I'm suspending the servers to give time for the disks to empty on the main storage.

Excuse me for asking - I am a complete, total, 'newbie' to shared computing.
Deleted original question was if "disk full" was causing my "request defferred".

All seems OK now: I am already 30% done with a new task (my 1st GPU task ever).

Thank you!

Yes, usually server errors such as this are transient, and clients recover (sooner or later).

Also, your host is working just fine, not a single error :)

Task downloads appear to be bottlenecked. I'm seeing 0.13 and 0.08 KBps on two tasks my client has been trying to download for about 40 minutes now. Not sure if this is a problem, or just a massive amount of clients trying to refill their work queues after the outage.

wow , was gunna ask if gpugrid is working as i still wanna help. built a new super rig w this gpugrd in my target, so dissapointed to have to add other projects. dont wann join folding, stay loyal to something.. but had to add projects to use anything, reading the threads.. lots of negativaty. so much. when we all trying to help. so silly . i see a server status, but even after all this searching (45 min) i can only guess the server is getting hammered by all the new useres wanting to help. but idk. want to know if theres any update. is the server handing out units ?, or is it me., but i dont wanna get yelled at for asking.

Server is working fine. I'm getting a continuous flow of work. Just make sure your drivers are up to date and compatible (nvidia). Looking at your machines, one has a 2080Ti and had work but didn't start the work in time. The other, AMD machine, doesn't have a GPU.

What I am seeing is the following (I belong to Team BOINC Australia but it is not showing).
I have just joined project but nothing is happening although lots of other projects have been running fine!
Please, can you advise what action I should take?

GPUGRID works only on nvidia GPUs, you have AMD.

Yes, all uploaded tasks keep waiting for scheduler be enabled to be reported as finished.
In the meanwhile, they look at BOINC Manager something like this:

Hi:

On my PC I am limited to 2 GPU WUs. Can this be increased so that there are extra WUs for times like this?

This is a question that we all GPUGrid's contributors have wondered at any time, but:
Currently, the project's policy is: Two WUs at a time for every single GPU.
This is how it currently looks at my single GPU system #186626:



The server has had to be stopped due to a data overflow.
If policy were (let's suppose) 10 WUs at a time for every GPU, when server were enabled again, it would have 5 times more finished WUs waiting to be validated...
For sure, project managers have pondered about it, and they have probably conluded that it would suppose quickly a new server overflow.
And every single system would take 5 times as long to process that greater number of stored WUs, which could slow down the work.
Many times I think: Life is a compromise. I have alternative projects to process when GPUGrid is stopped...

(PS: If scheduler remains stopped beyond today's 10:49:41 UTC, both finished WUs in above example are loosing their 24H bonus.)

I think this happened with Folding@Home a while back during the covid surge. Their method of distribution was by the use of a collection server and a assignment server. The collection server was down because of an issue (I forgot if it was a disk space issue or a technical issue) but the assignment server kept assigning work units to nodes. When the collection server finally came back up, it was immediately overwhelmed by the amount of work units being uploaded at the same time
