I've got a WU on a machine that is turned off overnight and on weekends. It's expected time of completion is over 6 days, which translates to over 3 weeks given the downtime on this machine.
Normally that would be no problem since these big WUs usually have pretty late timeout and expiration dates, but this one has an expiration date of ... a little over 3 weeks.
So, there's a good chance that it will reach the expiration date before it's finished.
Should I just dump this now and hope I get a smaller WU?
I've never dumped a unit yet, but maybe this time I should??????? -- Jamais le mal naura le dernier mot. La foi et lamour déplacent les montagnes de la haine. - Marguerite (Maggy) Barankitse
I would say dump. I would not risk a bad or old WU being on my Laptop.
Jammy
p.s. No longer has her old 5 desktops but I have a now 14 month old dual core laptop and am saving for a couple more. I have a need for speed and running up my electric bill, lol. -- lagh lucharghlu'bogh HuH ghopDu'lIj lungaSjaj
