Hurrah, as of 1250 PST (Berkeley time, or earlier) on Feb 15, the reporting of outstanding WU's (if you had them...) became possible.

Now, once you're sure that production SETI is stable, could you bring Beta back online?

Hello, from Albany, CA!...

Great the the servers are back up:-) OTOH a d/l rate of 0.43 kps isnt great:-/
Particularly when E@H was shoveling stuff at me at 600+ kps non stop..
Is that router playing up again?

Regards,

Greetings:

Is there a place to get up to the minute status on seti@home? I have not got a packet yet today. Just wondering and wanting, like everyone else, to be the breakthrough guy.

Thanks.

server have restarted, we are 500,000 pc asking for works, or we get no answers from peers, or we get no tasks available. some lucky got some works, it will take a while before all PCs satisfied. let your PCs asking and hope you find an hole where you ll get some.

I don't know where you got the 500,000 from as there are less than 280,000 active hosts but yes every one of them will be battling for work.

Cheers.

I see that you guys had a problem and supposedly it is now fixed. Well I have noticed that my Boinc Manager has not been running any work units for the past couple of days. It keeps reading "ERROR" "no work available to process". There is one work unit that is 100% complete but it has not been sent back to SETI, it's just sitting there in my "projects". Also, there is nothing in "tasks" and nothing in "transfers". I don't know if this problem is on my end or yours. Help!!! Help!!!

Josephine:
I think you're a little bit confused.
What you see in the "Projects" tab are not work units. This is a list of all your attached boinc projects, their share over your computer's resources, and their status.
Looking at your account, I see you're only attached to seti, so obviously you see a 100% share (which -I think- you're misinterpreting as a 100% completed work unit).
SETI has been having problems in the generation of new work for several days. That's why your pc -after finishing previously received work- has not received new work units to process and ran empty. So you see the "no work available to process" message in the seti's status.
Once we get back to normal (we're on that path) you'll see a list of your new work unints in the "Tasks" tab, with their respective status, progress bar, time elapsed, time to go, etc.

Hope it helps...

No WU to crunch since yesterday =)

N = R x fp x ne x fl x fi x fc x L

is there an issue with seti or are we just in a catch phase and i have been trying to get WU since 12th Feb without luck
just need to know so i can turn off PC's if not in use

Not so happy, seems the MB splitters are offline again:-( And no new work created..
Guess the servers waited until Matt went home and promptly went offline again.

Nope, just no tapes on the game...

i told it ! but nobody listen to me :S

in few minutes we will know if new tapes, will be automatictly sent to splitter's data bank to process (soon "09my11ad" will be finished)
or again, we will still have the same problem : no WUs cause none are made.

works fine for me!
great job guys!

Only a boy with responsabilities of an old man

Yup working for me as well, so far about 100 or so WU downloaded. Only problem is that the d/loads keep stuttering and stalling. Havta kick em in the rear end with network on/off routines.

Still its a lot better than a dry well:-)

Thank you. Yes, you did clear things up for me. I will now be patient and wait for the work units to come in. I did think that there was a problem with the communications between Seti and my computer. But, again you did clear that up for me.

You know, when we have a server crash or an outage at Home Depot, if i took this long to get the system back up, or properly notify the users of staging developments, I'd get fired...

yay. unions and tenure, eh?

>.< buncha dope smoking hippies running a mainframe if ya's ask me.

meh, sorry guys, we were out back hitting this new gravity bong and then Dweezle heard this sound, and it turns out the alarm had been going off for like, three days, and we were like wow man, and he was like totally man, then we hit the gravity bong some more...

then, when we woke up, the new parts were here and we totally put them on the server, but then we forgot, and we looked for the parts for like 2 more days before we finally found them on the server, then we hit the gravity bong some more.

when we finally woke up, Dweezle said, "Oh wow man, we totally need to put those parts in, otherwise the server can't actually get the downloads out, it can only accept queries", and we were like oh, totally man, then we hit the gravity bong some more...

<imaginary sequence ends fade-in>

FFS man, call geek squad if you can't fix it!!

I'd hope so.
It's a business, that's why they pay all the money for that hardware & support.
This isn't, they rely on donations. If you want them to have 24/7 up time & notifications of what's going on, how about you providing all the hardware & money required to support it?

Plus the people working on the setup only work on it part-time, unless you want to pay for a full-time person to baby-sit it all.

That would be a web enabled smartphone, right?

All they need to do is set up a log file, and monitor it with trace32.exe.

Set up ping over time to each server, an outbound and inbound bandwidth ping set for 20k packets, and have the scheduler log delivered WU's to the log as well.

Then, with a smartphone you could monitor the log, see any interruption to any server, any interruption to the outbound WU's, any bandwidth constraints or interruptions to the network, and from home, make a post online detailing whhic server is down,, and or what the problem is.

You could even sprint for a laptop if you wanted to spend some real money, and remote the servers or the monitoring PC.

Course, now we are talking nearly $600.

I'll spring for that though, if they are short.
