1) Message boards : Number crunching : MAC OSX Client Does Not Maintain Enough Work (Message 1042497)

I have two machines that had been doing most of the SETI@Home crunching. A few weeks ago, I added 3rd machine, an i5 MacBook Pro. However, despite my configuration, the MAC OSX client does not maintain the 10 days of work I want it to maintain ... it only requests enough work for the available cores. My other machines are fine ... my quad core machine, for instance, has hundreds of tasks waiting. Why not the MAC OSX client? Is anyone else seeing this problem?

Yes in the past, Go to Bonic>advanced>preferences and click on Clear in the upper right hand corner. You are most likely using local Preferences instead of web based.


Thanks Dena. I did just as you suggested and I can see in the Messages screen that the client is now requesting new tasks. Now, the problem is that the project has no tasks available. Doh! >8)
