Viewing the present situation,
1. Einstein is down
2. Seti Beta is likely to be down.
3. It's poets day
[b]P[/b]	P***
[b]o[/b]	off
[b]e[/b]	early
[b]t[/b]	tomorrow's
[b]s[/b]	Saturday

i.e. the weekend. Should we be preparing to panic.

I don't crunch Einstein
I don't crunch Beta.

So I, for one, am not panicking. ;)

Maybe now is the time to increase the workunit cache. I hate to f**t around with that but it gives me an idea.

LOL, good one!

Although as I've said before I'll panic anytime anyone wants.... For a fee. :-)

Eric is trying to run everyone's cache down on Beta so we can start testing new units ASAP.

If you want to stock up on SETI (not beta), that's a different matter.

i increased my cache from 0.1 days to 2 days. i think that was a prudent move anyway in case there was an outage that lasted longer than 3-4 hours.

When in danger or in doubt,
Run in circles; scream and shout!

I find that at least one of the projects I crunch for manages to be up most of the time. If I run out, I can always shutdown and blow the dust out of the mb, ps and fans.

Then there's always the mowing, whipper-snippering, weeding, re-fitting the tiles to the shower wall, grocery shopping, keeping an eye on the youngster...

In other words... LIFE!
