I did poke around in the faq and message board and did not find the answer I am seeking. It\'s a really simple question so I must have missed the answer.

If I suspend BOINC/Climate Prediction Model then then resume it later why do I get a second work instance at 0% that superceeds by original model? Why does it downloaded a second model to start? Why does it not resume my first model?

I have been aborting the new instance and resuming the original instance. Will my results be useful and valid? My progress and credit continue to increase when I resume the original model.

I answered this on your post on the BOINC boards.


Use the Suspend in the menu, NOT the one in the Work tab. When you use this one, BOINC sees that the science app is out of work and gets more. Which is what it\'s supposed to do. The menu Suspend on the other hand suspends the model AND BOINC.


The only results that will be usefull are the ones that you allow to continue to run.
