Hey thanks Gary. I don't

Hey thanks Gary.

I don't have a lot of v 1.03 left on this one machine so I won't mind aborting them - I just normally avoid that until "last resort" presents itself.

But does that also mean these 30 some-odd Pending v 1.03s should be aborted too?
Or just waited out for available wingmen that the Server will eventually *find?

I did just refresh cache and have a supply of v 1.04 - as well as same on 2 other machines now

And the first 3 v1.04 on machine #1 are Pending rt off the bat now too.

I'm happy to share your "abort existing un-processed tasks in cache that are earlier than v 1.04" along to my Team if you advise appropriate

You can't abort a task already returned to the server. They will be matched up and validated in due course.

Exactly!!

If a task has already started and is partly processed, just let it finish. If there are V1.03 (or earlier) tasks that haven't started yet, abort them, return them and get an equal number of replacements. These will all be V1.04 and you wont have lost a single second of processing time. If suddenly a further new version were to appear (say V1.05) it would be because of some flaw discovered in V1.04 and I would give the same advice in that (currently hypothetical) case as well. In these testing situations, you always want to be running the current version if possible.

Doing this should more quickly assist with the testing of whatever changes were made in the new version. Ultimately, this should help get the app out of beta test status sooner.

Cheers,
Gary.

OK. Thanks for the

OK. Thanks for the confirmations

Well I accidentally aborted 3 v 1.03s that were currently crunching - didn't see them on opposite side of page(out of view)

So 17 Total is all I had in my queue - out they went - the 3 partials and 14 others. not bad, but sorry for three that got trashed.

Thanks again for the Explain and what to do

Hi, There will be wingmen

Hi, There will be wingmen assigned soon for validation?
Have others received credit yet on the Gravitational Waves 1.04?
Thanks, Stu D.

Yes, there will. The run seems to have moved beyond test status so there will be a very large increase in hosts to provide quorum partners.

I certainly have. I have around 30 validated tasks of which about 5 so far are 1.04.

It's actually a bit rude to put simple queries like these in bold. It's a bit like saying, "Hello!! You guys have a problem and you don't seem to be paying attention!! Why aren't you doing something about this??", when there isn't a 'problem' at all. It's just the way things are.

The shortage of 'wingmen' has already been explained and credit will flow quite soon now as the take-up of tasks has increased dramatically. Just a little more patience is needed.

The easiest way to show what you want to show is NOT to copy and paste the whole web page (and perhaps overwhelm readers with smaller screens) but rather to provide a simple link - like this one.

When you are composing a message, there are standard buttons (at the top) you can use. Also, there is a "Use BBCode tags ..." link which will give examples on how to use various features.

Cheers,
Gary.
