Did you know what is happening? 13/03/2013 06:16:24 | SETI@home | This computer has reached a limit on tasks in progress But it not have a single GPU WU allready DL in my cache! So how it reaches the limit? Makes no sense[/b] |

Both your mahcines show 200 on board? Did you know what is happening? 6269362 has been doing some GPU work in the past hours. That timestamp is local, so without knowing your timezone it's a bit difficult to mathc to the UTC website times. Your hosts are of pretty similar makeup so I struggle to think of something that only affects one of them. I may have spotted another host, but I need confirmation that it's not had its GPU disabled. Anybody else has a host that had an allocation of 100+100 tasks before maintenance but now only gets 100, please post host ID. And no, 26153 posts of 'works for me' and 'I'm getting 200' and 'no problems here' are pretty unhelpful, so please, refrain from stating that. It's nice when it works smoothly but it's a slap in the face of those having problems. The notable exception being when you want to report that a previous problem has subsided. A person who won't read has no advantage over one who can't read. (Mark Twain) |

Yes, it looks like both machines are doing OK now. I posted that before I went to work. I can see the stats from work, but can't see the Boinc console. Maybe I'll get a remote console going so I can monitor both of my Seti machines from work. Must have been some gremlin that got into the machines. Hopefully it's gone for good. I've seen this odd behavior before. Sometimes it goes away in a couple of hours, sometimes it can last for many hours. |

I'm not so sure. At 09:35 this morning (-4hrs UTC), one of my machines requested work and was told it had reached its limits. Checking with BOINCTASKS it had 94 CPU and 92 GPU tasks on board. At 09:35, a request was again made reporting 8 tasks and got back 8 (7 GPU & 1 CPU). Something is fishy. What I really need for this machine are AP WUs. When will we start spitting out AP tasks again. In the words of WWE's Ryback -- FEED ME MORE!! I don't buy computers, I build them!! |

Well, we're going to need some more 'tapes' soon - we're down to three on the server status page, and only two MB splitters. I imagine it's on their 'to do' list for when they get to the lab in a couple of hours' time. |

Well, man your TCPs, folks. Looks like we have a few fresh datasets and AP is splitting again. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

And, yup. AP starts back up and all of a sudden my rigs start having problems connecting to the servers to do scheduling requests. Meowsigh. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Something like this? Similar, but never saw a 'gateway timeout'. Usually, cannot connect to server or internal HTTP error. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

And I really don't understand why maxxing out the bandwidth with AP downloads VS having it maxxed out with MB downloads results in chaos. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

I have some 40 plus timeouts again on the I7 3770. Is it possible to code so that the the sever asks whether the CPU or the GPU needs work, Before it just blindly sends work? I wont lose any sleep over having time outs, But it seems like a waste of bandwith. Why send work twice when once would have worked. [/quote] Old James |

I'm getting random "Couldn't connect to server" errors on my Scheduler requests. Add to that there are only 2 MB splitters running, so when the next batch of shorties come through, we'll run out of work rather quickly. Grant Darwin NT |

I have some 40 plus timeouts again on the I7 3770. No - the server doesn't blindly send work anyway. Your computer requests work, and it requests CPU or GPU work as needed (or both, of course) I edited out these lines from my last post: 13/03/2013 17:34:29 | SETI@home | [sched_op] CPU work request: 0.00 seconds; 0.00 devices Enable <sched_op_debug> from client configuration if you want to see that extra detail. |

I have some 40 plus timeouts again on the I7 3770. I had a look in there Richard. Reminded me of a book of latin I once looked at:) So I will leave the codeing and programming to those in the know. And take my timeouts with good grace. [/quote] Old James |

What is a pfb_splitter6 that lando is running on the Server Status page? |
