[Milkyway@home] Server Trouble

[BOINC_News]

Hey Everyone,

The server appears to be having some connectivity issues. Additionally, one of the drives on the server appears to have failed - luckily things are mirrored so we haven't lost any data. However, I need to make a backup of things, which could take several hours. Once everything is backed up I'll try to clear out this transitioner/validator backlog and get things up to speed again.

Best,
Tom

When the server came back up, all the new tasks resulted in computational errors after 2 seconds on my Radeon VII on linux. I shut it down for now.

Seems okay again to me.

Everything works ok when I use my primary boinc instance but when I use my secondary and tertiary boinc instances with spoofed coproc.xml files, I still get errors.

Normally I run MW on 2 separate boinc instances with 2 simultaneous tasks on each instance. The coproc is spoofed on each instance to get 600 tasks.

I didn't think a reboot would necessarily work but it did.
