Seti is down again

[Richard Haselgrove]

so the servers will be back on line FRIDAY!!!

It depends what time-zone you're in, and what your operational hours are. Here in the UK, I'm expecting them to be available for six hours on Thursday evening - and since I crunch at home, that'll be useful. If I crunched in an office, it would indeed be Friday morning before I saw them online - but that would be because of my timetable, not theirs.

Most Americans will see them online by lunchtime Thursday, subject to Murphy's Law.

Here on the US East Coast we are three hours ahead of Berkeley so we will be looking for SETI to come back online sometime after 1400 (2PM) tomorrow afternoon.

I'm out of CPU work already but should have enough GPU work to last me through tonight if I'm lucky. Don't think I will make it all the way to tomorrow afternoon though. Oh well, my poor little computer needs a rest anyway.

I still have enough of my cache left to last three more days on the main rig (I ask for a 10-day cache, but it was sitting on about 5-6 at the time).  Single-core MB-only machine has about 24 hours left (2.5-day cache).  Before it went down, I needed ~1.6M seconds of work to top the main off, but AP was in short supply, so I didn't get all that I needed.  I'll be alright.

My guess from reading between the lines of the various official statements is that the forecast time for full power restoration is before 8 am Berkeley time. I think just possibly with good luck the project may be up before 17:00 UTC (10 am Berkeley time).

That 'll be  19:00 h., in the Netherlands (UTC+2), I do hope .

[msattler]

And we are back online!!!
Hope the servers can handle the ruckus.

Full meow ahead!

As of  13:50 or 11:50 UTC,  SETI  appears to be down

As of  13:50 or 11:50 UTC,  SETI  appears to be down   

The SETI project went offline round about then, but within the last 30 minutes the last remaining data traffic on Cricket has disappeared, and the BOINC domain has gone down as well. That's more like the signs we were getting during the power outages.....

Going off to watch the footie instead.

Going off to watch the footie instead. 

Go England

EDIT: 3 secs later England scores!

[msattler]

Got word that it is indeed another power outage.
Duration and cause unknown at present.

[msattler]

Apparently, the outage is limited to the building the Seti lab is in, and not directly related to the high voltage lines that shorted previously.

[Fredericx51]

But it's up again, I just checked 

[msattler]

Seti website has crashed......no connect.
The forums were getting really, really laggy.  And now nothing.
I sent Eric an email shortly before the crash, don't know if he will receive it.

So far, the Cricket graphs seem unaffected.

And 10 minutes later, back up.......but still hanging badly......painfully so.

[msattler]

Eric says it was a freaking spider scan trussing up thingys.
Should have it blocked now.

I already received 55 work units an no problem at the moment with updates either uploads ;-)
