Panic Mode On (78) Server Problems?

Thank you, Juan!

Now we know that they know, and we all know that means they will fix the problem as soon as they can, as they have always done before. :)

They will be acknowledged as report right now only if you select "No New Tasks" on the projects tab.

I wish that were true.
I'll mention it again- even with only a couple of tasks to report & No New Tasks set the Scheduler still usually times out. Theres 1 time in about 20 where it doesn't.
Uploads have been slow for much of this time as well.

Something other than just bandwidth saturation is at play here.

Well it does on my system. Task gets done, it uploads and then the scheduler reports it, it goes through and the task vanishes from my client's task list.

Don't know what to say.

Just to add to the present fun, i'm now getting some "Couldn't connect to server" messages in response to a Scheduler request.

I'm having no trouble reporting 1-5 tasks every couple of hours. My cache got a little over-filled when I started hoarding APs, so I'm not asking for more work presently, which I suspect is nearly the equivalent of NNT, since both are effectively "not asking for more work."

When I was downloading the APs, they were coming in at around 25KB/sec for each one, sometimes I had 5-8 of them going at a time.

Ended due to UPS failure, found 14 hours after the fact

my linux boxes are reporting and obtaining normal work. but my one windoz box shows nothing but scheduler timeout. it seems to upload ok .. slowly but ok.

The kitties need access to the servers 24/7.

I can't believe it is Karma. It is just that the big guys are constipating the system. Everybody knows that. Until a politically acceptable and economic doable solution is proposed this is just venting.

You folks don't have a clue about hosts processing and trying to return 100s of results an hour.

Not the same as saying....oh, my rig did 2 tasks last hour, and both got reported just fine.

Yah, right. The kitties got YOUR back, bud.

Not dissing anybody, but it's a different class of problems here.

The kitties need access to the servers 24/7.

...and to rub salt into the wounds, on the one occasion where the Scheduler responded to a request for work, i got 1 WU.
1,000 would be nice, a couple of thosand would be better. Probably at least half as many again to fill my caches.
1 WU!

Perhaps this might be a situation where there is more than one problem occurring at the same time. That, as most of us know from experience, makes diagnosis exceedingly difficult, which seems to fit the current crisis.

Could this be a possibility? What do you think?
