Just to be clear, if I do the reset now, it will kill all of the WU's that are currently downloaded, correct?

If so, I will use your first method. I have set it to no new tasks, and it should run through the remainders by tonight. I will try it then.

Thanks for the quick reply. I will post with news of success or failure.

So I checked later on in the night, and the faulty work unit was gone. However, the system appeared to be working with one less core than normal.

As I was still confused, I continued to let it finish the WU's that I had downloaded and reset the project. Everything seems fine now.


One other note: it looks like the machine went into hibernate right before the first WU got confused. That may be the root cause of the issue.

Could have been intermittent communications. There's allot of signaling going back and forth to make sure files and result reports get across to the project servers, then an (unrecorded, briefly visible) acknowledged and a clearing of the Ready to Report line. Best place to check is the Result Status page. Until the whole exercise is complete a task will continue to show "in progress". If it has another status, WCG is happy and has everything they want from you. Leaves a seeming bug that is not clearing out the RtR line. Let me ponder how/where to report this up.
