WCG Stats Tuesday 28 February 2023

Across 3 different machines I have 5 ready to report and 53 at 100% uploading. Not quite sure what that all means.

You've crunched them but they won't upload back to WCG because it's closed down at the moment. So, everything is completely stuck.

I am not a "Facebooker" but I followed the link to the WCG page.

Judging by the comments, the crunching community is (mostly) getting pretty fed-up. Some are campaigning for a move away from Krembil whom, they feel, lack the resources and expertise needed to efficiently run the WCG. Other folk are close to giving-up.

What a shame things are in such a mess!

Likewise, I do not use Twitter but this is on there....

Update: As of this morning, the data center continues to work on booting the temporary replacement DSS 7000 storage system. They are attempting multiple alternative strategies to resolve current failures.

Update: unfortunately, the RAID controller was not the root cause of our storage system failure, the PCI bus failed. Data center is in the process of moving the disks to an alternate system and we will post updates as we progress. Once again, thank you for your patience. twitter.com/WCGrid/status/…

It's no wonder people are leaving.

This was the update at 5:31pm tonight.

Thanks @EvanDavis

Any bets about whether we're going to get up and running again by the weekend?

You will need to specify which weekend before I lay any bets, TC.

Good answer @nivrip!

 

[nivrip]

Glad I didn't bet on this weekend.

Whatever are they using...? Windows Millennium Edition...?

It just goes on and on.

I'm sure the punchcard would be more effective.
