Lifemapper's servers are down for service...

Distributed Computing Projects Lifemapper Project

Seems they are doing another rebuild or something and the servers have now been down for a couple hours already. Not really meaning to sound negative but how often is it necessary to work on servers for hours upon hours? I think I’m going to switch back to Folding@Home for the weekend since that is how long they are saying this could last and I hate seeing my electric meter tick away when nothing is being accomplished. :rolleyes:

So… have at my bottom Maj… I’ll be a sitting duck for you this weekend. :smiley:

I run lifemapper alongside Folding, so it will just allow my Folding instances to run at full CPU power :slight_smile:

Same here! So it’s all for good! :slight_smile:

Yeah, I was doing that but I went to two instances of Lifemapper so I could just concentrate on that. Maybe I’ll just do what you guys are doing and run 1 and 1(at least 'til the server is back up for good).

[edit]Btw… 40k Alta? :eek: Awesome work! :cheers:[/edit]

Seems that the server is back up :slight_smile:

I guess it will be up and down like the proverbial over the next couple of days. It is not working for me on Blueyonder at the moment.

Our world domination will have to wait a few days longer :smiley:

Back up 10 minutes ago. :nod:

The maintainence is suppose to take a couple of days on and off.

As of this moment most clients should be able to connect successfully. Bulk of the work is done. If your client is not connecting,
then the orphan work unit could be a problem.

I also lost a few hundred jobs and worse for me, species. :frowning: Hopefully they will be credited back in the next stats update? :confused:

Looks like I’m not getting those units back… :frowning:

That is to bad Jeff, I would really like to :stomp: you fair and square! :nod:

I’m more upset over losing the species mapped than the jobs. It takes alot to get them up and I should have over 2000 now and I don’t. :rolleyes:

14

You should post a detailed as possible describtion on the lifemapper board.
Might help them to check the server logs and track down the prob.

Jeff, please read this post on LM forum. It addresses your concern over lost numbers.
We do appreciate your support of our project. Sorry to dissapoint you.

So …

From what I understand, this reduction of mapped (sub)species hit back to the user stats because they are linked in some sort. Same time it shouldn’t have influenced the computed models.

17

I’m 99% sure I also lost jobs but there’s that 1% of doubt… maybe I didn’t but I’m just about sure I did. :rolleyes:

BUT, thanks for addressing my concerns on the LM boards. It’s nice… err… scratch that… It’s extremely nice to have someone involved in this project frequent our boards. :thumbsup:

Jeff,
Please email us with your LM handle/email and # of jobs you expected to have (some sort of history, in case you have it). Job #s should not have changed. This needs to be checked out. :frowning:
Thanks.
