System Upgrade: Saturday, February 7, 2015 at 03:00:00 UTC [ Completed ]


System upgrades will be performed on Saturday, February 7th. [ Completed Feb 7th @ 2350 UTC ]



World Community Grid will be performing major server and software upgrades starting Saturday, February 7, 2015 at 03:00:00 UTC. The window for this maintenance activity is estimated to be 8 hours, although we anticipate the actual outage time will be less.

During this software and hardware upgrade, the website may be completely unavailable at times. In addition, volunteer devices may not be able to fetch new research tasks or return completed work for a period of time.

No action is required by the members, as the BOINC/World Community Grid software application will automatically reconnect to our servers once the upgrade is over.

Edit: We have completed this change. We apologize to our members that the outage was longer than originally expected and thank you for your patience while we were performing these updates. If you encounter any issues, please post them in our forums or contact support@worldcommunitygrid.org as we will be monitoring those for reports.

Thank you again for your participation in World Community Grid!
