Title: 96 hour storage limit too short
Post by Danny on Apr 6^th, 2009 at 10:49am

Dear Sergei.

I was running three different GABranch jobs that had not finished by Friday afternoon. Monday morning they had already been deleted. I'm guessing the 96 hour clock might start ticking once the unique id is created and not when a particular method finishes?

Also it would be super awesome if we could just download an id.tar.gz file for each id.

Dear Danny,

The 96 hour clock is indeed ticking from the time a job is created. I'll see if I can modify the code to extend the clock on the files that are currently queued up for execution. I am not sure what you mean my tar.gz file - what would you like the archive to contain?

Dear Sergei,

By id.tar.gz I mean an archive containing all the information contained on the server associated with a particular id. As it is now it seems one needs to save each individual page separately. Obviously this isn't anything critical, it would just be convenient.

Dear Danny,

That's what I thought. I'll see what I can do.
BTW, I added a check to the data purge script to ensure that files presently scheduled for an analysis are not deleted: they get to live to the midnight (PST) of the day in which the job is finished -- or at least that's the idea.

Cheers,
Sergei
