So in your preferences for this project you have

Run only the selected applications
SETI@home Enhanced: yes
SETI@home v7: yes
AstroPulse v6: yes

and also

If no work for selected applications is available, accept work from other applications? yes

Make sure you have Seti v7 and/or Astropulse v6 enabled in your Setiathome preferences for your home location.

(The general (computing) preferences are shown as being set to the home location, but since there aren't any they use the default location's, but are then over-ridden by the local preferences, and are of no consequence to this problem.)

I have made all my preferences the same. I hope this works. Or, I will be asking for more help.

I am running 7 BOINC projects and I am never out of work. At least 4 out of 7 give me work.

Bones, go to your online SETI Preferences, http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/prefs.php?subset=project, and select SETI@home v7 work for all locations.

Cheers.

Message 1393637 - Posted: 22 Jul 2013, 16:45:13 UTC

Wrong thread i know, can´t fidn a better one, sorry.

What i wish to know if anyone knows how to configurate a 3 GPU host to run, on each GPU 1 AP task and 1 MB task continuously.

I allready try

<name>astropulse_v6</name>
<max_concurrent>3</max_concurrent>
<gpu_versions>
<gpu_usage>0.5</gpu_usage>
<cpu_usage>1.00</cpu_usage>
</gpu_versions>

But don´t work as i need, because it´s start 3 AP as i wish but not 1 on each of the 3 diferent GPUs, it´s normaly start 2 on the first GPU and then 1 on the second and fills the rest with MB.

Why i need to do that? When 1 (alone) or 2 AP WU runs on the same GPU the GPU load oscilates form 30 to 90 % of usage like a saw, when 1 AP + 1 WU is running simultaneusly the GPU usage remains at 98% continuously all the time, as happens when 2 MB WU are running.

What i want is to keep 1 AP crunching on each GPU when AP work is avaiable and fill all the rest of the slots runnig MB for a constant of 6 WU crunching at a time.

Yes i allready free 1 CPU core for each AP WU.

Any help is welcomed. Thanks

Try but not work, if you add 0.51GPU only the 3 AP Wu starts to crunch no MB.

Any other sugestion?

BTW I manage to make that work manualy (with 0.5) by selective suspend/restart the work, but requires a lot of babysiting.

Make Seti_v7 0.49 or 0.48?

Yes,

Thank you, Claggy. Works like a charm. Works perfectly.


EDIT> Juan, what kind of penalty have you seen in AP run times?<
