At the end of May I accidentally installed a virtual machine on my disk where boinc resides and it ate up all the free space. The boinc manager reported an error with my running hadsm3mh model and it came up at 100% complete, although I know it was around 70%. I stopped boinc and restored a backup from three days earlier (after deleting that virtual machine.) For some reason I thought I could keep the work of the second model (a hadcm3istd) by maintaining its folder and xml file. Both projects then showed 'over' and 'client detached' on the tasks page. I decided to keep running to see if anything changed. The hadsm3mh completed and I was able to upload everything successfully--but the status never changed. Question: should I continue with the other model?

Status doesn't change, but the work is good. It's the way the BOINC backend works. CPDN is very different over other projects.

Keep up the great work!
