My stats have not updated for a couple of days. I was wonder when they will update. When Free DC stats are checked and you click on the position number you are taken to a spot 5000 records higher.

Details about our computers and tasks are kept up to date by the replica database server, which is offline. Not until it's back online and in sync with the master database server, will we be able to see these details.

Yesterday's maintenance has not brought the replica database server back online. Although it must've run for a bit, as details have been updated until ~16:53UTC yesterday.

I'm having a similar issue. I normally keep 10 days work of work to hold me over when there is an outage, but I'm down to 4 modules to process and these should be processed within the next day. Hope the servers permit downloads again soon.

Seti sends at maximum 100 tasks for CPU and 100 tasks for GPU, setting 10 days worth of work as a request can in situations like this get you no work. Try to lower your work request.

After running my cache empty earlier, I tried setting my old cache settings of 4 + 4.5 additional and got the answer from the server it didn't have work for me. That was because BOINC was asking for 716468.69 seconds worth of work (199 hours).
I lowered the work request to 1 days + 4.5 additional, and the next work request of 462856.77 seconds (128 hours) got me 25 tasks.

Setting 5+5 or 10+0 is just not going to work. Not with the task limits in place.
And those limits are per CPU and per GPU. Doesn't matter how many cores your CPU has, it'll get 100 max.
