Line-By-Line Explanation

• Resuming computation for result '(result)' using '(science application)' version '(version)'

The Result is started again.

Some 2 days later ...

• Aborting result '(result)': exceeded disk limit: '(disk-limit)' greater-than '(max-disk)'

The Result is aborted because it exceeded an allowable limit, in this case, disk space.

• Unrecoverable error for result '(result)' (Maximum disk usage exceeded)

The Result cannot be recovered or restarted because of the violation.

• Deferring communication with project for "x" hours, "y" minutes, and "z" seconds

An attempt to contact the Project's Data Server failed so we use the Exponential Back-Off Mechanism to defer communication.

• request_reschedule_cpus: process exited

The Science Application for this Result ended, so lets reschedule the CPU(s).

• Computation for result '(result)' finished

The Result is finished.

• Sending scheduler request to '(url)'

Initiating the communication session with the Project's Scheduler.

• Requesting '(seconds)' seconds of work, returning '(count)' results

Within the Scheduler Request Message we are asking for work to the tune of 'x' seconds, and also returning 'count' Results to the Project. In this case, there was a need a small amount of additional work, so the time was set to 1 seconds worth of work needed; and there are no Results to "report".

• Scheduler request to '(url)' succeeded

And we had success contacthing the Scheduler!

• Starting result '(result)' using '(science application)' version '(version)'

With another Result, we start up the Science Application.
