For forums without any form of network, it's weird to see them up. I would've expected both these and the BOINC forums to be unavailable, but albeit slow, they are available. I don't think anybody's quite figured that one out yet. Would be interesting after the fact to know what the alternate, though very limited, bandwidth path was.

Looks like it is recovering. Cricket says it is back. Uploads are still a pain, but I got enough through to get a work request and got a big bunch. Downloads are okay thanks to timestamps.

I envision they were upgrading hardware and moving cables from one piece of equipment to another. Which saturated the old equipment for a duration making things slow for us.

Now if they were only doing the optical cables then there's no mystery as the copper line that SETI has has likely been doing the work. Cheers. |

Blue line is sunk http://fragment1.berkeley.edu/newcricket/grapher.cgi?target=%2Frouter-interfaces%2Finr-250%2Fgigabitethernet2_3;view=Octets;ranges=d Project back off for 5+ hours on uploads and downloads. Edit: looks like it just went down for a byte ( LOL ) and came back up for air again... |

Blue line is sunk Yes, look like part of the 'net took a little nap. Remember, though, that that is a suppressed-zero graph; the blue line was at the bottom only because that was the lowest it had been in the graph's interval -- it only got down to about 5 Mbps. |

I could be wrong, but........ The kitties sense a disturbance in the force. My cache has been holding steady near the limits since Tuesday's outage. It has dropped over 100 tasks in the last half an hour. And this is with 9 rigs running, not an anomaly with one rig. Hope I am wrong. Meowhmmmmmm. EDIT... Don't think I am wrong. Cache is down almost another 100. Something's gone asunder. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

I could be wrong, but........ Yeah, something is messed up, but it doesn't seem to be the servers. My work cache on three rigs is dropping as well, but if I go the projects tab, highlight seti, and check properties, I find that all three rigs are in "workfetch backoff" for both CPU and GPU, for time periods ranging from a few minutes to over 40 minutes. The properties tab is the only place I can see this backoff. BOINC still runs scheduler requests every 5 or so minutes, and reports completed work, and asks for more. But the only return I get is "no work sent". I've seen this behavior before, and have no idea why it occurs. I will say, though, that it eventually corrects itself. Hope this post goes through though. I keep getting connection errors on the board here. Nowhere else, just the forums. This is the third time I've tried to post this. EDIT: Ahh.. finally! |

EDIT... Of the 3 SETI hosts 2 have 200 tasks each and they are still getting replacements for the finished tasks, the 3rd one is slower and has only 145, but it is because is asking only for GPU tasks which have already reached the limits... Wow... it's really a disturbance in the force... Im not having issu... mmhh... I'd better not say that... ;D |

But the only return I get is "no work sent". Just had a look in my log & noticed several "No work sent" responses in a row, then finally it allocated 10 WUs. Requesting GPU & CPU work, i notice there's now a lot of VLARs about. I suspect that's what's resulting in the "No work sent" messages- the Scheduler gets in a bit of a bind when CPU & GPU work is requested, but only work for the CPU is available. Grant Darwin NT |

Seems to have been a transient problem. As of this morning, all is back up to snuff again. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Was trying to figure out why my single-core machine was going through an AP and had like 25 or 30 restarts in the stderr output. Then I put two and two together and realized that my 20-month-old niece figured out there's a reset button on the front of that machine. Soooooo.. took the cover off and unplugged the button from the board. Problem solved. Linux laptop: record uptime: 1511d 20h 19m (ended due to the power brick giving-up) |

Is it just me? But uploads are having a real struggle just now, with lots of re-tries and long periods of nothing. Just a thought, is Bruno feeling OK, or is the thought of the change of environment getting to the old boy?

Yep, uploading is like pulling hen's teeth. :-( Cheers. |

Yeh, I was up a 6:30 this morning (Melb, Aus) and it was like that then ... sucks doesn't it ... |
Wiggo Send message Joined: 24 Jan 00 Posts: 34744 Credit: 261,360,520 RAC: 489 |
It does and the likely culprit, as usual, is far too many AP's going out at once. Cheers. |

ditto on the u/l problems. Cricket graph shows spiky since the outage, now trending into the toilet. |
