[NumberFields@Home] Finally recovering from hard drive crash.

Post by BOINC_News »

The crash was so bad that the database could not be repaired. The first non-corrupted backup was 2 days old. Restoring from there seems to have worked but there are probably issues since it will be out of sync from results that get returned.

I pushed the deadline back another 4 days for any outstanding WUs to give people time to return them, but anything issued 2 days prior to the crash will not be in the database so I am not sure how that will play out.

Sorry for the inconvenience!
