Ive been jumping all over the threads, so I cant find wich one said that they have the new line run up the hill. I take it that it hasnt been connected yet?
If not any idea when it will be?

Oscar and a new line, should be a WOW moment right there.

I could be wrong, but if I recall correctly, the discussion was that the new fiber link was NOT going to increase Seti's bandwidth.

As I recall, the new fiber-optic line to the Space Studies Lab was run in July. That increased data bandwidth to the whole Lab, but S@H did not get a branch line upgrade to go with it.

Maybe we can do a fundraising drive for that around Christmas time. (8{)

It's gonna take me that long to recover from the last drive.....LOL.

Matt posted in No Work Issues (Jun 09 2010):

In any case we are collecting data at this point (on 2TB drives, which means we'll lose less data waiting for the Arecibo operators to swap out the older 500/750GB drives), and still have a backlog of stuff to process in our archives. The lab is also getting a Gbit link to the world in July so the slow transfers to/from these archives will no longer be a bottleneck. Note this link is for the whole lab and our SETI specific data link will remain at 100MBit. Still, it's an improvement.

- Matt

I also haven't seen any specific comment that the new Gbit link has been activated, but considering it doesn't directly impact what we're dealing with and that Matt was on staycation most of July that's not surprising.

You're probably not the only one.

Get your pocketbooks in order folks.......LOL.

"Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once."

I remember reading that regardless of when the link would be hooked up, SSL would then have gigabit, but S@H would still use a configurable limit of 100mbit instead of saturating the link. At least this way, other people in SSL can get data up and down the hill without much trouble.

That's pretty much what my recollection is as well, although I have not found the post where the discussion took place.

Just curious..

Noone else saw this?
Since ~ 16 hours the cricket graph show ~ 5 Mbits/sec DL / ~ 20 Mbits/sec UL.

Why?

I can't UL/DL.. ;-)

---

I noticed the same thing, No idea what's going on there.

Not sure why Cricket is showing activity, the server status page shows the upload and download servers off. It's only 6AM in Berkeley so I don't think anyone would be in this early. Didn't Matt mention something about checking the stuff they moved around? Probably just that.

PROUD MEMBER OF Team Starfire World BOINC

Yesterday was the UL server up for a while.
Got 75% of my WU's uploaded.
After that is was quit in the west. :D
No uploads, reports or downloads.
Maybe something simular happening now?
Or an early riser in the lab? :D

---

I hope it's some testing..
..and not a 'bad sign'.

Currently I can't connect to the .16 (UL), .13 and .18 (DL 1&2) server.. they are offline..

I hope I can enable in ~ 2 hours the network activity in my BOINCs and they can UL/DL/report/request.. ;-)

I have still a lot of DLs in the transfer overviews.. :-(

probably someone in the lab watching cute kittens on youtube. Or playing Halo.

Seeing as the BOINC database went back online yesterday, I presume the stats websites are updating, causing the spike in bandwidth.

probably someone in the lab watching cute kittens on youtube. Or playing Halo.

But with ~ 18 Mbits/sec traffic, this are HD-videos.. right? ;-D

Or a 'LAN-game-party'? :o)

At those hours... I doubt a lan party. More likely a janitor playing chat roulette.

Is SETI-Beta taking uploads ? It's been down for a while, maybe they're letting it catch up.

Well, I think the server closet used to be a janitor's closet........perhaps they forgot.

Seems that once in a while they plugged the vac in there too.

Nope, no Seti Beta uploads aren't going throgh, and neither are scheduler requests,

It could be that Boinc Alpha is on their new Server and is at the moment using Seti's Link for uploads and downloads,

or Seti could be transfering work to/from offsite storage.

Claggy

I just had most of my completed work upload, but can't update or download.
