\'I have lost my task.
Last time I looked, my first experiment was at about 83% complete. Actually I had lost it at about 14% and completed two others before going back to my first.
Normally after a reboot good old BBCBoinc would restart without user action. Occasionally if it didn\'t restart I could resume the current task by clicking Advanced/select computer/localhost. However, today this trick hasn\'t worked - athough tried a dozen times with two reboots. Definitely not Suspended. The status line of BOINC says \"Connected to localhost\" but no task appears.
I don\'t think the task could have been completed already - there hasn\'t been enough time. So I would like to know how far I got with it, please.

Nothing at all appears in the Tasks tab of boinc/BBC manager? I\'ll look at your results in a moment, but my first guess is that your first experiment crashed again shortly after 83% and sent/reported the whole of itself to the server. This could only happen if you had network activity allowed.

Have you got a fairly recent backup of this first experiment? If you have, you can still restore the backup and continue the model.

Hi again

I can\'t get through to your BBC project results pages. Could you please look in your boinc/BBC manager messages tab and tell us your computer ID number for the BBC project. It will be in about line 7.

Thanks. ID=177214
I haven\'t got a half-recent backup!
I stopped occasional backups during the third experiment, stability seemd so good. Plus, I was reasoning that it should be as easy for HQ to start me half way through as to start me at the beginning.

Your graphs are easy to see, even if it\'s a bit convoluted to get there.

Starting from the Projects tab of your manager:
Click on the BBC project name to select it.
Click on \"Your results\" button to get to the server page.
Click on the \"Result ID\" number (on the left), of the model in question. (884215 ?)
At the bottom is the same number against \"Graph\". Click on this number.
At the bottom of the graph, it\'s divided into years, but at the top it says:
\"Time Series 1921 to\", followed by the last year received. For BBC models, the last year should be 2081, and for cpdn models, 2080.

Your model says 2059, so it didn\'t make it, but it got sufficiently far to be acceptable as finished.

**************

Models are \"a work in progress\", that only exist on YOUR computer.
A large amount of data is returned every 40 model years that enables that model to be extend, but this will be to a random person, and is unlikely to be you.

Currently, 80 year models are being run, based on BBC runs, with different parameter values to the original, and starting from the year 2000.
I.E. a series of Forecast models, based on the BBC Hindcast models.

Backups: Here

You made an important contribution to the BBC project with two completed models and another to 2059, and all three models will have been included in the statistics for HADCM models on the cpdn front page, so thanks for all the work.

Now that no more BBC models are available, if you want to move to the cpdn side of the Oxford project, you\'ll find Les\'s advice on attaching to cpdn in the News and Announcements section of the independent forum here:

http://www.climateprediction.net/board/index.php?sid=847c6f1d8eac37b7e50ae15b27bd9258

On the cpdn side of the project, you\'ll find that in your project preferences you get a choice of types of model, including 80-year HADCMs and much shorter HADSM slab models.
