Alcune novità della migrazione del progetto verso il nuovo cloud

September 8, 2025
Over the weekend we were able to restore the DB2 databases for the website and forums.
It was a redirected restore that first required a fully containerized instance of DB2 running the same OS as we were in Graham cloud, and we ran into issues attempting the restore of the final backups. Both databases are now successfully restored, and we have moved on to containerizing Websphere and IBM MQ.
We were able to restore the BOINC database.
As part of our work on MAM1 we developed an integration testing environment and containerized the BOINC database.
We also did this for the BOINC server components (scheduler, upload and download servers with file_upload_handler, transitioner/validators/assimilators etc.).
Once we get IBM MQ and Websphere up, we will be able to bring the entire system online shortly afterwards.

Sembra che le cose stiano tornando online pian pianino.

We are finalizing IBM MQ <-> DB2 <-> BOINC db <-> website axis, which will allow us to bring up the website. If all goes to plan now - we should have the website up tonight.
Once that is solved - we will go through the BOINC stack to ensure nothing catastrophic will happen when once we let traffic through to the scheduler, upload/download servers. Then we can finally start letting the BOINC daemons manipulate state in the BOINC db.

Dai, dai

World Community Grid: We miss you!
We see that you haven't contributed to World Community Grid lately, and we need your help! We encourage you to start participating again today, so download the software and begin contributing again.

Io contribuirei più che volentieri, se solo inviassero WU!
E' arrivato qualcosa ieri, non so cosa o quante wu. Vedo solo i crediti che sono saliti. Poi il buio di nuovo...

Adesso sembra ci sia una buona coda di MCM
sono unità che durano circa 2,5 minuti sul mio AMD 5950
C'è ancora qualcosa che non va: il mio pc PC WIndows 11 viene riconosciuto come "Alpine Linux" chicazz'è

Finally....
October 21, 2025
Finally stress testing rather than correctness testing.
Sent a batch of 100,000 workunits (fast running, not full size in case something crashed.
Thank you for your patience and continued support.

ora le durate sono più regolari, siamo intorno a 75 minuti per WU

Dalla ripresa dell'invio di WU il sito WCG non aggiorna le statistiche di Boincstat.
Qualche idea in merito ?
Grazie in anticipo

Probably has to do with the fact that they are still testing. Latest Update:

October 24, 2025
We have paused uploads and release of test batches while we work on the validation throughput issue.
We think we have identified the root cause of the low validation rate for the MCM1 test batches, and we will send a few more test batches to confirm the fix does works.
If this is the final fix and we see the expected validation rate for pairs of MCM1 uploads for new batches, we will replay the Kafka consumer on the upload events fired for test batches received earlier in the week, and this should idempotently allow the new batch assimilator to process those validations and assign credit.
If the above goes well, we will schedule regular MCM1 batches to resume instead of the test batches.
As volulnteers have noted, we have not yet reconciled uploads of regular MCM1 results submitted before we began sending test batches, and before the migration, but we have those files and will be able to do this in a batch update once the path for new workunits is working as described above.
Naturally, we will resume ARP and MAM only after these issues are fully resolved.

Thank you very much Entity have a good day !
K.

Ancora problemi con la validazione delle wus....
