Seti is down again

[PatrickV2]

SETI/SETI beta/Einstein/MW here.
Also Aqua and Yoyo for idle CUDA GPU sometimes.

Thanks both, I added Einstein@Home yesterday-evening at a workload of '10' (Seti has 100). I immediately got some work from Einstein@Home, so the machine is now happily crunching away again...

Let's hope the Seti@Home folks get some work ready to shove out of the door soon...

Regards,

Patrick.

It's all my fault

I was sitting looking at a screen saying 9,999,821 credits, and I pressed 'update' just one more time.......

Now the whole database has fallen over.

Get a life, Richard, get a life!

that is why i cache 10 day work ahead

that is why i cache 10 day work ahead 

It's ironic.. a couple weeks ago when it was mentioned that Arecibo would go silent until November, there was plenty of work available and the bandwidth was around 60mbit, so I changed from the 4-day cache I have always had over to a 10-day, just to be safe.

Then Matt made significant progress with the software blanker, and I reverted.  Finally caught up and started requesting work again yesterday.. and now broken.

For the record Richard.. I am holding you responsible. :p

Splitter status on Server status page shows all tapes err out, strange as no splitters are working. Wondering how major this crash is.

Anyway, good luck to the crew to get things working again.

[Fredericx51]

Still no sign of activity, yet. Lucky got still some work from yesterdays flow of WU's

Hope the 'crew',  gets it runing again. No trouble uploading, though.

Project announcement:

"Our database machine crashed. I can't get in to campus. Matt's nowhere to be found. Jeff's in Nepal. Dan's in South Africa. Please spread the word that we know that there's a problem."

What did you do this time Richard?

[Richard Haselgrove]

What did you do this time Richard?

Moi? Me, I know nuffink'  . Never touched it, squire.

I'm busy trashing CPDN Beta tasks - every time I download one, BOINC creates 56 more.

Come to think of it, if that's a new server code bug, it would cripple SETI's database pretty effectively. And they updated the server code with the new task list format just before it started crashing ......

trying to deflect blame onto DA again?

[Richard Haselgrove]

If the cap fits. You got a better idea?

[Jason G]

Well you two could be in cahoots, in some conspiracy ... plausible? I think so!   

[Richard Haselgrove]

You mean my fiendish plot to reach 10,000,000 credits and then lock everyone else out? . Rats, found out again.
