Guys (and gals),

I've installed BOINC 3.19, attached to S@H and all seems to be running fine.

A couple of days ago I also attached to Predictor@home, giving Seti a 65% resource share and Predictor a 35% share.

Now, all of the P@H WUs are being crunched and none of the S@H units are getting a look-in.

Any ideas?

Cheerz,

Andy

Yes. It is expected for a newly attached project to dominate BOINC until the resource share becomes balanced. (depending on how long you've been running the other project, this could be a couple days, or more than a week)

Just let it do what it needs to do, and it will get back to S@H. :)

And it seems Seti now distribute no workunits. We have to wait.
