June 13, 2008 19:37:00 I can read this two opposite ways, so I am asking for clarification. Do you want us to run with other projects, to try out the checkpointing? Or do you want us to minimize the number of other projects to run this with, to speed up the crunching and return of results? ____________ Dublin, CA Team SETI.USA |

June 13, 2008 19:37:00 We are trying the new checkpointing algorithm, so we want docking to be run with other projects to test if checkpointing is working correctly. Also the RSC limit specified may be lower than it needs, so some workunits may have problems. We are generating workunits with higher rsc limits. Thanks for your patience and feedback. |

On my machines, they run so quickly, they never get suspended. I can force some switching if you need, but there are very few, so experimental opportunities are equally few. I exited BOINC then restarted to see what happened to the Dock wu, it seemed to restart, and the %complete continued to rise, however the CPU time reset to zero and started counting up again. The wu is
this one
my machine is 2253.

Update, see it errored out, along with several others. Don't know if that was me fiddling, or simply bad stuff.

hi all,

hi all, This may not be your revised version, but I got some that finally were able to at least claim their computer time and credit, but they also errored out with the same exit code. They did have the de-bugger run though so that may be of use. See result ID 8044 for an example. The BOINC Manager message for this one, which ran for about 1:20:00 with about 8 projects sharing 3 cpu cores, had the same message as the zero credit claimed wu's (which also ran for about that long): 6/14/2008 5:53:33 PM|Docking@Home|Aborting task 1tng_mod0011sc_50_467992_6: exceeded CPU time limit 4288.403915 ____________ |

Looks like some problems at the checkpointing with 5.08. The WU http://docking.cis.udel.edu/workunit.php?wuid=2957 has state Checked, but no consensus yet. The WU was computed from two Intel Macs. One WU of them was restarted four times. |

I exited BOINC then restarted to see what happened to the Dock wu, it seemed to restart, and the %complete continued to rise, however the CPU time reset to zero and started counting up again. The wu is this one my machine is 2253. Have you looked at the graphics window before ? Detaching from the project and attaching to it, fixed the problem with the graphics for many clients. Because I underestimated the FLOPS count for the tasks, the workunits were generating compute error after the estimated CPU time was exceeded. There seems to be some issues with the new checkpointing, we are working on resolving them. Thanks Arun |
