Database Upgrade: Saturday, February 28, 2015 at 03:00:00 UTC [ Completed ]


Database upgrades will be performed Saturday, February 28th.[ Completed at 13:50 UTC on Feb 28 ]



World Community Grid will be performing a database upgrade starting Saturday, February 28, 2015 at 03:00:00 UTC. The window for this maintenance activity is estimated to be 16 hours, although we anticipate the actual outage time will be less.

During this database upgrade, volunteer devices may not be able to fetch new research tasks or return completed work for a period of time. However the World Community Grid website will be available.

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.

Thank you again for your participation in World Community Grid!

Update: We have completed the planned DB upgrade at 13:50 UTC on Feb 28. The website and BOINC server are fully operational. Thank you again for your patience and participation in World Community Grid!
