They don't normally swap tapes until they have been split for both MB & AP, so we could have some wait given the current rate of (not) splitting the APs :-(

The question is, that is doing automaticaly (wait of few hours) or manualy (wait almost a day)?

If some are still in the pipe automatically.
If not ..........

My faster rigs are already running out of GPU tasks. The slower ones will hang in there for some hours yet.
My guess is we won't see any new MB work until maybe tomorrow, but I can still be hopeful that will change.

Im running on SETI drayland too, 100WU on a 2x690 host takes less than 2hr to finish. I realy hate the 100WU limit, they need to change it soon at least to 100WU per GPU.

Before doing that they need to sort the ability to deliver the >100 work units per hour that many of the more modern crunchers manage.

Well, I do find it rather frustrating when I can't cache enough work to ride out anything much more than a few hours of server problems on my better crunchers.

Actually I just received 3 GPU work units. Someone must be working on it at the lab. Results ready to send now shows as 1.

just resends from WU's who missed their deadline...

You can't be sure of that, his computers are hidden,

I've just received GPU workunits too, they aren't resends, they just happen to be Astropulse GPU Wu's, GPU Wu's none the less.

Claggy

Thanks Claggy. Ya, they weren't resends.

Just curious ..

Which endings the WUs had? x_0, x_1, or x_2, x_3 .. ?

Here's the name of one of the work units. The others had similar long names. No x_0 or x_1 or x_2 or x_3.

That's the Workunit name, what about the task name? There are Multiple tasks to a workunit, from 2 to 10.

Yep. I'm still in the process of putting this cruncher together and need more parts. It's running with the mobo sitting on a wooden table and fans blowing on it.

Well I did just notice that with 5 AP splitters running and no new MB work being produced.. cricket shows that we are not at max capacity.

So if we are MB-only, we run about 60-70mbit, and if we are AP-only, we run about 60-70mbit. If we could get our pipe to be increased to 150mbit (since my understanding is that it is connected via a gigabit connection, but we're only allowed to use 100mbit of it), that should pretty much "fix" the throughput problem.

It'd be good to push for a minimum of 250Mb/s. No more traffic jams after outages, and it would give room for growth. Be a bit of a pain to finally get an extra 50Mb/s, only to have to argue for it all over again in a matter of months.

Don´t forget the limits, MB uses 70% of the avaiable BW with them, or more without.

BTW Still running out of new WU, seems like the change of tapes is done manualy and we need to wait someone arrive at the lab, Others porojects say "thanks to that"

I have been crunching for a few years now without ever actually bothering about how long it takes for the discs to be recorded and how/when it gets transported from Arecibo to Berkeley.

Work is being split again, unfortunately most Scheduler requests result in "Couldn't connect to server" messages.
*deep sigh*


EDIT- make that all requests. The Scheduler is borked.

Not ALL requests...
Very hard to get through right now, but the kitties have managed on a few rigs, and have started to get just a bit of GPU work here and there.
But, yes, the scheduler is tied pretty tight right now.

Must be the distance thing again then.
45min & not a single request has gotten through on either of my systems.

Well, I have 9 rigs making the attempt, so I would have a few more chances to connect. I tried the update button on a couple of them, but it's pretty useless to do so. Just have to let the kitties keep trying whilst I am gone to work and count on random chance to have some work get through.

Hmm... so they dumped once again lots of unsplited AP. Is AP not worth crunching or how shall we understand that?
