I will have a remote access but not in case of any hardware failure (it is running on a Lenovo rackmount server with spare PSU, RAID, hotspare drives ready etc) so the chance of it is happening is.. slim :) Cheers!
2) Message boards : News : Configuration continue Message 3879 Posted 29 Dec 2024 by CallMeFoxie	Yes, sorry about yesterday - while the server was doing a live backup it ran out of disk space on the backup drive which paused the VM for a few hours while I was asleep! You can set the limit of how many tasks get uploaded at once locally though, somebody posted earlier the config option.
3) Message boards : News : Configuration continue Message 3875 Posted 28 Dec 2024 by CallMeFoxie	There is setting max_results_accepted to 120 on the server side but it doesn't seem to be doing what it should? Anyways I upped it again to 80MB, Not many people have this many cores :) I am myself at 56 threads max in one server :D
4) Message boards : News : Configuration continue Message 3852 Posted 25 Nov 2024 by CallMeFoxie	I have further increased the max buffer size from 20MB to 40MB, try now :) when BOINC uploads all 1086 tasks at once it runs out of buffers on the reverse proxy, if it keeps persisting, I will either increase even further or it is better to set maximum upload batch to something like 500 tasks <max_tasks_reported>500</max_tasks_reported>

11) Message boards : News : Configuration continue Message 3821 Posted 29 Oct 2024 by CallMeFoxie	I've fixed the file permissions on behalf of ice, let's see what else is broken. I was told of some error with forums while I was away (timeouts), is it still happening?

14) Message boards : Number crunching : Request too large? Message 3785 Posted 21 Oct 2024 by CallMeFoxie	This was my fault - in the new server hosting there's a reverse proxy in front of the BOINC (as there's multiple websites hosted on the cluster) and it had a default upload size set. Hoping 20MB will be enough! However still maintenance is on-going so uploads will most likely fail.
