Just a puzzle is all. |

I see now you were talking about work "In Progress" and I have often wondered the same thing and also why a bunch of tasks that have that same "Sent" time have different deadlines. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable will stop by. |

Don't bother looking at what the recorded date was, they load files that they want to process, it might be from 2011 or 2015, and they don't come in order. |

A "standard" workunit, with an angle range centered around 0.40, had a deadline of about 6 weeks or so. Workunits with angle range below the standard angle range take a bit longer and have a deadline of about 8 weeks. You will see them flagged with .vlar in their name, for Very Low Angle Range. On the other side are workunits above the standard range that take less time to process & therefor have a shorter deadline of about 3 weeks. Also called VHARs or "shorties". BOINC will process tasks in FIFO mode unless it thinks there will be a deadline issue. Then it will process tasks in order by deadline. You will also see the Status as Running, high priority. This often happen when we get a load of shorties from the data sets. SETI@home classic workunits: 93,865 CPU time: 863,447 hours Join the [url=http://tinyurl.com/8y46zvu]BP6/VP6 User Group[ |

Thanks HAL. That was unexpected. Had no idea that much went into it; nor that even such parameters were in play. Just Nouveau Riche here celebrating my first Million marks on my single Host. Still figuring out how things work and what if anything I can do about it (tweaking, tuning, troubleshooting) All of you have been just Grand. I appreciate it. = I'm *guessing then that the Pending units buildup is more related to the wingman background shuffle; and the possibility that I may have been an early recipient of this batch (after Outage reload) - somebody's gotta be first - wingmen will follow soon enough. |

What, no Tuesday Outrage yet? And Panic Mode On after that yet :) "Please keep Your signature under four lines so Internet traffic doesn't go up too much" - In 1992 when I had my first e-mail address - |

Hope it goes well today. We are doing shorties, and those GPU caches aren't going to last long. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Time to update BIOS. I Hope when I come back it is TO (Tuesday Outrage). If not, then I succeeded to update it fast. If not, then I failed to update it. "Please keep Your signature under four lines so Internet traffic doesn't go up too much" - In 1992 when I had my first e-mail address - |

Time to update BIOS. Best of luck then. My stuff is so old they don't do bios updates anymore...LOL. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Yep, that's pretty much how it works. A lot of your Tasks, you are paired with a slower wingmate. They will get done eventually, and you will get credit when the Task validates.

Thanks Donald. Just a quick look as we reload and update post Outage here, 110 out of 120 (the first 6 pages of the Pendings) are my CUDA MBs received and ran over the last 3 days. I usually only *investigate wingmen on much older lagging tasks and of course have seen what I've seen with those - abandons, timeouts, errors while and whatnot. Only been doing this right at 4 months. I imagine I haven't seen *everything yet! Plenty to learn about these rhythms and patterns. Trying to work *with it. |

Way to go on this weeks maintenance! RTS never hit 0 and graphs indicate every thing is returning to normal. Job well done Matt and the team! |

SAH v7 assimilators are offline and the assimilation queue is building. Hope we don't have database issues again. |

SAH v7 assimilators are offline and the assimilation queue is building. Yea its a bit strange to see that they recovered nicely after maintenance then shut down. |

So there are 12 sah assimilator (v7) processes now? I don't recall there being so many previously. I wonder if that is related. SETI@home classic workunits: 93,865 CPU time: 863,447 hours Join the [url=http://tinyurl.com/8y46zvu]BP6/VP6 User Group[ |

Maybe Matt fired some extra ones up when working on that huge backlog we had.... Meanwhile, the fact that they are all shut down could point to another DB problem, as they are on both vader and georgem, so it's not just one server locking up.
