Seti is down again

[Raistmer]

Let's see if we can get the bugs out of this one before they move on to the v6.13.xx line  

Hehe, yeah, bug-hunting always behind feature implementing. It's common problem, Windows itself is ill with the same disease.

LoL, it works ~ in same extent as user-configurable project shares in all prev builds before "backup project" was implemented properly. In short, it almost doesn't work.

No, for CUDA tasks it doesn't work - at all. It's a bug. I think the TSI test slipped out of (that bit of) the code along the way.

Oh dear, website is unreachable, scheduler requests fail, and cricket graph has taken a dive,

But uploads are still working

(for the time being, touch wood.)

Yup.......
Looks like jocelyn got tangled up again.

Unable to connect to database - please try again laterError: 1040Too many connections

Jocelyn is disabled. I can still get to the server status page but that's about it. Looks like uploads are getting through but not reporting. Oh well !

I think.
The message is clear, overload!

[perryjay]

The scheduling server, (Bane) is now showing as disabled too. Guess somebody is doing something. Hopefully they will get us going again before too long.   http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/sah_status.html

Looks like somebody might have their fingers on the buttons.......
Almost everything is down now.

Last time jocelyn crashed, it took the better part of a day to resynch the drive tables though.

Depends on just what happened, I guess.

[msattler]

Forums just came back up......hope that's a good sign.

[perryjay]

And we're down again. Wonder how long this time?

[msattler]

Well.....one thing or another lately.

Apparently it was thumper that messed things up this time.
And it looks like we are down until tomorrow morning.

See ya then......

Meow meow.

[perryjay]

Thumper huh?  Silly rabbit!!

Well, I've got plenty of work to keep me busy but I sure do miss the forums.

[msattler]

I just shut the Frozen 920 down.....ran itself dry.
I have varying amounts of work left on most of the rigs.
Should keep things warm enough until tomorrow.

Nearly out of work here too. One ran out of work yesterday, and this one is only still going because it has 2 AP units that it is crunching.

My team - GPU Users group - has offered a brand new server board with a couple of Xeon processors. We would purchase a rackmount case for it, and the RAM, leaving Seti to fit it with the HDD's. Depending on the spec required, there may be some drives in it for them too. This is on top of the 2 ordered servers that Mark drove the fund raisers for. (And I did make a donation to that as well). It wouldn't be as powerful as the ordered ones, but would make a good second line machine. Apart from the CPU's, this will be all brand new kit.

Unfortunately, despite repeated emails, we have had no response from the top brass at Seti. Trying to help with the current woes, but seemingly unable to.

Sometimes it makes it so hard to keep the faith.
