Re: Downtime warning

I'm trying to download MCM units, but many times only get 2-5 of them per manual attempt to update. This has happened before; it is not a good omen for the system stability.

Re: Downtime warning

I have stopped getting tasks from the server. I guess it's my turn to be down for a couple days? What's happening? Can anyone give an answer to this issue?

Simple answer - don’t aim a crunch competition at a project known to be running on 25% resources during a data centre upgrade.

Re: Downtime warning

I certainly wish that they would send a notice to the BOINC manager to explain these outages when they happen. This is really annoying.
