I have completed two wah2 tasks but the results are not uploaded. Why?


Just looked as I am sure you have all 13 zips seem to have uploaded OK. Are they still showing as present on your computer or does that show them as gone from the manager? If a problem with more than just batch 801 I am sure it will not be long till others report and we will have a bit more information to go on.

They are still present as uploading.Trickles ended on April 2.

When running UNIX Version 5 on an Onyx Computer in the years 1980-85 we made incremental backups every week because Winchester disks were very fragile. We made backups on tape with the "dump" and "restore" commands from Berkeley UNIX. All this is just history.

My newest PC, a HP Omen, has a 128 GB SSD and a 1 TB hard disk.The SSD is not a 2.5" disk like a laptop but a flash memory bolted to the main board.

I have been running eight wah2 tasks on my new Windows 10 PC with a Ryzen 5 1400 CPU. Of these 7 have failed but 5 have given me credits all the same.I am running the eighth.

I wanted to take a MIT/Sloan course on Artificial intellgence but it costs 2600 dollars. A fairly equivalent course from Berkeley costs 357 dollars. All FutureLearn courses from Open University cost about 70 euros if you want to take the tests and receive a diploma, otherwise they are free.

I am running also SETI@home, Einstein@home, LHC@home. Nobody doubts about the validity of those. I could be watching "Game of thrones" on my TV set, which works as a monitor.

Italian paper "La Repubblica" says that the new data center of ECMWF could be placed in Italy, according to its director Florence Rabier in an interview.
The location is Tecnopolo in Bologna, which already hosts Cineca, the main Italian computing center.The computer should be a Cray but no details are given.

About 21 hours on my Windows 10 PC with A10-6700 CPU which AMD says has four cores but the Windows Task Manager says it has 2 cores and 4 logical processors, so it runs only 2 BOINC tasks at the same time, plus a GPU task, either Einstein@home or SETI@home.Speedup of GPU tasks is impressive.

I see no reason to exclude GPU work. I am using it both on SETI@home and Einstein@home. None of my six other projects uses GPU, only Virtual Box.

My Windows 10 PC just rebooted after an update without any warning message. But I had only SETI@home and vLHC@home tasks on it, so no damage was done. I am running CPDN tasks only on my old Linux box, a SUN workstation of 2008 vintage, when they are available. Now it is running Einstein@home, both CPU and GPU tasks. I have installed on it a ATI/AMD HD 7770 GPU board and it works fine. The Windows 10 PC has a nVidia GTX 750 OC and it runs SETI@home GPU tasks.

Got a task on my 64-bit SuSE Linux 13.2 and it runs OK. The last 2 tasks ended with a compute error after quite a while.

1 PNW task crashed on my Linux box after 433.35052 hours when at 99% but gave me 13k credits. I had to reboot the SUN WS with Opteron 1210, 8 GB RAM, SuSE Leap 42.1 64 bit when it was running also SETI Beta GPU tasks on a AMD/ATI HD 7770 GPU board. Maybe one of them crashed and the CPDN task did not survive the reboot.
