2005-06-03 11:02:41 [climateprediction.net] No work from project
2005-06-03 11:02:41 [climateprediction.net] Deferring communication with project for 6 hours,
25 minutes, and 37 seconds
Line-By-Line Explanation
- The Participant's Computer is asking for more work by submitting a request to the Scheduler.
- The Scheduler Request succeeded.
- Message from server: No work sent
- But, no work was sent...
- Because: The Host has already download the maximum allowed number of Work Units.
- Results in no work from the Project.
- Now, we will wait for some interval of time set by the Exponential Back-Off Mechanism.

and 59 seconds
Line-By-Line Explanation
- The Participant's Computer is asking for more work by submitting a request to the Scheduler.
- The Scheduler Request succeeded.
- Message from server: No work sent
- But, no work was sent...
- Because: The Host is not the same as the other Hosts that the available work has already been issued to and is being processed by those Hosts. This is a feature to ensure better matching of the Results and is called Homogeneous Redundancy.
- Results in no work from the Project.
- Now, we will wait for some interval of time set by the Exponential Back-Off Mechanism.

(2) 2005-05-12 09:55:26 [ProteinPredictorAtHome] Message from server: (there was work but you
don't have enough disk space allocated)
(3) 2005-05-12 09:55:26 [ProteinPredictorAtHome] Message from server: No disk space
(you must free 100.0 MB before BOINC gets space).
Review preferences for maximum disk space used.
(4) 2005-05-12 09:55:26 [ProteinPredictorAtHome] No work from project
Line-By-Line Explanation
- Message from server: No work sent
- A Scheduler Request Message was sent to obtain more work, but the Scheduler did not return any work.
- Message from server: (there was work but you don't have enough disk space allocated)
- Because there was not enough space left on disk drive on the Participant's Computer. Without additional space there is no room for the additional work.
- Message from server: No disk space (you must free '(number)' MB before BOINC gets space). Review preferences for maximum disk space used.
- You must free up this much space to obtain more work from the Project.
- No work from project
- So the end result of this exchange of Messages is no new work.
