Without AP's in the system the cricket graph is sitting about where you would normally expect it to

Nope, after an outage it should still be maxed out untill caches are full. If there are a lot of shorties then there's no chance of caches being full so it should remain maxed out.

I've been getting lots of "Project has no tasks available" & "No tasks sent" messages.
On the occasion when i do get work, it's no more than 5 at a time. Often just one or 2. Once i hit the shorties i'll returning more than i'm getting with each download allocation.

Well I'm doing very well then with 15-50 being received with almost every request across all 3 of my rigs.

Cheers.

Well I know there are MBs out there and available. Just about every work request on my AP-only machine results in "No tasks sent; Your app_info.xml file doesn't have a usable version of SETI@home Enhanced."

Uploading and reporting work just fine though, but I haven't gotten a new AP assigned in over 24 hours. Not complaining.

At the moment the usual response to a request for work is "Project has no tasks available". The other responses are "No task sent" or "Scheduler request failed: couldn't connect to server".
I haven't received any work for over 4 hours. Cache continues to shrink.
And outbound network traffic is down, inbound is up- probably from all the Scheduler requests trying to get work that isn't forthcoming, even though the graphs show there's plenty there.

Well, i've received a few downloads since my last post, but it's mostly been "Project has no tasks available" with the odd "Scheduler request timed out".

Same story here ;). My best cruncher has run dry since yesterday. Got a few units to crunch at best, all shorties...

This ain't the first time and it won't be the last, in the meantime a backup project has been launched. Patience is a virtue...

Kind Belgian Regards ;)

Revenge of the cpu crunchers? Very little gpu work available since the weekly outage. Wassup?

seti@home Just checked here got 8 pending downloads (project backoff)
3 pending uploads. Those requests started about 30 mins ago. 12 tasks came in on the first request.

I keep getting this stupidly annoying message every 3rd request, "Tasks for AMD/ATI GPU are available, but your preferences are set to not accept them", which is absolutely pointless as I certainly don't have the hardware to support those tasks so why I should even see such a message is beyond me.

But other than that things are fine here.

Cheers.

My 3 machines have full caches since yesterday morning. Takes a while to get replacement WU's but supply is currently quicker than crunching so caches stay full. I will admit to a few "retries" yesterday but none have been needed today.

So nothing is "broken" just supply and demand :-)

AMD/ATI GPU are available, but your preferences are set to not accept them.


i get this message for CPU, ATI, GPU
At a host ask for CPU work the message is "task for GPU are available...
for NVIDIA i get sometimes the AMD message and sometimes the message CPU
task are available...

that must be a joke from the berkeley guys

Also got tired of seeing that message, so I have set my prefs to accept ATI work even though I don't have the hardware.

I did the same to get rid of it, so the logic now proceeds to the point where it says the feeder's empty anyway - "no tasks available." That has been on and off since last Thursday or Friday, but it didn't mean much when uploads were out over the weekend. I did fill up most of the way yesterday, but now I'm back to mostly empty feeder responses. Hope they can find that problem.

Hey, I've picked up 9 APs in the past 8 hours. Several were "received 2 new tasks." I think that's progress.

Well, most requests now result in getting some work (not alot, but at least some).
Problem now appears to be the download servers- we seem to be back to the past issues of the download starting, and nothing happening for up to a couple of minutes before it decieds nothing is going to happen, & it then times out. Or they all time out as soon as they start & we go into ever increasing backoffs at an increadibly rapid rate.
When things do actually start to download, the speed generally isn't too bad- even with the network traffic maxed out.

i agree, however my download speed is running between .50 KBps and 6.0KBps before going into "retry" mode .. making downloads quite lenghthy

Things have slowed down a bit since my previous post, but it's still not too bad most of the time- around 5-10kB/s.
It's just getting them to start downoading in the first place...
