ditto, all three puters have transfered everything needed to "Appear" normal.

THey can take the system back down now and fix the remaining issue. (waiting for the screaming,,,,covering my ears....LOL)

Hello,

I lost results during the long outage. I know that I lost these results, because they were the fourth results of already validated WUs and are not needed anymore in scientific terms.

But why do you ignore these not needed but valid results?



Kind regards,
Carsten

Ordinarily, there is no penalty involved with being the fourth result in a work unit. As long as they come in before their deadline they get credit regardless whether the WU validated on three results or not.

The problem his time was the reason for the long outage was the need to purge the file system of the antique results which had accumulated, and an unfortunate side effect was that some slower returning "fourths" got hung out to dry so to speak during the validation/purging process. However, this was preferable to the quick and dirty approach which would have been to merely delete everything and start from scratch.

Hmm, no problems on D/L or U/L. Maybe because I just let it do it's own thing instead of hammering the Update button.
