1) Message boards : News : Out of work (Message 6654) Posted 21 Jul 2015 by BarryAZ Post: I believe Teemu is dependent on the folks on distributed net -- and they have not released any updated information in 10 days...
2) Message boards : News : Server updates (Message 6114) Posted 28 Aug 2014 by BarryAZ Post: Looks like the move was not quite as clean as one would hope. data-driven web pages bcserv02 Running upload/download server bcserv02 Running distributed.net proxy bcserv02 Running scheduler bcserv02 Running feeder bcserv02 Running transitioner bcserv02 Running workgen_tiny bcserv02 Disabled workgen_small bcserv02 Disabled workgen_normal bcserv02 Running workgen_huge bcserv02 Disabled validator bcserv02 Disabled dnetc_assimilator bcserv02 Disabled file_deleter bcserv02 Disabled db_purge bcserv02 Disabled Here's hoping things settle out over the next couple of days.
3) Message boards : News : Server updates (Message 6089) Posted 16 Aug 2014 by BarryAZ Post: Looks like since you came back online that uploads and downloads are processing fine but credit is frozen.
4) Message boards : Number crunching : Transitioner problem resurfaced (Message 5863) Posted 27 Jan 2014 by BarryAZ Post: Thanks Teemu for getting things fixed up so quickly.
5) Message boards : Number crunching : Transitioner problem resurfaced (Message 5859) Posted 26 Jan 2014 by BarryAZ Post: As it is the weekend, I've a suspicion we won't see any correction until Monday at best.
6) Message boards : Number crunching : Transitioner problem resurfaced (Message 5858) Posted 26 Jan 2014 by BarryAZ Post: Looks like the transitioner is stalled starting about 2 hours ago. Not sure it is the transitioner -- but completed work waiting for validation started piling up two hours ago with no progress toward validation.
7) Message boards : Number crunching : Database can't be opened (Message 5774) Posted 26 Dec 2013 by BarryAZ Post: Problem surfaced in the past few hours: 12/26/2013 9:22:14 AM Moo! Wrapper Message from server: Server can't open database
8) Message boards : Number crunching : Transitioner problem resurfaced (Message 5509) Posted 7 Oct 2013 by BarryAZ Post: Validator stalled -- notice a start/restart of server processes -- but it didn't resolve a validator stall -- since earlier this evening.
9) Message boards : Number crunching : Transitioner problem resurfaced (Message 5157) Posted 4 Jul 2013 by BarryAZ Post: Started again overnight. All completed work going into 'validation pending' hell. I've got 200+ in that status and have temporarily suspended Moo and pushed over to Collatz, Milkyway and POEM pending resolution. Though of course prior to resolution, recognition of the issue is required....
10) Message boards : News : Transitioner problem solved (Message 5156) Posted 4 Jul 2013 by BarryAZ Post: Looks like the problem has resurfaced -- awaiting validation are climbing again
11) Message boards : News : Transitioner problem solved (Message 4950) Posted 23 May 2013 by BarryAZ Post: The backlog has been cleared -- excellent.
12) Message boards : News : Transitioner problem solved (Message 4945) Posted 23 May 2013 by BarryAZ Post: The pendings appear to be dropping -- but VERY slowly. I suspect there is another (or a related) issue here. Perhaps it is a function of having so very many backlogged units to process. Perhaps there is either some disk churning going on here or simply a lack of memory to process things efficiently. Just guessing here --- but it has been a good five hours and the progress seems to be glacial. I suspended processing on all but one workstation (couldn't get to it), as reporting additional completed work units is not likely to help matters.
13) Message boards : News : Transitioner problem solved (Message 4944) Posted 22 May 2013 by BarryAZ Post: OK -- thanks for the report back. For what it is worth, it has been about an hour since you reported that you'd identified the issue and resolved it and I've not yet seen any movement in my credits -- I have 220 Pending work units (I didn't check to see if that number was higher last night). But my credit count remains where it was last night.
14) Message boards : Number crunching : Validator is not validating (Message 4941) Posted 22 May 2013 by BarryAZ Post: Yup -- I saw that -- I reported the problem when I saw it yesterday via 'back channel' -- I saw various efforts server restarts and the like during last evening with out success -- I figure this may take a while to resolve. In the meantime I'm processing Collatz (which has had its one problems this week but is currently running) and Milkyway (on those workstations where my AMD driver,AMD GPU and BOINC version permit). Hopefully this will be resolved within the next day. I realize that both Moo and Collatz are 'one person shops' -- and so I figure patience should be in our personal inventory.
15) Message boards : Number crunching : Validator is not validating (Message 4935) Posted 22 May 2013 by BarryAZ Post: Over the past 4 or 5 hours
16) Message boards : Number crunching : OK -- that's twice now (Message 4883) Posted 14 May 2013 by BarryAZ Post: It isn't that the volume has pushed the servers offline -- rather that it appears to be more like traffic congestion -- my reports eventually went through on the fourth of fifth try. I figure to back off of Moo for a bit until the peak volume abates.
17) Message boards : Number crunching : OK -- that's twice now (Message 4881) Posted 14 May 2013 by BarryAZ Post: Looks like the effort to get more activity and users has the unintended consequence of overloading the software or the hardware. Reporting work is problematic due to : can't open database.
18) Message boards : Number crunching : OK -- that's twice now (Message 4669) Posted 18 Mar 2013 by BarryAZ Post: As to redirecting to other GPU projects -- perhaps our quiet admin agrees. That would explain the current lack of new work units. Then again, this is speculation as there is limited news about status here generally.
19) Message boards : Number crunching : OK -- that's twice now (Message 4624) Posted 5 Mar 2013 by BarryAZ Post: Yeah, I get it -- I realize that two months ago there was server code updating going on -- but no feedback since then. As we had another 'event' today, I suppose I'll set up for No New Work and then go into watch/wait mode here. Those periodic unexplained outages are back. Sorry but no blaming me this time, I have moved my gpu's elsewhere.
