I don't seem to be able to upload tasks or get any at the moment. Thanks and thanks! #resist |

Good to see I am not the only "old timer" still patiently crunching.Now that explains why WCG went tits up yesterday as well... <LOL> (well, actually a rather sad situation) Ralf |

It's the GPUs that quickly ran out and are now idling until the servers come back online. I sometimes run Einstein as a backup, but for now the kitties will just wait it out on standby.

I don't seem to be able to upload tasks or get any at the moment. Bookmark the server status page while you're at it, and pay special attention to the [As of xxx] time in the top-left corner. And since 'ready to send' was below high water mark when the page froze, and the splitters were running, we'll probably have a big bloat of tasks to work off when things are working again.

Results ready to send:1,444,950 AND 30.01.2013 00:01:01 | SETI@home | Scheduler request completed: got 0 new tasks 30.01.2013 00:01:01 | SETI@home | Project has no tasks available SORRY! But messages like this only put more confusion to the user's brain than anything else does! Or is it because of my bad English? When I started with SETI June 16th 1999 (my first account), I thought SETI would be easy understanding and it would not need a lot of button-pushing. No it's confusing (see above) and my retry-button is almost kaput! |

Been not watching closely over the traditional Australia Day long weekend chaos, and my machines were crunching when I looked occasionally. If I had stuck transfers I just put this retryMainTransfers.cmd in my scheduled tasks for every 20 mins or so: Thanks! Will try SETI apps news We're not gonna fight them. We're gonna transcend them. |

Results ready to send:1,444,950 ...Every Tuesday morning (Pacific time) we begin a four hour data distribution outage for database and systems maintenance. The upload/download servers will be offline during this time. Afterwards you may experience connectivity issues for several more hours as the servers catch up with demand. 15 Jan 2013, 17:39:39 UTC This is nothing new... #resist |

Results ready to send:1,444,950 You are correct, Ex, that this is nothing new, but it is happening after I downloaded some work, and while the Server Status page shows 1.4 million "Results" ready to send. It is still confusing and misleading to send a message that there is no work available when so much is shown on the Status page. (And I've been here a while, too.) |

I like whatever got fixed during today's maintenance (if that even happened). For the past few hours, every scheduler contact attempt results in a reply within 3 seconds, and I've been getting a lot of "got 1 new tasks" to go with them, and the AP starts to download, and goes through completion without a single hiccup at 10-15KB/sec. This is more like it. Oh.. maybe that's because I still have a proxy enabled. Oops. Weird though, because the last time I was using a proxy, I would get HTTP error 417 for scheduler requests, and uploads wouldn't even go through, but everything is working perfectly with this proxy. Weird. Also.. Holy Ready to Send buffer..

AP waiting to validate & assimilate have cleared, the Scheduler is working & the huge Ready to Send buffer is rapidly shrinking down to a more normal size. *fingers crossed* Grant Darwin NT |

The message about "no work available" is certainly confusing, but its a standard message. The work is sent out in small batches of 100, once a batch has been assigned there is a short pause, and if you request work during that pause you get the message about "no work available". Confusing, but correct. Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

Actually, it is 200, and I don't know if it is still every 2 seconds or not. Used to be 100 every 2 seconds for the feeder. If it runs out before the next refill interval, you get "no work available." Mayhaps it should be updated to say "project has no work available at the moment." Also, it looks like MB is about to run out of tapes to split. I think it would be an interesting experiment to run with AP-only for a day or two to see how Cricket looks. It will probably just stay maxed out though. MB-only just about fills it when the limits are not enforced. Linux laptop: record uptime: 1511d 20h 19m (ended due to the power brick giving-up) |

Probably tempting fate here, but even though downloads are as crappy as they have ever been, and it was a longer than usual outage, the Scheduler responses are coming through within 5 seconds in most cases. Grant Darwin NT |

Also, it looks like MB is about to run out of tapes to split. Will probably last for a while as there is only on MB splitter that is alive at the moment. But it probably won't be long before it is needed- that huge Ready to Send buffer is shrinking rapidly. Grant Darwin NT |

Hello folks, What is the limit for a VLAR task ? I received a number of tasks that take much longer than usual on my GPU. Angle for these tasks seems to be 0.125883 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/result.php?resultid=2816144089 Are VLAR tasks being sent to GPU or are these tasks just closer to the limit than anything I have seen before ? Tom P.S. Sorry I posted this in the wrong thread first |

Do you mean an angular limit or an execution time limit? Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

Do you mean an angular limit or an execution time limit? I mean the angle. I didn't know there was a difference in handling execution time between VLAR and non-VLAR tasks. I thought the maximum execution time was always the estimated time multiplied by a constant (although I forgot the value of the constant). Tom |

Do you mean an angular limit or an execution time limit? MB tasks with AR < 0.120000 get the .vlar extension. Maximum execution time is indeed directly related to the raw estimate, a 10x multiple. However, the raw estimate is multiplied by Duration Correction Factor to give the actual estimate but the time limit does not use DCF. Joe |

The thin blue line on Cricket is heading south. More reporting problems. I'm sure it will all be fixed when they get in for work but this could be ominous coming before the weekend. |
