one of my machines just ditched all of it's wu's for no reason First, tell us which of your 20+ computers you suspect has issues. Based on your Computer pages on the Seti@Home website, I don't see any of your machines having a large number of errors or invalids. Second, what did you see, and where (BOINC Manager or website page) that led you to believe so many Tasks had been trashed? The more specific info you can give when asking a question like that, the easier it is to suggest a probable cause or solution. Donald Infernal Optimist / Submariner, retired |

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=1908960649 This is one of the 299 abandoned wu's that got ditched yesterday on this machine http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=7772586 looking at the machine itself i only see 31 cpu tasks that got removed since the machine only runs gpu tasks I came down with a bad case of i don't give a crap |

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=1908960649 So something happened on 24 Sep 2014 01:14:24 UTC on that machine. Looks like Most of the Tasks have been resent, completed and validated, and are clearing off the machine's Tasks list. Does the BOINC Manager Event Log or the machine's Event Log show any significant event at that time? Donald Infernal Optimist / Submariner, retired |

i will look at that tomorrow when i get a chance to go to the server room the machine is in there so nobody but me could possibly have touched it since i'm the only one who has a key to it and i wasn't there I came down with a bad case of i don't give a crap |

It's not really a question of "what happened on/to that machine around that time," as much as "what do the logs say around that time?" A while back, I helped to nudge troubleshooting the abandonment issue into the direction of an out-of-sequence scheduler request. It could still be that issue. That's why the logs are useful.
