Hmmm. I wonder if the recent server problems, have anything to do with the 17 Orphan WUs that I've got, or should that be, not got? Don't take life too seriously, as you'll never come out of it alive! |

Ok, uploads are working again. Now, take it easy folks, don't break something again :-) Yes, keep the finger away from the retry button... As much as possible lol :) |

Got all the backed up work uploaded and reported from the Frozen 920. But it appears the validators might not be working, as all 600 some tasks went directly to the pending bin. "Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once." |

From now until the ALFA receiver system is brought down for servicing in late July, it will be used only by the A2130 GALFACTS project which produces only VHAR "shorties", according to the aoschedule page. The A2010 ALFALFA observations which give most of the midrange tasks are not being done now, their "spring 2011" campaign ended March 21 or so. They would have started "fall 2011" observations in August, but will have to wait until ALFA is back in operation. The A2133 Alfa Ultra-Deep Survey which produces mostly VLAR tasks was getting observing time most days until June 5, that will help the bandwidth. And there were some A2048 AGES and P2030 Pulsar survey observations in May which will help somewhat. IOW, while we're basically doing work in the order received from Arecibo the trend is likely to be toward more shorties. I have no idea how much uncrunched data is in storage. My guess is the project may work toward being able to use the GBT Kepler field observations rather than pulling Arecibo data out of storage. Joe |

Got all the backed up work uploaded and reported from the Frozen 920. [As of 22 Jun 2011 | 17:30:05 UTC] the sahvalidators on bruno were not running. They may need more of a "kick" than the upload server did. Donald Infernal Optimist / Submariner, retired |

Got all the backed up work uploaded and reported from the Frozen 920. A little birdy just told me (kitties luv birdies) that Bruno is the main culprit lately. Might have a failing CPU or worst case, mobo. A CPU transplant is scheduled for some time next week, in the hopes that will cure Bruno's ills.

Well, once they started my uploads flew in. As to the validaters on Bruno, I guess they can't kick him as hard anymore. He's getting too old for that. They have to just kind of gently nudge him in the direction they want him to go and hope for the best. :-) PROUD MEMBER OF Team Starfire World BOINC |

Got all the backed up work uploaded and reported from the Frozen 920. Dunno, unless there could be a stressful chron job that launches at that time. Perhaps Synergy can be put back on the validation task until dear Bruno gets his feet back under him. "Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once." |

IIRC, we had an issue with the Sun boxes running redhat (rhel4) that would force boxes down when it rolled the date over. I believe this was partly fixed by relaxing a cron process to 30 minutes instead of 15 and a bios update. However, in this case, I don't think thumper has been the primary culprit. Although it has certainly had it's raid issues. Kevin "Two things are infinite: The universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe." - Albert Einstein |

Got all the backed up work uploaded and reported from the Frozen 920. LOL...I'll wait to give up until I get home from work in 11 hours and see what's kickin'. And then I'll wait some more...years, that is. "Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once." |

A CPU transplant is scheduled for some time next week, in the hopes that will cure Bruno's ills. That is useful information. Hope the transplant works.

Well, I wonder if they're going to turn on sah validators before they go home, or if we have to guess our RAC for yet more hours... Just so long as they turn them on right after the once every 24 stats export is done. |

Well, I think the validators just came online. My credit is starting to climb. Starting with the northeren crunchers? :) For I still get nothing. :( Goodbye Seti Classic |
