Please stop running these CMS tasks since it is just a waste of your time and there is no problem on your end.
We are just waiting for new work to be ready at the server and the update will most likely come from Ivan when that happens and most likely in January

We have this same thing every December

Same here......if I hadn't looked just now I would have lost 100's of these CMS
But I haven't checked them all yet so I might have
VM Completion Message: Could not connect to all required network services

(same thing at -dev btw)

Well, the number of running jobs has nearly tripled. Not sure if that means the US election results have been well received, or that it's cold enough now that people need extra heating from their PCs!


I caused my computers to smile and do even more CMS work just for fun.

Must admit that keyboard insert to keyboard overwrite is about the only thing I never tried or used
( I also had my Boinc Stats do what yours is doing so I went there and reinstalled the stats box and it worked)

Thanks Ivan

I do have a large batch running on my CMS machines so I will watch and see if I should keep running those
(I had noticed a few days ago you were running CMS with Alma9 so I talked to my Linux employee friend about that version)

So far the -dev version 6.01 (vbox64_theory) Microsoft Windows running on an AMD x86_64 or Intel EM64T CPU
[boinc pp z1j 13000 35 - herwig7 7.2.1 nlo-pw-dipole 100000 253 has been running Valids in just over 5 days each

I knew that would be a jinx if I said they worked because my current batch of 4 of those 3 just crashed after .......
Run time 6 days 6 hours 20 min 57 sec
CPU time 6 days 4 hours 52 min 3 sec
The 4th one is still in the running log but I will be surprised if that actually is Valid since the previous ones finished in 5 days
