Dear LHC admins... before sending out another 1 mio wu's.. please fix the deleter... I've got somewhat 150 credits pending which will never be granted, because obiously the other results have already been deleted from the file system and the validator doesn't grant credit anymore... I vote for modifications which will only delete the results when all deadlines have been passed OR all results have been recieved.... maybe sending out results only 3 times instead of 5 times could fix this? this way only 3 valid results would let the delete job do it's work.... cheers, sysfried |

We're not sure why it doesn't. Let's hope scheduler update will fix it. > only 3 times instead of 5 times could fix this? this way only 3 valid results > would let the delete job do it's work.... Well, redundancy has to be higher than required amount of identical results, otherwise the work "tail" will be too long. But let's see... Markku Degerholm LHC@home admin |

Seems like there is still some more "tail" work to be done. For example: http://lhcathome.cern.ch/workunit.php?wuid=1646 I've got 4-5 others like this that have been around for months. I'm assuming they get stuck because of too many errors or something? |
