Boinc manager delete the data from our PC ? Just doesn´t make sense !

	BoincLogX is a third party program, not made or updated by Berkeley. It's your choice to install it, it doesn't need to be installed for BOINC, or any projects you're attached to, to run. As to why BOINC deletes results after upload? To save space and clean up after itself. Perhaps that Seti doesn't have that big a files - 350KB to 8MB - but other projects can have extremely large files. CPDN comes to mind with result files that easily pass 500MB. Keep a couple of those on your drive and wonder where all the space went. Remember that not everyone has terabytes of space to work with, there are still a lot of older computers out there with only 512MB RAM and little disk space. You really want to burden them with files to keep? ____________ Jord - BOINC FAQ Service - BOINC User Wiki Real is just a matter of perception.
