Hi Martin_i7-980x (team 96377),
Your WU (P2685 R11 C21 G0) was added to the stats database on 2010-07-22 03:15:54 PDT for 74093.7 points of credit.
That's 10:15:54 UTC.

According to your log, the WU was uploaded at some time between [July 22 08:26:14 UTC] and [09:18:37 UTC]. Also from your log, the same WU was downloaded between [09:19:51 UTC] and [July 22 09:20:23 UTC] and presumably is still processing.

Maybe there's a clock synchronization problem somewhere, but something just doesn't make sense. I don't know how you can get credit for a WU an hour before you uploaded it.

You do mention backups. Was a backup restored somewhere during those times causing the processing of this WU to happen in some unusual order? Do you accept the client's natural flow of Download -- Compute -- Upload or have you changed something somewhere?

Not all of the important events from your log are shown. (Specifically what time was the WU originally downloaded.) Were there other events that I need to know about?

Posted: **Thu Jul 22, 2010 6:28 pm**

Bruce, thank you for your quick reply.

Every thing makes sense.

The work unit was downloaded twice.
The first time on July 20 at 01:47:57 UTC
It the completed (like you said between July 22 08:26:14 UTC and 09:18:37 UTC
It was credited like you and I noted previously (an hour later).

THEN IT DOWNLOADED AGAIN on July 22 09:20:23 UTC

There is no synchronisation problem
The problem is that the same WU was re-issued a second time to me.

The complete log:

Code: Select all

Note #1 : There was a power faillure that interupted folding for some 8 hours midway thru during the night.

Note #2 : I did a backup of my whole system while processing was at 81% done. Since I produce a complete system image on a second HD for a backup, it is realy easy to restore any file.

Note #3 : When I left home for work, it was still processing. When I get home, it should be at around 25%. combined with #2 above, I could "jump" it to 81% in an instant. Would this be reprehensible ?

Note #4 : p2685 processes much faster than p2684, thus a higher PPD.

Once a WU is completed, it's not supposed to be reissued -- although extra copies can be issued when the Preferred Deadline passes and perhaps at other times.

I can't explain why you got a WU after the server had received the completed WU. I do know that strange things happen. When a WU is reissued to the SAME machine it is supposed to be considered a duplicate -- generally after an EUE -- and you're not supposed to get credit for both of the duplicates.

Yes, it would be cheating to bump a WU from 25% to 81% -- but there's a pretty good chance that you won't get credit for it either way. I would discard it an move on, considering the fact that you already got credit for it.

Posted: **Thu Jul 22, 2010 9:04 pm**

Thanks, but this is not the first time I had WUs re-assingned. and sometimes*, both instances where credited.
I think I'll take the chance and let it run.
If I dump it, would it put at risk my bonus qualification ? We nox have to think about this.

* recent examples
p10006-r132-c10-g10, credited on March 19th and 20th
p5768-r12-c237-g348, credited twice on April 26th
p4610-r12-c145-g36, credited twice on May 11th
p6329-r2-c264-g15, credited on June 5th and 6th

p10884-r0-c0-g1, credited June 11th and 12th
p5767-r3-c215-g31, credited on June 23rd and 24th

As you can see it happens more often than you think.
And I have logs for most of them.
