Seti is down again

[msattler]

And...........we're baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!!

Meow!

[msattler]

Oh, sigh.........

Anybody know what's up with the Seti servers this time?

Uploads and reporting completed work seem to be online, but no downloads or webpages.

Hmmmmm...

[msattler]

Forums are back....still no downloads, even though the status page is updating and showing nothing odd.
'Nuther network oddity?

The grapevine says 'Gowron failed a drive and is hung. It will probably be 3-4 days to re-sync the RAID array, so no work until then.'

[Miep]

I woudn't say it's actually down, but when I try to read a forum thread I get a nice page that is empty after the thread title Oh and the (mod) buttons.  and you can still post to a thread, and then you see the posts you are replying to

OK......
Glad to know it's not just me.....hope it's nothing too serious.

That happened a couple of weeks ago.

Looks like SETI beta validators are offline. Any news on this?

Posted by Eric himself on this very board:
http://lunatics.kwsn.net/4-linux/setihome-v7-r1000-vs-r1018.msg38863.html#msg38863

Sorry, that's in the restricted development area, but to summarise for the general readership -

Eric, with the help of Joe Segur and Urs Echternacht of this parish, has been working on making the Beta/V7 apps take advantage of the new Sandybridge/AVX technology. There were bugs in the first attempt (unsurprising - that's computer programming for you). So the early test results returned by the AVX test hosts will be bound to fail validation. Eric thinks that the bug is now fixed, but it's now the weekend. He wants to catch his breath, get the AVX app sorted out and deployed on Monday, and deal in a considerate way with the test hosts/users which returned invalid results through no fault of their own.

Four workunits wasted:

Edit: Well, from invalids, they validated

Is it just me or is the whole campus down? All of a sudden I can't reach the message boards or the cricket graph. Very strange.

[sunu]

Website is reachable. Uploads stopped around 7:00 UTC.

[perryjay]

Okay, whatever it was is gone now. I'm used to the message boards going down now and then but it worried me when the cricket graph was out too. Everything seems to be working again now.

[Mike]

Downloads still worked.
I didnīt notice my host reported at 11:39 AM UTC.
But validators are off also.

No download works for me since a day, a lot of starting downloads hunging aroun and no progress since 12 hours.
Although the Graphs for gigabitethernet2_3 shows 95%
