Change NFS@Home to use SSL
I have modified NFS@Home to use SSL. As a result, the project URL has changed from http://escatter11.fullerton.edu/nfs to https://escatter11.fullerton.edu/nfs. If you see problems as a result of this change, you may need to remove then reattach the project. Old http links will continue to work.
Temporary Outage 11/5/2021 5PM EDT
Hi Everyone, I will be taking the server down at 5PM today in order to delete the millions(!) of spam accounts. This shouldn't take too long, but the server may be turned off for a couple of hours. Thanks for your help, and your patience. Tom
Disk up
hi, the new disk is up and running after less than 4 hours later. This disk is were Boinc save all past and present data (not the DB, that is in another more faster one) and the downside of a Boinc installation is that space in that area will grown day by day. As the old one last for more than 3 years, we have at least other 3 years of data to process before fulling this one :)
New disk
hi, in the next days it is planned to move the Boinc data from actual disk to another big one. The operation will be long 2 or more hours and during that time the server will be disconnected from network. So be sure to have the WUs you need or add backup Boinc project to use in the mean time Thanks

Validator Outage
Hey Everyone, MilkyWay@home is currently experiencing an outage for the Separation Validator. I brought it back up once, and then it crashed again. I am trying to bring it back up. In the meantime, connections to the download/upload servers may stop and start intermittently as I work on the server. Thanks for your patience, I will keep you updated as things change. Tom

NBody Runs (8/17/2021)
Hey everyone, We've taken down the old runs and replaced them with new ones: -de_nbody_08_17_2021_v176_40k__data__1 -de_nbody_08_17_2021_v176_40k__data__2 -de_nbody_08_17_2021_v176_40k__data__3 We expect these runs to converge smoothly. If there are any problems, please do not hesitate to reach out. Thank you all for your continued support, -Eric

New Poll Regarding GPU Application of N-Body
Hey everyone, We are currently looking at making a GPU version of N-Body. This code has been under development for quite some time, and the base code is finally working, though we would still need to implement some other features to run it alongside the CPU version. However, due to the complexity of our code and our need for double precision, the GPU version has a similar runtime to that of the CPU version, though there may be some speed-up on professional grade GPU cards. For reference, the…
Separation Validator Updates/Brief Server Outage(s)
Hello Everyone, I will be updating the separation validator starting at 3PM ET. The server will go down for a short time and then come back up. In the case that the new validator causes problems, the server will go back down again to revert to the old validator. I will be monitoring the situation and would appreciate input on any workunits that fail validation after the new validator goes live. The server may go down/back up a few times during this process. Thanks for your patience. I'll keep…
New NBody Runs!
Hey everyone, The last set of N-body runs has converged beautifully. Thus, we have replaced the old runs with a set of new ones: -de_nbody_06_16_2021_v176_40k__data__4 -de_nbody_06_16_2021_v176_40k__data__5 -de_nbody_06_16_2021_v176_40k__data__6 Since the last set ran without problems, we expect this one to run smoothly, too. Thank you all for your continued support. -Eric
IMPORTANT NBODY UPDATE!
Hey everyone, Due to unforeseen circumstances, we at MilkyWay@home are temporarily deprecating our newest version of Nbody (v1.80) and un-deprecating the previous version (v1.76) in its place. Since the lua files associated with each version are incompatible with each other, we have replaced the previous optimizations with a new set: -de_nbody_06_16_2021_v176_40k__data__1 -de_nbody_06_16_2021_v176_40k__data__2 -de_nbody_06_16_2021_v176_40k__data__3 We have cancelled all jobs pertaining to the…
New Separation Runs 6/9/2021
Hello Everyone, I've just put some new separation runs up on the server. Remember those stripe 84 and 85 runs that would start to throw validate errors as they became more optimized? I've been testing and comparing runs on different builds and *hopefully* that problem has been resolved. The names of the new runs…
New NBody Runs! (05/19/2021)
Hey everyone! It's been a while, and a lot has happened! We recently sent a paper for review on the mass and radial profile of the Orphan Stream, so we should be publishing the results of our last set of optimizations within the next few months. We have also been working on the latest version of the MW@home NBody application (v1.80). The simulation now includes the Large Magellanic Cloud in our gravitational calculations, and we added the capacity for our code to fit the orbit of our…
Where MilkyWay@home Was The Last Few Days
Hello Everyone, On Friday, May 7th, RPI experienced a cyber-attack that forced RPI to rapidly take down their entire network. This included email, on-campus internet, and connection to the MilkyWay@home server. We were caught by surprise by the network going down, so we were unfortunately not able to warn our volunteers about this problem or shut down the server ahead of time. We updated our social media a few times during this outage, but please understand that we did not know when service…
Internet connection restored
So, the electrical power was shout down for 3,5h on Sunday in all the municipal area and the very good news was that the UPS (that was supposed to function for one hour) lasted for all the time and it was not near to finish the power reserve. UPS is for saving integrity of server when there is no power, not to support all the rest of network equipments. However when the power was back there were not internet connection! As the service provider repeater is located 200m of distance and there…
Power off on 14/2/2021 for some hours
Hi, on 14/02/2021 from 8:30 to 12:30 (Rome time) there will be a switch off for current in my region. Maybe the power supply will last for 1 hour, then the server will shut down until current return. thanks
New Separation Runs 2/3/2021
Hey Everyone, The following Separation runs had to come down due to the server outage: de_modfit_80_bundle4_4s_south4s_bgset_4 de_modfit_81_bundle4_4s_south4s_bgset_4 de_modfit_82_bundle4_4s_south4s_bgset_4 de_modfit_83_bundle4_4s_south4s_bgset_4 de_modfit_86_bundle4_4s_south4s_bgset_4 I have put up the following new runs on the…
The Last Couple Days
Hi Everyone, As I'm sure you're all aware by now, the server went through a bit of maintenance the last couple days and now seems to be working normally. We had to clear out a lot of backlog workunits due to technical problems on our side. The bad news is that if you crunched workunits in the last two or three days, those workunits may have been deleted before they were validated, meaning that you might not be getting credit for them. The good news is that the server is working again and that…
MilkyWay Maintainance Continuing 2/2/2021
Hi Everyone, The MilkyWay@home server will continue to experience maintenance outages today as we work on resolving the problem with the transitioner. Again, thanks for all your patience. You can check the status of the server at any time at https://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/server_status.php. Best, Tom
Milky Way Maintainance 2/1/2021
Hey Everyone, The MilkyWay server will be going down from 4PM today until midnight. After this outage, we should have the server up and running as normal, and the workunit generation issue will hopefully be solved. Best, Tom
