more data on the way

In an attempt to push some older unanalyzed files through the pipeline we encountered data that could not be successfully preprocessed or split. This has resulted in work distribution going to near zero. We are currently transferring newer files from off site storage and soon will be receiving a disk shipment from Arecibo. Once these data are on hand work distribution will pick up.

Are the data packets small enough to be accomplished within a month? I don't mind dedicating my main computer to analyzing only those packets to help catch up (credit or no). Just yell if there's anything i can do.

Thanks for the info Jeff!!!

Well, it was worth a shot...

I have two computers and about four or five files to upload and the program keeps backing off from the upload. when I did get new data on one of my computers I had to stop getting tasks because I recieved 30 or more files for crunching, working through those now and will continue, but the files are not uploading as of 8 pm eastern time on the 13 Sept.

lovely that it is back!!!!

Are you sure? Data stopped arriving yesterday. Any reason for this?

I've gotten ALOT of CUDA downloads and have some waiting to download, but I haven't gotten any normal workloads in quite some time.

I can concur with the lack of downloads. My log is chock full of "Scheduler
request failed: Cound't connect to server". I'm patient, but I would like to
get some work units (CPU or GPU) downloaded soon. I've had my best machine
idle for the past 3 days, due to a lack of work units, or problems in accessing
the site (know it's been down due to technnical problems).

I also find it interesting that, sometimes, after the weekly downtime (or during
unexpected downtime) that one of my machines will get no work units, while most
all of the others download a full share. And, many times, one machine will get
a pant load of CPU work units and no GPU units, while the other servers get a
mix. I don't understand why this would be, and it truly is of no great import,
but I thought I'd mention, as that segues quite nicely to a suggestion I'd like
to offer.

Not sure it is possible, but it would sure be nice if a the BOINC manager had
a means of transferring work units from one machine to another. I've got 7
active machines, and such a function would be quite nice when one machine is
loaded up with GPU work, while another machine with GPU work has no work units.
Probably a better board for offering this, so I'll poke around.

Hi all,

the lack of data brought up an interesting discussion with my friends.
There are two things I want to point out here:
The signal from our Pioneer and Voyager Vessels are ~60dB below noise-level. They use a form of noise-reduction to extract the data from the incoming signal. Would it make sense to to the same here?
The other point is: Are there other informations in the data, that could be extracted? As far as I understood it, Astropulse is one form of doing that, but is there anything more we could do?

This could fill up the 'dry zones'.

Does anyone have an update on the status of GPU jobs for S@H? I now have a good bit of CPU work running, but haven't seen any GPU (cuda) jobs.

Also, want to express my thanks to the Seti@home team for all the fine
work they have done.

Thanks

Claggy discovered and reported a problem last night. There is a fix available now, and the plan is to deploy it sometime 'today' - but that's a pretty elastic term, depending on workload and whether any other problems need to to solved first. It doesn't seem to have arrived yet, but there's still time (remember that the project staff are on Pacific time).

I was wondering. Thought my puter deoderant wasn't working :)
____________

Are there any further updates, today, on the availability of S@H cuda work units?

Thanks,

Coyote
