Oover th last day, CPDN was having some server problems, and, when able to allow BOINC to connect, provided this information: climateprediction.net - 2005-05-09 19:41:10 - Sending request to scheduler: http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc_cgi/cgi climateprediction.net - 2005-05-09 19:41:23 - Scheduler RPC to http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc_cgi/cgi succeeded climateprediction.net - 2005-05-09 19:41:23 - Message from server: Server has software problem climateprediction.net - 2005-05-09 19:41:23 - Project is down Unfortunately, BOINC was unable to stop itself from immediately trying to reconnect. I would like BOINC to recognize this message and delay connection for a reasonable amount of time, say 4 hours. |

The server can send such a message to the client already, it can request a delay before the next contact is made. So it would be just a matter of replacing the scheduler CGI with a static text file containing a scheduler-like message, as long as the error consists. The tag is <request_delay>, enclosed in the scheduler tags. And it can already send a user message too with <message>, even with different priorities (to make it blink red instead of blue I guess). |
