SETI - New Server Outage Schedule

(1/4) > >>

kevin6912:
Looks like some decisions were made. Next week would be 6/29/2010.

SETI home page quote:
"Starting next week our servers will be turned off for several days a week - initially, Tuesday through Thursday. This will allow us to devote more time to scientific development."

Regards,
Kevin

Frizz:
... plus the usual unscheduled outages from Friday to Monday  :-\

Wild6-NJ:
I guess keeping the work buffer maxxed-out should allow us to bridge the outages (scheduled and not). :(

"Starting next week ..."
I think they started a week early! ::)

This must be a good time for internal maintenance. For some time I've been unable to change SETI's priority on my PCs. I have a preference set in BOINCstats for the fraction I want SETI to process but that is not propagating to the PC's even via manual sync.

There are no local prefs set; I use only BOINC to set them. On SETI the setting was 25; now it is double hyphen (--) achieved by entering zero. But SETI was stuck at 95 on my pc's.

I have zero WU right now, let my cache empty to see if I could fix this. Can someone offer a hint where to look for the stuck bit?

Thanks
Art

BOINCstats/BAM! "Project resources" settings will work only for your new computers, attached through BAM!

To change SETI@home fraction setting for your already connected to BAM! computer, you need to enter into "Host list" and set required value there and sync.
