 BOINC's [ValidationSimple simple validator framework] is sufficient in almost all cases. If for some reason you need more control, you can use the low-level framework (on which the simple framework is based).

     * If a recoverable error occurs while reading output files (e.g. a directory wasn't visible due to NFS mount failure) then check_set() should return retry=true. This tells the validator to arrange for this WU to be processed again in a few hours.
