repeat project

[ccsergent]

I noticed the project I'm running now, 6382 (7, 78, 29), had been run before on my laptop. seems to be wasting resource, if it is a repeat. I recognized it by the project description, not the (#s). Does it have anything to do with the fact that I've recently acquired a passkey? but sure why it should matter?

There are thousands of work units inside each project number. It's not a duplicate. Track it by all the numbers, not just the Project 6382 number.

The project description applies to the Whole project -- anything with the same four-digit number. The other three numbers identify individual units within the project. They stand for Run, Generation, Clone. AFAIK there is more info about these somewhere on the FAH site.

Your system can be assigned many different WU's from the same project. The full designation of a WU includes the Project, Run, Clone and Gen numbers. So unless all 4 numbers are the same, they are different WU's and each is contributing towards completing the project.
