Number crunching :
Half of the tasks get "Completed, validation inconclusive", what does that mean?

What does that mean? Was the time wasted crunching these? greetings |

I don't know where I read it (probably on this forum), but the validation inconclusive status is part of how the project works : - when you return your WU, the validator expect results to be withing a given range, based on the previous computation done on your run - if you result is within the range, it will be validated immediately - if it is outside the range, it will be marked as validation inconclusive and sent to another cruncher to validate the status - if both results matches, they will be validated and run continues - is results disagree, on more issue of the WU will be send to a third cruncher for validation The process keeps going until enough results match to validate (and the WU gets validated), or until the maximum number of replications has been reached (this case leads to an invalid WU). |
