NixChix,
Correct. Since this is a one off event, only the server will know of the increase. So results will not be counted too late if they were to hit that time during the servers actually being down. Thanks, -Uplinger |

More information about this error may be available in the server error log. I've been seeing this quite a bit over the last hour or two. Haven't seen it before but have seen the mentions of it in the forums. I'm also seeing some spotty access to various websites (may be the route the request takes to get there though) which coincides with the supposed global ransomware attacks going on. |

Question for Keith, Kevin or any of the admins: I haven't seen anything yet that mentions *when* on the 15th the move starts. If the plan is to allow the EOD stat processing for the 14th to complete, that would keep some things up until at least 02:00 UTC on the 15th. It would be nice to have an hour or so for those of us who need to to grab what data we need from those stats for the 14th.
----------------------------------------Also, I am still getting FAH2 wu's with deadlines now for the 16th. My understanding is that the in-process trickles getting returned out of order will cause the wu to get marked invalid. FAH2 (along with the much scarcer HSTB) is great for having enough work in my queue to avoid going idle during the outage but having those go invalid when WCG returns makes crunching them a bit pointless until the move completes. Is anything being done on WCG's end to address this until the move completes? While not for everyone, I suppose it would be possible to disable network communications right around when the move starts so that I could move the trickle files from the various slots directories and then move them back one by one in the correct order once the move is done to ensure they can be returned in the correct order. |

I seem to remember seeing a post saying it will happen right after mid-day stats run on the 15th.

WTC days are UTC days, therefore the mid-day stats start minutes after 12:00:00 UTC and last... I don't know precisely, I care about the night stats only.
---------------------------------------- If you consider being ready before 12:00:00 UTC on the 15th you should be safe. I let you apply your local UTC offset yourself, you certainly know it better than me. |

Thanks for the confirmation of the start time for the off-line period, JmB.
----------------------------------------Also note that the main daily stats runs are at midNIGHT UTC, not midDAY if I'm not mistaken. One urgent issue - the super-short FAAH 1 (VINA) work units, which run for only 2-3min on my machines: These are the ones that have names that do NOT include the sub-string "Rigid". *** I strongly suggest that no more of these short WUs be sent out until after the changeover *** and that any members with large numbers of them in their work caches as mid-day UTC approaches abort them in time to download longer WUs.
