Lots of "Attempt to get work failed."

Is anyone else suffering from this?

I seem to be getting a lot of this and at least half of my folding machines are sitting idle with this message. On some machines core 1 is working but core 2 is sitting idle with this message? On others cores 1, 2 & 3 are working but core 4 isnt.

Are stanford having issues?

In terms of getting GPU work there is definately a problem. Just have to roll with it, it's the same for all teams.

There's problems on several fronts, Clinets, Cores and WU's.

Core's are getting better, but there are a few problems with certain WU's on specific hardware, they are working on it and we're feeding them all the error logs they are asking for.

The core and client issues have not helped the WU / server situation. The servers are having problems dishing out WU's as we're going through them at a phenomenal rate due to the EUE's (many get 5 in a row in minutes, then the client amps out for 24 hrs).

Hang in there folks, all I can say is there "are new cores / clinets" in the hopper that will be comming out at some point".

Glad to hear things are on the mend, even if I am now down to part-time status at best.

PS - KE1HA in oversized sig shocker.

Careful what you write here about closed beta clients/cores too - assuming that's what they are as I can't see them

/maybe shouldn't have spilt that news on the Win-SMP client way back when

News will be coming - been one hell of a week in RL

You're out of the beta stuff too then? Same here. I gave it all up when FCF died.

I gave it up when they booted me out

Not got the time for the proper beta stuff these days anyway

edit: Come to think of it I got kicked from Fight Club for the same reason

I see what you did there and I approve.

Naughty Rich.

They're not available from Stanford's download pages so I suspect they're not public yet.

Couldn't see them on the areas of the forums I have access to as an unregistered user either - fair enough really as you'd need to be registered to give feedback even if they weren't actually closed beta
