Apologies if this has been posed already as not sure if this is a problem personal to me, but...

I never see Cuda tasks running now and my RAC is going through the floor. I've noted the GPU prefs and have reset them to allow GPU whilst in use but still no change. I did up to .48 and yesterday reinstalled .18 but still no change.

Can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks.

Since you appear to have only one Cuda enabled system, I'll assume that's the one you're talking about. You're running anonymous platform, so I'm again assuming you're running one of the Lunatic's flavors.

I just quickly perused your recent pendings and valids and they ALL appear to be Cuda generated results, so I'm puzzled as to why you think Cuda isn't running. Could you offer some more details of how you arrived at your conclusion?

A fairly accurate assessment. Perhaps my opening gambit should be rephrased.

Computer: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=5126909

I no longer have evidence to screenshot, however, I drew that conclusion as the task list indicated that the job was at circa 26% complete with a status of 'waiting to run' and displayed the exact same information for over 24 hours.

Only two tasks were actually running and they were both CPU tasks.

The tasks aborted due to this apparent anomaly are:

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/result.php?resultid=1586619309
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/result.php?resultid=1589256981

The latter indicates an elasped time of 39:48:57, which is somewhat unusual.

As to why my pending list shows only Cuda tasks I have no idea. CPU tasks take around 1h25 to complete and Cuda 8-15 mins.

If I were to simply put my head in the sand, I would say that the problem has gone away due to aborting the offending tasks.

Apologies to the wingmen btw.
