Why the hell can't we at least get a heads up on what the (new? old?) problems are?

I second,
I think it's a minimum responsibility and it doesn't cost much at all to do so. If I knew ahead of time I could plan on working on my hardware.....
I know I should have done it anyway judging from what's going on lately.

I think my status has been upgraded to being in SETI Hell verses merely AP Hell. AP Hell is just where your worse nightmares are experienced, ie things being lost during reshuffling. In SETI Hell you get to stare at amazement at a Cricket graph that shows normal traffic while none of your three computers can receive any work. According to the SSP 'Results received in last hour: 37,700', it seems some people are getting work while others aren't. Is anyone here getting any work? My three machines have been out for a day now.

No work here. I have no idea what the Cricket graphs are talking about.

This system is getting from bad to worse!! I have no more work units. I have only one computer, that I use for this and everything else. I been with SETI search since very early beginning. I have had more problems with this system now then in the beginning. Just about every week, something goes wrong, such as can't get new work units. can't send finished units, or system down. It seems like it's more prevalent during maintenance shut down, then when it running a normal weekly straight run? The updated system. to say the least has problems

Cricket graphs are mysterious for me too. Servers are sending ~normal data out (green graph) but I haven't seen any of it...

EDIT: Well, somebody did mentions somewhere that data is transferred to Lab, just couldn't find that post now...

I'm sure it will all be fine, in time for the next outage :-)
No tasks left to do now though. Fans are going at very low speed.

My temperatures at work have dropped from 75-80 C to 30 C. Apparently the CPU fan liked being warm, it's now making so much noise that I called the IT guy over and asked for a replacement!

Very hard to get through to the scheduler, and when you do get there, you don't get any WU's...

If it was simply data being transferred to the lab the SSP wouldn't be showing "Results received in last hour: 39,529 - 1m".
Someone is returning results. I suppose it could be people that still have work...maybe. But the number is going up, from 37,700 to 39,529, you would think the number would be going down if No one was receiving work...

I got some of mine reported a couple of hours ago

04/03/2015 14:36:46 | SETI@home | Sending scheduler request: To report completed tasks.

Yep. I'm still either not getting through at all or getting no tasks available, now on both crunchers.

Correct me if I am wrong but I thought that blue line in cricket is results send from us users to servers? Green is servers sending workunits to us users?

I still have some workunits under progress on my machines which were shutdown during weekend.

Green is data leaving the COLO, Blue is data arriving at the COLO. If the COLO was sending data to the lab it would show as Green, as it did when the AP database was sent to the lab. The 'Results received in last hour' just dropped to 32,118. The green is pretty solid, not jagged as usual. What the COLO could be sending to the lab is a mystery though, if it is occurring.

It was Joe Segur that said that, about 25 posts earlier in this thread:

That network traffic going out is apparently going to the lab, per the blue line on 8_34. There may be some very small amount of work going out too.
                                                                   Joe

8_34 is a router at Sutardja Dai, which talks to the Space Science Laboratory. So that would correlate with pulling data off the SETI servers at the co-lo (Earl Warren) and sending it back to the lab for analysis. And as Joe says, there could be some external downloads mixed in as well, although I haven't got any new tasks since around this time yesterday - and most of those have been returned already.

Long ago out of GPU work. CPU work will be gone within hours. Have 279 tasks to report on my big cruncher. Out of 300 max tasks I am allowed. Thought I could build up enough inventory to see me through the weekly outage. WRONG.

I second the opinion that we receive very poor communication on what is going on. It is disrespect for our time and effort.

That was post I was thinking about. Those two, seems to be equal. 6_17 and 8_34

I have long held the opinion that the project lacks effective communication with the crunchers and I am told by people here in the forum thats its a time issue. Would it really take more than a minute to place an item on the home page saying "We are aware of upload/download issues we are working on it".

I second this, the front page is usually always the 1st place people look to see "news or updates" not in " Number crunching" (no disrespect intended)
