Is there any way to get the SMX listings back? ie. machine specs, hosts.

I was checking at EOC stats and noticed a few idle rigs, but couldn't look up the specs for said rigs.

In case anybody's interested.

IC-8
IC-9
SM-15
SM-20
SM-28
SM-29
SM-30
SM-33

The rigs in question might be having issues, the host is on vacation, etc. I didn't bother yet to search the thread for more info.

BTW-what's going on with the 2 folding teams?

The Team Staff has been doing semi-routine checkups on the rigs. The main F@H page is not up yet. We have all the specs around somewhere.

Some of the rigs are in different states of refitting, dead due to bad parts, or.... missing.

As for the Team stuff... The SM Team Staff is discussing possible plans and determining the next step. Whatever happens, we will ask for Team support before doing anything, assuming we CAN do anything. Right now.. we're working on it. Sorry... the Team stuff is a bit more difficult to work on than the site merger. We have to deal with Stanford and such.

IC-9

SM9 turned in a WU a week ago and is running just fine. It just takes this slow machine a while with the 574-pointers. (And the 206-pointers, and the...)

It ought to be finished with it's current WU sometime this evening.

SM 28 seems to be missing deadlines somewhat often...

Sorry Prof,

I was doing a quick scan through the stats and noted the greyed out ones.:o I should have checked when the last wu was turned in also.:banghead:
I don't mean to offend any hosts by any means! If I do I'm sorry.:(

Basically it was meant to be a check-up of the SMX project. (is it still the SMX project now that SM is history?:scratch:)

Ok, Ok... My logic is that it was tough for a few people but do-able. Changes regarding the Team may not be possible and may envolve a ton of people that we have no control over. Tough as far as the potential.

The site merger was never a doubt... I knew Matt and Brain could handle it... I was not questioning the difficulty. (Done back tracking for now...) :D

I was checking at EOC stats and noticed a few idle rigs, but couldn't look up the specs for said rigs.To be blunt:

1) There are a few completely obsolete machines out there in the SMx/ICx mix as well as a couple broken ones. There are plans in the works to fix that. The concept is already formulated, but we (SMx Committee) haven't finalized the details, which is always the toughest part of any action plan.

2) There are also a few deadbeat hosts out there - probably good people all, but hosts who nevertheless have lost interest in hosting Team 93 machines or don't bother to monitor their ICx/SMx computers. There is a solution in the works for this as well.

3) Clearly, the "donated computer project" is in an outdated phase now that has been overtaken by the events of rapidly advancing hardware and software technology. The ICx committee recognizes these challenges and is on next-phase plans. We are loyal and excited about Team 93 and strongly desire to watch excel as much in future as it has in the past. We would have loved to have corrected SMx/ICx systemic problems by now, but want to make sure our plans are practical and forward thinking before they are implemented.
