To those interested in the ARP1 status text files...

In an earlier post I said I'd taken a snapshot and would try to spot any changes... Well, a snapshot taken at about 00:15 UTC on 18th July had different numbers so the relevant script(s) seem to still run -- sorry, entity :-)

In summary, the following unit generation transitions appear to have taken place in the interval between the snapshots (one at about 17:45 UTC on 16th, the other 30.5 hours later:

     1 unit  from 110 to 111
     1 unit  from 111 to 112
     1 unit  from 118 to 119
     3 units from 124 to 125
    29 units from 125 to 126
     5 units from 126 to 127
     1 unit  from 127 to 128

The numbers make sense as it seems the majority of tasks sent out were for generation 125, and only a limited proportion of them will have had two successful results returned to date (I have one out of 8 validated so far...)

I haven't yet established when the files get updated, so I have no idea how out of step the above might be because of my sample times -- I'll try to collect more samples to find out (unless someone who reads this knows when the script was supposed to run...) So I think the above only reflects one only day's information, but can't be sure.

I wonder how long it will take Robert Coplin's generation 11 work unit to get validated :-)

Cheers - Al.

P.S. I might have a look at automating the analysis I did above (which used downloads, UNIX diff and the Mark One Eyeball!) but not at present...

My 011 work unit has already been validated on July 17 at 19:10 UTC as that was one of my wingman returned in their work unit

Al,
Many thanks for doing this.
Knreed said that the scripts were designed to run once a day at 12:05 UTC. See his posts on this page.
Cheers,
Mark

With max_generation = 120, my device received a couple of Extreme tasks:

On the subject of Extreme work units (as per Adri's post above, for which thanks...)

I've currently got ARP1_0033553_111_2 which was issued around 12:30 UTC today (so no replies at the time of writing!)

I also returned a generation 109 task that got off to a worrying start but eventually validated:

workunit 152523528 -- snapshot below taken at 19:50 UTC on 18th July; the _4 task was mine.

This one only accumulated two non-success outcomes, but I wonder how many other "Extreme" WUs might hit a higher number of non-success results for one reason or another during this partial restart and end up stalled again - only time will tell...

Cheers - Al.
