Great DB restore Travis. All my 1.8 million points are back and 168 tasks are current again. Phew! /wipes brow. Anyway, Good luck with the thesis defense. |

Great DB restore Travis. All my 1.8 million points are back and 168 tasks are current again. Whew, at least people didn't lose too much credit. We should be putting in an order for new equipment today, so as soon as that's in we'll be up and running again. Hopefully much faster than before :P |

Anyway, Good luck with the thesis defense. Yeah... All this couldn't have happened at a better time :( |

11/11/2009 5:06:38 a.m. Milkyway@home Reporting 24 completed tasks, requesting new tasks for GPU We won't be generating new workunits until we have working hard drives again. The ones running the forums are pretty crippled. If we started generating work again they'd most likely just crash. It'll probably be a couple days until we get the new hardware and have work flowing again. |

Okey then. Seems like a good time for me to try converting one of my boxes over to Linux. Don't feel too bad Travis, Cosmo's transitioner has been down over 27 hours now. May I suggest Monday as reboot day, so you can work on your defense and we know where we stand. Something tells me it won't be as simple as plugging in the new drives, loading software, and off we go again! JMHO. |

This may not be up to you at all, but I'm curious - are you using shock mounts for the HDDs? (something like this) Hope everything goes well with the new hardware. Is there any chance you might be virtualizing/distributing the workload across several servers in the future? (or is there simply no money for this?) |

Seems like a good product Emanuel. If you want some Travis I am happy to pay for them. PM me with a delivery address and quantity. Cheers David PS: Any chance of uploading completed WU's? |

Travis, Thanks for the restore Thanks for the communication Good luck with your thesis Somthing with 10% inspiration and 90% transpiration comes to mind... |

As far as I can see, and remember, the credit reported for me (account, etc) is about what I think it should be. But, as expected with this hard drive problem I am all out of work. Looks like Collatz and other GPU projects will be hit by host transferring until Travis tells us it's all up up and away again! Keep up the good work Travis and colleagues. Go away, I was asleep |

Was this caused by the server crash? Yes it was posted on the front page that ALL current work should be cancelled as it has been deleted from the database. Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected the expected? If it makes sense, DON'T do it. |

Thanks. Didn't see the updated front page. Those were all tasks downloaded earlier. |

Thanks for the updates ... There is that old item of wisdom ... things happen ... :) Disk drives are mechanical devices and vibration with shocks is not a good thing ... |

Yep, thanks for the briefing on the front page, this crash was handled very well indeed, and I'am not in hurry of new WU, just fix the server so it will last for some week until the new arrive. |

Oh well. Sh.. happens and we all get over it. Hope you are able to get the project going again soon. And great timing in regards to your thesis defense...bugger. Let's hope Collatz doesn't crash with all the extra crunchers over there! |

Let's hope Collatz doesn't crash with all the extra crunchers over there! It crossed my mind too... Did something like that not happen 2 weekends ago ? Makes you realize the kind of stress a strong cruncher community can induce on project servers... |

Let's hope Collatz doesn't crash with all the extra crunchers over there! Well don't blame me. Collatz won't let me attach, and doesn't appear to be accepting new users. Got Seti running on the Cudas, just need something for the ATI. |

F@H. :p Oh yeah. Already running. Forgot about that one hehehe. Seems to be averaging ~6 hours per WU atm. Up to 134 WU's done now. Last time I checked it was only 107. IIRC it was you that put me onto them in the first place. Thanks Cheers David |
