It's been a while since I navigated the server status pages, so I'm not sure where to look specifically for bigadv work, but for the last hour I've been getting the following:
Code: Select all

I don't think this is just -bigadv -- I'm getting the same thing with -advmethods on one of my Linux SMP rigs right now.

Partial Stanford Network Outage. Fah home page and Fah News page was offline for a while.
They know, IT working on it.
EDIT: Up again?

What bad timing. I thought I did something wrong with a VMware image upgrade. Hope it's back soon.

I repeat, the same exact thing is happening on both PC and Mac SMP Clients
right now, and has been happening since about 3PM PST today...it's now later
than 9PM PST with no relief in sight yet.
Does anyone have an idea when this is going to get fixed?
I will just leave all my PC and Mac SMP Clients on line at this time, but if it's
going to be a long time before things are straightened out it's best if I just pull
them offline for awhile.
It's been awhile since anything like this has happened and my SMP Clients are of
course hungry for new WU's!
Thanking you in advance if you have any word on this situation Mr. Totow, as you
seem to be the one who gets answers first!

My apologies for stringing a Mac SMP Client here, but it's the same
over on the Mac as Windows side tonight...just no WU's are being assigned
at this time...the eternal "No appropriate work server was available" is the
only consistent thing on both PC and Mac Clients right now, since about 3PM PST...
