Set to NNT.

Ran down cache, currently empty.

Patiently waiting for the server move to be completed.

System maintenance on my cruncher this week.

Cheers!

Not here, I've got a full load and will continue crunching while the servers are down. When I run out, I'll open up and clean my tower.

All my cleaning was done at the beginning of autumn here while swapping old and new GPU's around but I'll take all the work that I can for as long as possible.

Once the SETI feeding stops then I'll set NNT but not before and then I'll change that back just prior to the servers coming back online time is due.

During that time as certain types of hardware here run out of SETI work they will then just pick up work out of my backup projects that I have selected for that particular piece of hardware to do.

Cheers.

Was there a shorty storm overnight?
I noticed the number returned per hour was way up there, and my log shows lots of Scheduler requests that just got "No tasks sent" as a response.
When i was finally given work it was 10-20 at a time, one request even resulted in over 50 WUs.

I've also seen this error numerous times and it gets annoying after a while. I'm not sure what causes this, but I also have seen "This computer has reached a limit on tasks in progress". This is another one that makes no sense when I'm nowhere near the limits. Oh well, at least I'm not the only one seeing these weird errors.

Yes, there was a shorty storm.

Yes there was a little bit of a shorty storm for GPU's as most of the work being handed out at the time was AP's and VLAR's.

Cheers.

Set "no network communications" on both of my crunchers. They were sitting on full 10-day cache when I did that. Really should plan for some spring cleaning though. I know the main cruncher is going to have quite a lot of that very fine powdery dust built-up inside. The air filters on the front do pretty well for the larger stuff, but still lets the powder-sized particles through.

Yeah, i've had a few of those responses over the last couple of days, even when i was beleow the 100 per CPU/GPU limit. I'd get several in a row, then it'd fill it back up to the limit, then keep it at the limit with subsequent requests. Then a while later say i'd reached the limit again when i hadn't...

That behaviour will stop once the flood of AP's finally stops (so long as no more files are loaded to be split that is).

[Edit]The download speeds will also improve at that same time too.[/Edit]

Besides the Seti Beta load I have seen something I haven't seen in a long time : one of the rigs filled up to 255 tasks in progress. Anomaly?

You, we're back - first load of downloads just landed, all 100 of them. Mostly VLARs with a couple of APs for good measure

I pushed through my uploads and reported, but got No tasks available. Einstein marches on...

Very good :)

Something must be wrong. The new cricket peaked out at close to twice what the old one did, and it is not saturated. This can't be real..... I must be dreaming. :D

I'm still waiting for the rest of my 100 ATI AstroPulses. My main card was down to 3 left when the downloads resumed. I've received a few handfuls, but the rest have yet to come. The only machine that was totally out of GPU tasks was the first to be topped off. It went like this;
Wed 03 Apr 2013 04:59:54 PM EDT | SETI@home | Sending scheduler request: Requested by user.
Wed 03 Apr 2013 04:59:54 PM EDT | SETI@home | Requesting new tasks for NVIDIA
Wed 03 Apr 2013 04:59:57 PM EDT | SETI@home | Scheduler request completed: got 91 new tasks
Wed 03 Apr 2013 04:59:59 PM EDT | SETI@home | Started download of 29jl12ac.14732.17654.206158430221.10.27
.

Wed 03 Apr 2013 05:00:17 PM EDT | SETI@home | Finished download of 29jl12ac.14732.17654.206158430221.10.24

Yes, 18 seconds, at 8 at a time. 18 seconds to download 91 Multibeam tasks. That's remarkable. It was finished before I even got to the transfers tab, I didn't know I needed to hurry. The real test will be the APs.

I'm waiting...

I am really impressed at the speed of the new connection. I was able to download 54 MB tasks and I would say less than 10 seconds. Steve can you give us any pointers to where the new graph is or did you just take a wild guess about maxing out at twice the speed of the other one?

Well done to all the team in the lab and of the team down the hill.
