snooze
Hey there...
Sorry if this was answered before but i did not find it when doing a search.
I thought "snooze" was something like a "pause" (not having to shut down the manager all the time), but.. when i used snooze it removed the work file and all work done till then was lost.. the project started from scratch again..
I do not think it is such a good idea to remove the files when snoozing.. any work arounds please? (i have the latest version of Boinc Manager installed and running the World Community Grid project)
Oh, and another question, i don't know what was the exact link to the page that provides statics about your work (the one that states if the results you sent were erroneous, valid or invalid, the amount of points requested/amount of points given etc.)
Thanks!!

Re: snooze
Welcome to the team!
'Snooze' is susposed to work as you said - ie just pausing. It's always worked for me. Perhaps if you pause it when it's doing something unusual it goes into a sulk! I think you must have been unlucky. Try it again just as a work unit is starting - that way you won't lose too much if it does go pear shaped again. If it does best post on the site - but I suspect it'll work as advertised.

Assuming you mean WCG - log in, click 'my grid', click 'device manager' then 'results status'. Not sure if this will take you there or not unless you're logged in first.Oh, and another question, i don't know what was the exact link to the page that provides statics about your work (the one that states if the results you sent were erroneous, valid or invalid, the amount of points requested/amount of points given etc.)
