And right when I am trying to ramp up my production to hold off another OCAU team member passing me :-(

---

Is she still down? Or just choking on everybodies upload/downloads lol

Nothing is 'fool-proof', someone will always invent a better fool!

BOS says we're still unreachable. I'd hazard a guess that the data server is still down.

Ironically BOS itself was briefly unreachable (a crash, reason still unknown)

---

Indeed -- standard MO for sure.

I agree -- which doesn't do much for confidence in the reporting systems when the current report is:

Could this have something to do with some New Firewall Software they just installed? It looks like all their Machines are Up and Running but nothing can go In or Out. I found this in another Post today. It was supposed to be just on the Classic Side however.

Actually, no. This was the beginning of a new firewall policy that didn't work as expected. Web site should be up again now. As you were...

Hmm. last time BOS reported "Unreachable" while all servers was up, the problem was connectivety

Well, the Seti Classic side doesn't have a problem and has been working OK all of today. I last sent a unit out to Seti Classic within the past 15 minutes (I generate about 175 units a day from my Classic farm).

---

I'm starting to feel horribly frightened and alone. :-O

---

Its interesting to note, since BOINC is down, and classic is up, and they are still pulling about 2/3 of their normal bandwidth through their routers, that indicates to me that 2/3 of their network activity is still classic traffic.

sometimes i feel that the server status page is like a gas massage in a bean emporium , little accuracy but it'll get you in the nose every time!!!

---

S@H Classic seems to use 50MB/s of the bandwidth. BOINC uses 10MB/s generally.
For an external view of the status, follow this link to the BOINC Project Status for an external view of this case.

Hi all

I've notice a problem with seti today.

I agree the server status page is not as useful as it could be.

The validators have a growing backlog.

This would indicate data is getting in.

This might indicate a problem with outgoing traffic as I seem to have upload issues.

---

Anyone any idea howlong it will take until the problems are solved??
I have 50 CPU's waiting for data and several hundreds of data-units waiting to be uploaded

Regards,
Arie

Looks like network or firewall problem. I have no route through after packets are reaching UC's router on campus.

---

Hi, the problems are already running.

my teams cannot up-/download any wu´s. i hope the problem isn´t a larger problem, i don´t have any workunits to run boinc. all are ready to sent.

I've got no probs whatsoever.

My last Seti will be crunched some time today, and if that happens before the connection problems of this single project is solved, I won't crunch it for some days.
But the other projects will eagerly take over the free CPU time. That's exact the behaviour Boinc was designed for.

If you restrict yourself to only one project, you're CPU will cool down every now and then, at least when WU creation cannot compete with WU demand at some point in the future.

So join some other projects, and be happy :)

^So join some other projects, and be happy :)^

i joind some other projects, ...

but seti is the main-project. the only funny thing is that all the servers for SETI are running.

---

For once my timing was actually good and i just happened to increase my cache prior to the outage. When my last four Seti WU's run out, i've always got Einstein to keep my CPU nice and toasty. :)
