Hi,
I'm a new BAM! user and I want to discuss about its behavior when several hosts are perfect copies of each other.
To illustrate, here is what I did today : I added a new odroid64 to my rig which has now 2 of them (same model).
Of course, it seems reasonable to expect the same projects on both cards.
Then, I presume that BAM! detect similarities and now in my host list, instead of the usual line linking to my perfs (detailed stats), I have a line linking to a sad message

"Host ID doesn't exist in BOINC combined or doesn't have any credit".

It seems that the stats of my first odroid for the last 3 month are lost .
So, I wonder, is it a bug, a feature or only a temporary phase before all data is processed?
Also, is it true that BAM! detects similarities and presents several hosts into one line because they share the same specs?


BOINCstats BAM! ID
218761

update : the sad message is no more, the link leads to a stat page now with all history :-) Nice !
What is still confusing : the number of cores indicated is 4 which corresponds to one odroid, whereas I expect it to be 2x4=8 because I have 2 odroids.

update2 : this is unexpected. The correct stats has now been replaced by a 2-day history.
All is lost after all

As it is not the case for instance on Einstein@home stats where both odroids appear :
