I'm running the BOINC Beta Test. Now I try to add the s@h project on one of my hosts for running both projets at the same time. I have a problem: My System is an XP3200+ on Linux with the CoreClient BOINC 3.07, but I think it is a general problem. I have added the new s@h project with the start-option -attach_project and have set the right URL http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah and the right new key. So I have got a host on s@h. So far so good - boinc loaded new work, but give it to the (running) BOINC Beta Test project. So I have a new account-file and a new (empty) project-folder. Starting BOINC, it shows both hosts, but uses only one. So I have tried another thing: - kicked the BOINC Beta test with -detach_project - saw, account-file and project-folder dissapeared - running BOINC an see: s@h downloads work an cliend - now s@h was aktive - again -attach_project for BOINC Beta Test - now s@h is runnig, but not the BOINC Beta Test So, maybe the CoreClient ist not able to run both projects at the same time. I saw, the s@h client for both projects is the same, the BOINC-program too. I hope, someone know something about this Problem Greetings from Germany |

They are not supposed to always run concurrently. Sometimes it will be running project A for a day, then project B for a day etc. if your settings are 50% to each project. Multiprocessor machines sometimes run the projects at the same time (but it's a little random). Don't worry too much about it. After a short while it will start to switch between the projects the way you told it too. |
