So does that mean we should expect opencl_nvidia_sah on Main?

Or are we going to have to import it from beta to crunch them?

Best we take this back to the SETI forums (preferably Beta), but IMO: if Eric restores the status quo policy of the last two years, there's no point: even if you import the application, you still wouldn't get VLAR tasks.

I've asked Eric for clarification, got this back:
Sorry, for the confusion. Before last night the main project scheduler did not send VLAR to GPUs. It had been on beta for so long that I had forgotten that it wasn't on the main project.

I did ask about the Nvidia OpenCL application, but he didn't answer on that. Neither anything on the opt-in/opt-out options. But perhaps for that latter I'll need to ask David. First, making dinner though.

Thanks Jord.

I agree we take it back to Beta. I suspect they are still testing the app.

It's Back, but with a couple of issues...

Warning: mysql_pconnect(): Headers and client library minor version mismatch. Headers:50173 Library:50312 in /mydisks/a/users/boincadm/projects/dev/html/inc/db_conn.inc on line 46

That's at the top of every page & the text on every post too large.

/me dusts down the bar. Blows the webs off the stools. Sorry for the errors here and there, and the lights may go out again. But it looks like we're back.

If anyone has a clue as to what exactly happened, let me know. I've been asking and only got silence on the line.

Oh, lord!

No, the "Word Link" thread is one down.

Well, then we know which post caused it to crash!

Yep, blame Timelord for invoking the wrath of the daemons :-)

That was fortunate, just posted & it went down. :-)

Sure... if people stop quoting it.

Thank you.

Good morning everyone. :-)

Glad the BOINC Boards are back!!! :-)

...And, don't blame me for anything; it's not my fault the system crashed... :-)

Also, I see we've lost a few posts... Oh well.

Yes, but I don't think many people mind that. They weren't exactly star-posts. :)

Uh oh...

By the way, is it normal that https://setiathome.berkeley.edu/server_status.php is empty?

That header is gone & the text is back to normal :-)

Maybe David borrowed it when he borrowed the SETI staff yesterday?

The BOINC server's file system failed on Friday night,
and our sysadmins (Matt and Jeff) have managed to get most of the server functions,
including client download, working on another machine,
though there are still some issues with the MySQL database.

This was a wakeup call WRT server reliability.
We didn't have a plan for dealing with failures,
and it turns out we weren't even doing DB backups.

I see it's contagious.

Trying http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/server_status.php instead...

Nope, that came back blank too. But the one I opened this morning:

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/sah_status.html works fine. What made you think it was php?
