Last modified: 29 Dec 2009, 11:22:22 UTC Just this second another task has completed:- Tue 29 Dec 01:58:11 2009 SETI@home [error] Error reported by file upload server: can't open file Tue 29 Dec 01:58:11 2009 SETI@home Temporarily failed upload of 09mr07ac.1342.5798.15.10.2_0_0: transient upload error Tue 29 Dec 01:58:11 2009 SETI@home Backing off 1 min 0 sec on upload of 09mr07ac.1342.5798.15.10.2_0_0 Tue 29 Dec 01:59:12 2009 SETI@home Started upload of 09mr07ac.1342.5798.15.10.2_0_0 Tue 29 Dec 01:59:19 2009 SETI@home Finished upload of 09mr07ac.1342.5798.15.10.2_0_0 Work Unit presently shows:- 1459626085 2881519 24 Dec 2009 3:15:53 UTC 28 Jan 2010 8:07:25 UTC In progress --- --- --- --- Anonymous platform 1459626086 5075156 24 Dec 2009 3:15:57 UTC 25 Dec 2009 16:28:36 UTC Completed, waiting for validation 53,475.39 51,629.38 47.45 pending SETI@home Enhanced v6.03 No doubt it will be like the rest after it hits the validating process like this work unit:- 1459626089 2881519 24 Dec 2009 3:15:53 UTC 29 Dec 2009 0:28:10 UTC Validate error 13,788.39 13,161.43 47.44 --- Anonymous platform 1459626090 4153097 24 Dec 2009 3:15:56 UTC 24 Dec 2009 20:52:49 UTC Validate error 54,427.63 29,454.61 47.45 --- SETI@home Enhanced v6.03 1463315663 --- --- --- Unsent --- --- --- --- 1463315664 --- --- --- Unsent --- --- --- --- I can now confirm that this last task was validated correctly, but none of those completed during the outage and reported before this one are still in the VALIDATE ERROR state as described in the last note above. So all seems o be progressing well now, but all the original VALIDATE ERRORS still need to be corrected (and should not be sent out for crunching by another 2 hosts?) Keith [P.S. Maybe we are not getting tasks downloaded even though 400,000 are ready to send. That is possibly to prevent the 2 extra unsent tasks being sent out from the work units containing the tasks flagged with VALIDATE ERROR??] ID: 959230 ·

Any other errors e.g. Compute Error are not affected by this problem. I have had some sucessfull validations since I created this thread so I am going to change the thread title from "WARNING: All tasks result in VALIDATE ERRORS 29/12" to "Many tasks result in VALIDATE ERRORS 29 Dec 09" ID: 959325 ·

Well hopefully it is fixed so it doesn't happen again or they know to watch for it now. In either case it's a success.

The two additional work units that generated show "not needed". Seems that after the RAID resync, everything could be back to normal. We need to thank the Berkeley crew for all their hard work.
