Internet Search / Download files marker consistency question

[haileris]

Hi

If I add a mass of files to download (say download all files from a particular poster) and there is network connectivity preventing the search responding with the download info or newsbin is switched off immediately by mistake for example) how does newsbin handle this? I'm asking that as the status immediately changed to "queued for download", but there is latency between that status being set and it actually being correct?

Thanks

I'm not sure. It's a timing issue. It's a question of when the actual exit takes place and at what time after queuing the downloads that the exit takes place.

What do you observe?

Thanks for the quick reply as ever! My problem has been that I've had a duff SFP cable between two of my switches, which means that I have been getting drop-outs now and again. So I'm not convinced that I have downloaded everything I want, but unless I do a 1:1 verification I'm not going to find out (downloading everything from a poster can be quite a few d/l's of course.)

Assuming there is a potential gap It would be nice if there was a pending status and the status changed to downloading once the download was committed to the database.
