I\'ve recently finished my first WU and the server says there\'s work but I don\'t have enough disk space. The Disk tab shows that climateprediction.net is still using 411.27MB of space even though me first WU is done. It seems the software doesn\'t clean up when done.

Is it safe to just go manually delete the leftover files? Will the server give me more work if I do?
I don\'t want to increase the size defined in my configuration for fear that BOINC may send my dual processor system 2 work units...I only want one.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

If you want to go sure. Detach and then attach to the project. bUt if you do so you have to download the CPDN client once more. But you can also try it manually, but this is risky!

the leftover files are using your box as a storage area you need to keep those files on your HD or burn them to CD, this is so the powers can look at them later.

Hi apisguy,

Tracing through to the workunit from your stats, you'll find the zipped results stored in the directory boinc/projects/climateprediction.net/01vw_100027429. If you can spare the disk space just moving that directory to somewhere outside the BOINC structure will be enough.

If you don't have the space it's best if you can do a backup of the directory as Pascal suggested. If that's not possible just delete it (and if the project team want to investigate any of the data that isn't returned sometime in the future the model will have to be re-run).

Thanks for the suggestions.
After archiving the data files and taking them off-line, I still couldn't get any new work.

A BOINC upgrade to 4.09 has taken care of the problem for now.

I had a crash some time ago, followed by some failed downloads. Now my climateprediction.com folder contains some things that I may not need any more. (BOINC is currently crunching 329g_000164340_0). What of the following can I delete?
