It also left 1.5 GB of data files. Is there any way to recover and resume? ID: 27271 · Reply Quote

When the 2 projects I\'m running connected they generated a new host CPID. Any probelms with that, or am I still not going to get credit? I assume I should just merge the two machines in a day or so to clear things up a bit. ID: 27280 · Reply Quote

I\'m not sure you\'ll be able to merge the hosts as they display different CPU info. In any case, you should still get credited for the work and the science will be of value. ID: 27284 · Reply Quote
