Another problem shared from BETA, some of these Host detail numbers have been frozen all day. Namely the APR numbers.
SETI@home v8 8.11 x86_64-apple-darwin (cuda42_mac)
Number of tasks completed 135
Max tasks per day 156
Number of tasks today 2873
Consecutive valid tasks 54
Average processing rate 1,740.18 GFLOPS

SETI@home v8 8.19 x86_64-apple-darwin (opencl_nvidia_mac_old)
Number of tasks completed 139
Max tasks per day 52
Number of tasks today 2000
Consecutive valid tasks 2
Average processing rate 1,768.32 GFLOPS

By this time, the cuda42 numbers should be quite a bit higher, but, they haven't changed.

Just an update with the current 709 Server. Now the numbers are being updated normally, every time you report work and it's validated the APR numbers change. Using the 715 Server the APR numbers would stay frozen for weeks.

SETI@home v8 8.11 x86_64-apple-darwin (cuda42_mac)
Number of tasks completed 4895
Max tasks per day 5665
Number of tasks today 1854
Consecutive valid tasks 80
Average processing rate 1,786.14 GFLOPS

SETI@home v8 8.19 x86_64-apple-darwin (opencl_nvidia_mac_old)
Number of tasks completed 371
Max tasks per day 255
Number of tasks today 0
Consecutive valid tasks 21
Average processing rate 1,463.42 GFLOPS

Everything seems quite stabilized now. there was a little hiccup about an hour ago but i just had to kick the Update button on a few machines. no biggie.

Thanks a zillion for the invaluable info... I'll be watching this address I did not know existed...
Thanks for the incredible response... :)

Trying to view my Error list results in minutes of spinning wheels and then this pops up;

Error tasks for computer 6813106
Database Error
Database Error
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /disks/carolyn/b/home/boincadm/projects/sah/html/inc/result.inc on line 757 Database Error
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /disks/carolyn/b/home/boincadm/projects/sah/html/inc/result.inc on line 766
No tasks to display

Should we be concerned?

This is rising again, Replica seconds behind master: 2,728

I didn't get any errors when I looked up my stats, but my list is probably alot shorter. The errors do sound scary.

The replica is falling behind, but the assimilation number is being worked on... it is now down to 1.4 million, when it was over 2 million yesterday. I think the system can't do it all well at the same time, so it is focused on assimilation at the moment, so replica lag and increase in db purging numbers happen. Hopefully the system will turn to focus lag and db purging in a bit.

I just noticed something interesting when looking at my tasks page...

I have 200 in progress instead of 100. CPU-only machine.

Not complaining.. just interesting that the task limit got doubled since last I knew.

The whole story thus far, https://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=84932&sort_style=6&start=0. ;-)

Cheers.

Scheduler starting to supply less tasks than reported, and got a couple of "Project has no tasks available" responses as well (Edit- make that 4 in a row, so far).
Must be heading in to the weekend.

The servers know it's friday and we have a holiday ahead. LOL

Yes everything seems slow now.

Greetings,

And the server says?!:

Results ready to send	0	0	571,913	16m

And yet my Event log says:

It is most definitely Friday, going into a weekend and another holiday week. :|

Have a great day and a Happy New Year! :)

Looks like this is a common issue... also getting no tasks available yet with 763K in the RTS queue and the replica was only 46 seconds out from the master when I checked. As well the scheduler is very slow to respond and also throwing HTTP errors unless I enable NNT and/or set max_tasks_reported to 125 or less in cc_config.

So other than the scheduler version showing as 709, it's just what was happening before the restoration. Is someone messing with the codebase again? Sigh.

Edit: To confirm there are still issues, I tried to view Invalids only both for my entire account and host 8873220 and got:

Database Error
Database Error

This was at approx. 09h50 PST, 17h50 UTC.

Well it is getting close to end of year, were funds left that needed to be spent?</cynic>

Somebody noticed because while it took its own sweet time, I just got a display of the 3 invalids I currently have listed.

Back to the issue that one can't view any tasks on the host because the page never populates. Replica is caught up too.

Seti@Home classic workunits:20,676 CPU time:74,226 hours

A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association)

And with the Workunits-waiting-for-validation backlog finally clearing (a peak of almost 11 milion, now down to 8.3 million), and the Workunits-waiting-for-assimilation starting to catch up as well (from 2.5 million down to 1 million (things working normally value being 0)), that's leading to a backlog in Workunit-files-waiting-for-deletion (from 0 to over 1 million & climbing (things working normally being 0)).
And they can't be purged, until they are deleted.

And since the db purge & some of the file deleters run on Bruno, which is the upload server, it would be nice if we could get the new hardware running here on main to help things along.
Something for the new year's wish list.

But it seems as if the new SSD upload server that was tested on Beta failed (file system error) last Friday, according to Eric's post.
It didn't last long even on the low production Beta project. So any hope of that one coming to Main in the near future isn't high.
https://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=84968&postid=2023883#2023883

Fingers crossed it was just a software issue, not hardware.


Speaking of issues, we're back to getting nothing but "Project has no tasks available" messages, again.

No such problems here, but then I do not ask for many tasks, and not very often either.

It just started happening an hour or two ago. You probably would see it next time it tries to fetch work. :-(

And now picking up work again. Posting about a problem often sorts it out.
Till the next time.
