&gt; Each model run in CPDN has three phases - for an explanation of this see <a> href="http://www.climateprediction.net/science/strategy.php#exp_1"&gt;here</a>.
&gt; Your experiment is actually nearing the end of phase 1, so 23 trickles is
&gt; correct.
&gt;
&gt;

Great thanks for the info......this means my lap top (another model I have underway) which has 43 days left in phase 1 will need years to finish lol! Well...not quite perhaps...... I have to say I see my unix box making much much better/faster progress than any windows client.....have other people seen this too?

This info is way too late.
To me it's pure nonchalance.

They don't understand that running a BOINC project needs time and resources.

There are so many other projects out there that knows how to run distributed computing.

Yes, I'm off.

Looks like trickles are making it in, but the verification and addition of credits is no longer working, again. I have had several trickles come in, and no credit added.

Now that it's the weekend in the UK, I suspect this will not be fixed until next week.

Also no XML stats have been created since the outage.

Oh well, I still crunch, and am patient.

Well, not only in the UK ;-)

&gt; ... I suspect this will not be fixed until next week.

Yes this would be realistic.

Its the best way to keep cool at these high temperatures out there: Not to excite themselves and to retain a cool head.

Ciao and a nice weekend!

Well, yes, the trickles do show up on time, therefore I know, I have some 300-400 credits to receive. So, my question to project managers: When will this be fixed (I beleive it will take much longer than a few days) and why didn't you in the first place enlarge the storage space on trickle server when it filled up for the first time?

P.S. It would also be about time you repaired the XML exports.

Happy crunching,

Please, before we start judging on someones actions. STOP !

Besides that, it has been reported that the trickle issue was related to MySQL.

If the issue was related to storage-space, than a lot of trickles would have been lost !

As far as I know (umm, where is that thread? O.K. Can't find the thread, but you can check this <a href="http://www.climateprediction.net/newsb.php?id=0">news item</a>: ...The immediate problem was due to a server which had filled up... ) both times this year when trickles stoped flowing, it was storage problem and not database. CPDN has a nice ability, to report past trickles, so that is why they didn't get lost. And IMO, my question was more rethorical wondering than passing a judgement.

Happy crunching,

Message 13931 - Posted: 27 Jun 2005, 10:39:24 UTC - in response to Message 13789.  

&gt; 5 trickles finally emerged magically ( ;) ), but only two of them generated
&gt; credit... hmmm ? ;(
&gt; Well, i'll wait another 2 or 3 days (what matters by a 7 days outage) for
&gt; credit to flow in, before i moan further... ;)
&gt;
Ok, another 3 days over, another 5 trickles brought in, and (of course) no credit recognized... :/
I start to wonder if there is really anything been done, except posting announcements ;)

Note the news section of CPDN, a planned outage in order to actually fix the db problem [hopefully the trickle, credit and misallocated WU issue]

&gt; Yep, I have two (one finished on the 20th, and another on the 21st) that
&gt; completed with 72 trickles, but the end of phase 3 graph is not there, and the
&gt; credits are incorrect for a successful run.
&gt;
&gt; http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=870517
&gt; http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=856478

ditto. Just in case it's worth mentioning:
Finished on 20th June, 72 trickles, Outcome Success, No P3 Run Info, odd credit
http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=862571

I also have one where everything looks okay, but server state still in progress
http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=769760

I presume that if there are any problems with these models server-side, someone will contact me via email... :)
