Yesterday and today I lost 4

Yesterday and today I lost 4 completed tasks due to this issue. And the message to hold off came just after I deleted tasks in the upload stage, so lost credit. Please be prompt in sending out a notice that uploads can be completed successfully.

Curious what will happen

Curious what will happen regarding the deadline dates on all these WUs that are awaiting upload?

RE: Just two quick

Quote:

Just two quick replies:

- Defragmentation might not help in this case as we suspect the inode structure itself, not the data. In such a case xfs_fsr won’t help. We started the fragmentation check but had to stop it in favour of a repair we’re currently running (we saw an FS error on Wednesday as well). We’ll check the fragmentation level as soon as the repair is done.
- We’re currently talking about 12 TB. We could in principle delete significant part of that but we’re not able to do that with the current FS performance…

Stay tuned,
Oliver

Okay, I understand.

RE: I just spent the better

Quote:

I just spent the better part of an hour punching Retry and finally pushed through all my uploads. Problem is, these were the files for five tasks that have now timed out. They haven't been sent to anyone else, but they also haven't been credited as reported by me.

[edit]
Now they have, although one of them is inconclusive.


The third task of that inconclusive WU has still not been sent out. But I suppose Bernd and Oliver have bigger things to worry about.

You shouldn't be losing any tasks as long as you don't delete them.

We'll most likely extend the deadlines by one week such that this shouldn't become an issue.

This is taking too long. All my machines are idle. Time to switch projects.

Scheduler etc. will remain

Scheduler etc. will remain turned off and no more work will be sent out until the filesystem check has finished.

I have all these work units

I have all these work units sitting on my machines incapable of being uploaded. Are you working on that as well?
