Re: Starting to get 'Invalids'

Scribe, the other thread on "single redundancy" reports 1. Please tag on there, at least read. It's probably a point 4 condition where something is not right, but we need to get the back up copy to come back to see how the credits work out AND OR, if those go too bleary eyed, at which time the batch may need checking.

Anyway, my last few validated needing no second copy.

Will ask the techs, but half is on vacation this week, for a change.

Re: Starting to get 'Invalids'

The other thread was started before we changed so I thought it better to start a new one dealing specifically with @Invalids'. Having read the thread the Point 4 does not mention anything about 'invalid', so again I think a specific thread is required.... wink

Re: Starting to get 'Invalids'

Makes sense to cross reference if you do that next time, so we know we know you saw it. Helps me to help you and stops me from wasting time (very fat wink )

[Added: mreuter80 did find a piece of text in another post of knreed that was not integrated into the 4 point rule clarification. Anyway, it suggests that the mini wu test failed.... verbatim:
"When a single redundancy result is returned, the mini workunit needs to match up with the value computed during the beta test (otherwise the result is marked invalid and the workunit is sent to someone else)."

The second copy, once validated, forms the logical base for awarding 50% credited for an invalid result. We'll hear if that does not happen I'm sure.

Re: Starting to get 'Invalids'

Hi Sekerob,
the status became now "valid"

dddt0602j0578_ 100507_ 1-- Valid 08/12/2008 01:38:57 08/12/2008 22:59:22 12.09 96.3 / 99.6
dddt0602j0578_ 100507_ 0-- Valid 08/09/2008 14:21:02 08/12/2008 00:44:17 8.04 103.0 / 99.6

it seems the 2nd calculation confirmed the 1st answer and overruled the mini WU's result.

Re: Starting to get 'Invalids'

...mine were the same! The other result had higher claims than me, so I was granted higher points....maybe they should look at the mini calculations again?

Re: Starting to get 'Invalids'

Good to know that the "Result" was confirmed. The design seems to work and everyone is appy, but will check on the explicitness of the mini test i.e. if it IS a requirement to pass that test. Thinking about it, if the real result is computed correctly and confirmed in quorum 2 as in the old methodology, I think things to be A OK.

thanks for reporting and confirming.
