First off I dont know if I need to restore or if it was a standard finish due to impossible results.
I recently finished the second of 5 phases and I have several copies of the all the files from before the shift to the third phase. It also looks like I have several zip files stored in the www.climateprediction.net folder under projects. I had previously copied the single folder for my model sulphur_hlkt_100821117 and copied it to a second location on my hard drive. I want to know what I need to do now. How should I restore the files if need to do so.

The entire BOINC folder (plus sub-folders), needs to be copied and saved when BOINC is not running.

To restore, just overwrite the original with the copy.
Then re-boot to remove anything still in memory from the original.

However, the graphs from phase 2 are on your model\'s data page, so a restore would only be necessary if it crashed after the start of phase 3.

Would there be any files specifically that would be needed from the BOINC folder? I am running several different models and i still have several of the older CPDN files on my hd in that folder. Im only starting to worry about how much memory this would take. But considering that CPDN takes the most memory by far I suppose that copying everything wouldnt be unreasonable.
And should I remove the other CPDN files considering they experienced client errors?

I suppose that I dont have enough that was saved to properly restore the current model. But considering that it got much much farther than the others I will be keeping these files for a while.
Oh and I forgot to mention that it did fail after the start of phase 3 I cant remember how far in i wansnt at the computer when it failed. But it did report that it couldnt roll back any farther or something like that. I dont have the messeges recorded (im thinking about installing that option).

Thanks

The folders of models that have finished or crashed can be deleted.
Don\'t worry too much about the failed sulphur models. They aren\'t really needed now that the Coupled Ocean model has started.
(They were a short, 4-6 month project to get data to use in the startup of the CO models.)

ok well anyway i remembered that last time i had a failure someone told me to open the yabsd.out file
this is what it contained

ERROR OPENING FILE ON UNIT 0
FILENAME =
dataout/yabsd.error

IOSTAT = 30

meaning?
