Can one of the mods PM/Contact one of the project scientist to kick the servers to start work flowing again please. I know they can remotely run somethings without driving into the lab. Other wise I guess we will be without work until after the tuesday downtime/server shutdowns are done.

I think it's been noticed and something has been kicked, at least the traffic graph has jumped up again. But of course after the outage it's maxed out the network link, and it's going to be hit and miss getting work untill things catche up.

Matt's last technical news post alludes to some clogging up of the database servers with extra numbers of small MB workunits, due to the lack of big fat AP units.

They have a new (pre-loved) server to be installed and hopefully help out with the database issues, but I imagine that swapping that out will also cause some disruption.

Waiting is...

Here I wait
Spinning Atom CPU
In an idle state
Not a WU to do!

Entropy encroaching
Little processor that could
Time to do some coaxing
Kick the servers! Kick them good!

I didn't check in until 7pm Eastern time but it could have been them just taking a bit longer than usual. It happens sometimes. That and all the usual posters may be having dinner.

I am getting tasks, but rather slow and not all new tasks in one go.

On my other PC I'm not getting any tasks.

Anyway, don't think I've seen this before: Message from server: Completed result 15mr09ab.29032.8661.6.8.151_0 refused: result already reported as success

That can happen when the network is very busy.

You machine reports the W/U as done, and the server sends an acknowledgement. But due to network problems your machine never recieves that acknowledgement. Your machine tries to report the same work unit again, and the server says "Already got it".

So nothing to worry about.

The BOINC scheduler CPU truly is overloading. I'm getting tons of "No headers, No data" messages on one machine when I know another machine is getting WUs.

Network congestion and high CPU load on the scheduler... it's double trouble. But when the load goes down, things should be OK.

Well, interesting. I recently was able to upload 10 of 11 work units. The last is being very recalcitrant. It says it gets to 100% but doesn't complete the upload. As the deadline is a week out yet, I've got no worry. However I do wonder if something server side is going on. Perhaps the W/U is on a drive that has failed and is being re-synced? Could explain some randomness.

You reached your daily quota, so it won't send you any more tasks until after midnight PDT (utc-7).

Getting no new work messages even though server status states that it has even though this message was about a quarter of an hour old when read. I have a few so not worried.
