#1 Milkyway@home Server Downtime March 28, 2022 (12 hours starting 00:00 UTC)

Post by Newshound »

Hey Everyone,

I will be turning off the mysql DB for the server at midnight UTC (8PM EDT) for 12 hours. Last time I kept some processes running, but turned off the WU generators in order to give things time to catch up from the drive failure (they are currently still off). I don't think that the server finished rebuilding then, so I will be turning all MW processes completely off for 12 hours, and then hopefully by the time I turn things back on again, the drive will have rebuilt.

If you only tune in to the BOINC notices, apologies for the massive drops in RAC lately. These are related to a hard drive failure that we are still in the process of recovering from.

Thanks for your patience. I know that this has been very frustrating for all of you, and it has been frustrating for me as well.

Best,
Tom
