Seti is down again

[msattler]

Tomorrow morning they should start getting the project up then.

More news:

Eric, Matt and Jeff are all meeting at the lab at 7am tomorrow morning to power everything back on.

(that'll be 14:00 UTC)  How long it all takes will depend on what collateral damage they find when they start work on it, but I suspect an emergency beer shipment around lunchtime would be appreciated.

And what a motley looking crew that would be at that time of the morning in Berkeley, eh?
LOL.

What you are seeing there Mike is bits per second instead of Mbits, if you go out to weekly it is barren.

OOoops, it was 6 AM so i probably wasn´t awake.

I was beginning to think it was time to get backup projects rolling.  I'm getting mighty low on work.  With the glut that is sure to occur the second the servers are back on it might not be a bad idea to get some backups rolling anyway

[perryjay]

Well, it's 7AM. Wonder which one overslept and isn't there yet?

[msattler]

Upload traffic has commenced.
Let's hope there's not too much trouble bringing all the rest of it back up from cold iron.

Upload traffic has commenced.

Slow going through, Seti and Boinc websites are up now, but forums are down for maintenance,

This is the first Friday that Matt has worked in the SSL in how long?

[msattler]

Right now, both of my machines are configured to report 50 tasks at a time, that usually works just fine.

I kind of hope they turn on the upload server first and let us do a mass upload before they turn on the scheduler and finally the download servers.

Please refresh our memory.
If it is needed, what was that tweak again?

Just use the following in your cc_config.xml (for Jason's mod 6.10.58 and Boinc 6.12.x and later):

Code:

<cc_config>
   <log_flags>
   </log_flags>
   <options>
      <max_tasks_reported>50</max_tasks_reported>
   </options>
</cc_config>

Yup, had to go there.
Trying to report 1800 to 2400 tasks just resulted in HTTP internal server errors.
Set it at 100, and all 3 top rigs are now reporting their completed work in more manageable packets.
I'll just leave it in place and active....no reason not to.

looks like upload server is full or down.  time to move this thread back to the top where it is always!!!

It's baaaack! Things are going and coming as normal? .

Planned Power Outage
Repairs are necessary after the short circuit that caused power failures in several labs here on campus two weeks ago. These repairs require a planned power outage, which starts this afternoon (Tuesday 22:00 UTC). We'll be back on line Thursday morning (roughly Thursday 17:00 UTC). Our websites and data servers will be offline throughout this outage. 29 May 2012 | 17:11:12 UTC

[perryjay]

Thursday morning???   OUCH!!!

[msattler]

Owie.....
But thanks for the info, arkayn.
I had not seen that notice.
Better than if the servers had crashed, I guess.
