Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

Only the newly issued workunits ending with 0 are getting validated, while the ones that were resent after previous errors — those ending with 2 through 4 — remain stuck in pending validation status.

I think that's expected behaviour at the moment. See the 2025-10-28 Operational Status report, which someone copied into this thread recently, and note the item starting "Regarding uploads that span the downtime for migration"...

Cheers - Al.

Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

Re extremely large estimated run times (and, possibly, extreme credit requests)...

I've had a look at the new WUs and their parameter files are very similar to those of the retries we're currently seeing -- unsurprisingly, they also take about the same amount of time to run!

However, they are being sent out with an estimated floating point operations figure that is nearly 3 times as high as that associated with the retry tasks, with the expected effect on estimated run-time calculations. And, as far as I can tell, that same very high FPOPs estimate was also used for all the test work units. Given the vast variations in run times of those tasks, I suspect that won't have helped the Claimed Credit calculations :-(

These new tasks really shouldn't have such a high estimated FPOPs figure, but if/when it gets sorted out there may well be a situation where the estimates are so much lower that claimed credit may drop a long way until things re-stabilize!

Cheers - Al.

This machine will not download WUs. My other machines are receiving WUs. I have tried to reset the project.


Had to uninstall and reinstall to get WUs on this machine.

Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

My overview page is now saying “Last updated: Oct. 28, 2025 - 23:59 UTC”.
No idea whether the actual stats shown on the overview page have changed, as I haven’t looked at it for ages.
Cheers,
Mark

Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

What a good observation, Mark! Now it says "Last updated: Oct. 29, 2025 - 12:06 UTC” and the graph is showing an uptick on Oct 29 after a long flatliner (31 Aug - 28 Oct). After a runtime of 0 days yesterday it is now showing 16.855 days for me on Oct 29. The API also reports that my total runtime has increased by 16 days, 20 hours, 30 minutes and 45 seconds.

Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

The Statistics history pages for projects have also been updated by the noon-time stats run, not that they have much to report...

However, the three ARP1 pages on the download server still seem to be behind an ACL (not that they'd contain anything new at present...)

Cheers - Al.

Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

Well, at least we're up and running (ish), but it's still a long long way before everything can be said to be fully operational and OK.
At least new tasks are sent out, crunched, uploaded, reported, and validated with credit.

Not all test tasks have been validated and given credit though, and no tasks from before the "migration", are validated yet. But that will happen later on, if I interpret the posts from the team, on the Operational Status page right.

But there's no hurry, as far as I'm concerned. smile

Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

Something we saw several times before the "migration", is back
BOINC problem:
Server can't open database
Project requested delay of 3600 seconds

Yup, same here. Have a few more WUs to crunch before the first ones start running dry...

Re: Project Status (First Post Updated)

I noticed that too.
While I was troubleshooting a new system that was not using all the available cores,

I also noticed (before the system database problem showed up) that the device assignments did not seem to be propagating to my new system - It was still functional as DEFAULT even though it APPEARED to be defined as SCHOOL
The new system is 8 core and was only using 3 (default config)

When I went to attempt to set that system's profile, it did not respond as expected when I clicked on SAVE - it eventually came back and said that the system was doing other things for the next 77 minutes.

HOPEFULLY this is just a new, normal, temporary problem and when the current processing finishes its run, things will return to normal -
otherwise,
will require human intervention.
