That fixed it. Might have created some ghosts, but I will work to try to recoop those tomorrow. Thanks for your help. |

Good deal! |

Good to hear that it worked out and is now working. SETI@home classic workunits 4,019 SETI@home classic CPU time 34,348 hours |

Nice to get these free-flowing AP's again. More please. |

I deem that to be worthy of a PANIC. |

Read this : https://setiathome.berkeley.edu/weak_auth.php That is your id, not the machine ID. If your approach fails, I'd be tempted to: 1. copy the AP tasks off to a save directory 2. run a fresh BOINC install 3. see if you can convince SETI it's the same box or 4. use the merge computers (duplicate) function, 5. copy the APs back and try to run them. |

Well there's 107 more AP task for you guys to play with :( They all went to ERROR as soon as I attached. At least they won't be sitting there for 6 weeks !! |

Does anyone have experience or statistics on overall performance when using the Intel Haswell GPU portion of the CPU and a PCIe 3.0 Video card vs just the CPU and the PCIe card? (Hopefully I phrased that question comprehensively.) I can't put my thumb on it but I suspect the overall max RAC achievable for a machine using the Haswell portion of the CPU is lower.

No one should look but ATM a few are being split. |

Looks like all AP server side work has problems. All channels are erroring out and no work is being produced. Kevin |

Looks like all AP server side work has problems. That might explain why I haven't been able to snag one AP all day <sigh> P:. |

They split a few, I got a few and now they're out. If the recent pattern holds a few more will be split. |

Looks like there's one splitter still chugging along. I managed to snare 50 jobs between 4 machines in this latest flurry. ";D) "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |

I want a frenzy not a flurry. |

This latest splitting run is at best an intermittent trickle. |

I will not complain about any availability of APs other than none. I'm still snagging 5 to 10 an hour so Carry On! ";D) "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |

More than a trickle.......my cups runneth over.......finally! "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |

Yes my caches are also full but the SSP shows very soon that the well may run dry. |

OK guys, if you have a bit of time to do some "maintenance" on your settings, then keeping a queue mostly full of AP is not that hard, at least until a bunch of you guys start doing this... I will use my main computer as an example. I have 2 NVidia gpu's and that is all I use to crunch seti data. 1) I set my network buffer to 1 day. 2) I do not allow any other project GPU tasks to download into this computer. 3) I do not allow any SETI CPU tasks, and the following concept would still work... The maintenance concerns the SETI preferences. 4) Normally I allow work only AP tasks. 5) when work is low for my GPU's I switch the SETI preferences to allow from other applications. This normally fills by buffer to capacity (which in this case is 200 tasks). After the buffer is full or nearly full, I switch preferences to AP tasks only. Think about it, when the system is constantly returning the short run MB tasks, it causes BOINC - SETI to see if there are any AP tasks to send, so if there are any, the dribble sends bunches of AP tasks, until there are no more being split. So it takes a bit of baby sitting, but if you want to crunch mostly AP tasks, this is what you have to do. I am sure I have let a cat out of the bag for those who do not think about how the system can work with a bit of manual override... but hay... |

OK guys, if you have a bit of time to do some "maintenance" on your settings, then keeping a queue mostly full of AP is not that hard, at least until a bunch of you guys start doing this... Basically the same game I play. Only difference is I do allow CPU tasks, which requires me to tweak the number of simultaneous CPU tasks running depending on whether I'm doing AP or MB. Thankfully, BOINCTasks makes that a painless change to manage. |
