Hello all,
We are excited to share that we have received and are in the process of downloading the data needed from the ARP team. Based on the current download rate, we anticipate that the download will be complete this weekend. Barring any unforeseen challenges, this means that we expect ARP1 will restart next week. We will continue to provide any updates that we can regarding the exact timeframe. |

Fantastic news, appreciate the update and work being done to get project going again.
----------------------------------------I would be interested to hear the amount of data being transferred and the speed it’s been transferred if this information is allowed to be known? At 10:58 PM Toronto time on Tuesday I was able to successfully download over 100 MCM tasks. I am unsure if the website was accessible at the time Look forward to your response and been able to process ARP again ![]() |

Hi Speedy51,
We have already downloaded about 500GB and still need to download another archive of about 5TB. |

@TigerLily:
Thank You for the latest updates! Why not send out some Beta wus before or during the weekend to test the infrastructure while no GPUs are running, better bandwith for testing? Use some old wus to confirm the "new" run. With regards, Hans S. |

Several thoughts crossed my mind last night as well as this morning.
![]() In order to prevent network congestion it would probably be best to set the maximum number of tasks for ARP1 to 1 before the project restarts, so that only 1 task is downloaded to your device at a time, when contacting the server. I had it set to 16. ![]() When ARP1 is running smoothly where uploading and downloading is concerned, the maximum number of tasks for ARP1 can be set to your preferred value in your Device Profile. I don't know for sure if the application program for ARP1 will change when the project restarts. (The application program's name starts with "wcgrid_arp1_wrf_7.32".) It probably doesn't, else it should and would have been announced. ![]() Like Hans Sveen mentioned, I was thinking of some BETA test with a batch of ARP1-workunits, just to see if the workflow works out good. And if it does, then give the real ARP1 the green light. Furthermore, when TigerLily mentioned the total amount to be downloaded of 5 TB and the intermediate amount of 500 GB, I thought to myself: that is exactly 1/10th of the total amount. So if you know how long it took to download 500 GB, you can make a careful estimate of the total amount of time needed for 5 TB. But we don't know how long it took. ![]() Adri |

But we don't know how long it took That would be interesting to know at what speed their connection had and how the protocols for data integrity were implemented. Depending the speed of the connection and the amount of data, sometimes it makes more sense just to ship a backup of the hard drive media and load the information directly from those drives. Just as long as it is done correctly is the important part. Cheers

Hi all,
We shared the estimate that the 5 TB would be downloaded by the end of the weekend based on the projected time it would take to download the 500 GB archive. Since it was projected to take ~7 hours to download the 500 GB archive, we predicted it would take ~3 days for 5 TB. The tech team has confirmed that the download completed over the weekend, totalling just over 78 hours. They will be able to update tomorrow on whether the contents of these archives are sufficient to restart. If so, they will begin testing tomorrow. |
