Severs down on a Monday?

Yeah I noticed my 8800 had been idle for a little hwile during lunch. Sadly my SMP was at 97%, if those servers are down too i'm pretty much shut down for production until they come back up.
 
SMP seem to be fine. The server down issue seems to be limited to GPU2. I think I've got 5 completed WU that are waiting to get sent up.

Don't know if anyone has ever experienced this, but there are only 10 Queue Slots. What happens when all of those slots are filled with completed WUs?

 
The standard clients have been experiencing intermittent problems throughout the day. It's not only GPU this time. :mad:

 
By the sounds of things they need to add a couple people to the servers at home development team. My GTX 260 is out to Step-Up, so I guess I can't complain about the GPUs.

I know literally jack shit about servers. Is there anything we can do to help PG get theirs going a bit [H]arder? I mean seriously, the community boxen program could probably help them somehow right?

All they really need is a crowbar and some vaseline to get their collective heads out of their ass. After this is done (easier said than done), they need to do some proper network planning or to hire a real sysadmin.


Even better, hire Kyle and his staff...

Well, I've offered to donate hardware before, but seeing how they acquired such a vast amount recently, and instead of bolstering their frail infrastructure where it's sorely needed, they deployed the resources to produce more work instead. So, even with a concerted effort across the top teams to donate equipment, how can we possibly trust Stanford to use it wisely??
 
aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh im going insane.. my gpu client just keeps doing the same WU project over and over and over and over and over... its driving me insane!!!!!!!!!!!

Seems we are pretty much dead in the water when we either can't get a WU, complete it because of EUE then finally can't turn in the work order if it does finish, LMAO. Those are just my observations.
 
Yeah man...., I certainly can sympathize (SP) with everybody having Stanford server problems today. (it ain't even the weekend, unless Stanford's extending the weekends to include Mondays :rolleyes:)

My little garden patch has had it's share of idle time also. I had a 8800GT and a 8800GS out lookin' for work for about 9 cycles, then I shut down and restarted for another 9 cycles :(. (somehow my 9600GSO just kept on keepin' on :confused:) But, as they say, "better late than never" (or something like that) I finally DL'ed WU's for the 8800's and the 9600GSO already had one so I'm "fat city". (no finger nails, less hair and an addiction to nerve pills, only kiddin' :D)

Folding and WCGing for the CURE

 
Don't get your hopes up guys even if you see your clients receive some work. I have backed up unsent WUs and some of my clients are idle presently. The problem isn't resolved by a long shot. Moreover, my sole Ati client continues to keep WUs in queue until they expire. That specific problem has been going on since I started the client about a month ago. Some of you are lucky to only have the problem concerning this thread, but with all of my issues combined including hung SMP clients and unstable GPU cores I'm estimating an average loss of nearly 5000PPD a day.

 
I'm having to wack a client every 1/2 hour or so to get it unstuck..... :mad:

 
I've shut the client down for the night. Gonna get some hardcore gaming in. Not sure how long it was idle for, but it's rather irritating due to it's at-least once a week occurrence .

I wish I could have used the down time to do some gaming. Unfortunately I have a lot of homework due tomorrow. So, my PC just sits there. Hopefully it will behave while I'm up in the library...


 
Wow usually the server issues (when they arent on a weekend) only last a short period of time. My GPU2 client has been stuck most of the day. And I have got a couple of the new 5800 WUs which are only about 50% successful. I completed one successfully but the rest have errored out. Maybe the OC is too high for those WUs.

I guess there is only one thing to do when fah is having server issues. Move that core over to the Grid!;)
