I'm going on a vacation soon, and was wondering if it's possible to somehow set Einstein@home/BOINC so that I can complete and report the results on a current data processing job, but delay BOINC from requesting and downloading another job to my queue until I come back. That way E@H won't lose any time sending data to me and waiting for the deadline for me to report results; it can assign the data to someone else until I'm ready to compute again. Is this possible?

I'm pretty sure you just go to your projects page and hit ... No new work ... and it will complete and report what you have with out calling up anything new ... at least I have that option ... I'm using BIONC 4.43

I use 'Leave at least [10000] GB disk space free' to suspend machines :-)

Thank you for the replies. I

Thank you for the replies. I just upgraded to the new version two days ago. I'll give that option a try. Best wishes. San4d.
