Dataman,

I knew someone was going to say that, that's why I edited the post.
Could you try doing it after the update, it might(more than likely) be just me!

Pete, I think you'll see a different error during the stats update. Actually, you won't be able to even get into Results Status itself during that time. You'd have to be trying with a bookmark. Outside the stats update, I believe I've seen that error on an entirely different query - I'm pulling the Team's member detail for the entire team. Normally, it's right after the stats update finishes that it seems to happen so it could be load related. It may be a factor of the amount of data to retrieve from the database too, especially if you have lots of devices. As for the query itself, I do that sort of thing all the time (outside the stats update of course) with no problem. Is this intermittent for you or every time? Do you see the same thing filtering for individual devices? How many devices does all encompass? When it fails with that error, does it work if you retry?

But petehardy, we CA's will still mention things even if you know it, for other readers, less experienced, might learn a thing or to 2 from any present discussion.

Just for posterity, if you were logged in and at the RS pages prior to the real stats update you would get the "app not avialable" response.

Looking at the OP post time stamp, when logged in, WCG was just minutes into the actual lock out start for the nightlly update.

There is some post processing running even when My Grid + Global Stats pages are made accessible again (at least it seems to trundle along for a wee longer from where I sit).

knreed explained that accessing the RS pages is direct, real-time read-only accessing. If things in the scheduler are very busy, I'd imagine and occasionally do see some jerkyness.

When the host-centre transfer, new servers and db version upgrade and the amputation of the UD parts are complete we should see marked improvement on many fronts.

A number of functionality enhancements have been requested in public and back room to include the ability to get the whole RS page set in one fell swoop onto screen, for those who like to analyze it in a spreadsheet e.g.

a short summary

And again, it's stats time. :+)

Coincidence?

Yes, we would like better availability during stats updates. And now UD is gone, hopefully the techs will be able to improve this further.
