1) Questions and Answers : Getting started : Can\'t find trickle reports anymore. (Message 23422) Posted 30 Jun 2006 by old_user15540 Post: Thanks, that worked. I think it\'s useful to see your trickles coming in, gives you a clear picture of your progress and gaps in it, etc. Greg E What you\'re now running is a Coupled Ocean model, now called TCM (Transient Coupled Model). Possibly for server efficency reasons, the \'old\' results page is now not displayed, but it can still be accessed by editing the url string at the top of your browser. In the last part of the string, where it says: graph_cm3, type in: result, and you\'ll be able to see the \'old\' style data. I found this by comparing the url of a slab model with the url of a TCM, and having a fiddle. :) PS It\'s not a good idea to include your email address on posts. Spammers can get it. :(
2) Questions and Answers : Getting started : Can\'t find trickle reports anymore. (Message 22664) Posted 6 May 2006 by old_user15540 Post: I\'m going round and round in circles trying to find the old trickle report list. I\'m running a sulphur-cycle now. I\'ve searched Results, Work Units, Account etc. Anyway, sorry about this, can you point me to where it\'s got to. Tks. copy gedwards@sgi.com if possible, tks.
3) Questions and Answers : Windows : Got allocated 2 whole CPDN runs at once ! (Message 12300) Posted 4 May 2005 by old_user15540 Post: I've just completed a CPDN run on Boinc 4.19 GUI, and then reinstalled Boinc from scratch, using 4.35 GUI. I re-attached to all my projects (LHC, Einstein etc) and all went well, each one downloaded about a couple of days of work. Then attached to CPDN, and it appears to have downloaded 2 runs, each of estimated 600+ hours. This seems way too much, I won't finish the first one for 2 or 3 months, no point giving me a second one, and it seems to break the rule about how much work to assign. I intend to abort the 2nd one, using 4.35's nifty new feature for Aborting. Any comments ? Greg E. (Windows XP SP2. Boinc 4.35.)
4) Questions and Answers : Windows : Upgrading Boinc 4.19 to 4.25 in middle of model ? (Message 11767) Posted 11 Apr 2005 by old_user15540 Post: The Boinc dev folks are pusing 4.25 now, but I see CPDN only offers 4.19 as a download still. Does CPDN recommend 4.25 ? Should I upgrade in the middle of a CPDN model ? I had a thorough serach in all the CPDn forums but found no refernece to 4.25 - even tried quoting and escaping the numbers, the period, etc. Thanks !
5) Questions and Answers : Wish list : Can the CPDN news provide more regular progress and status info ? (Message 5435) Posted 16 Oct 2004 by old_user15540 Post: Hi, I\'m settled into a comfortable routine now, running CPDN, Seti, LHC, Predictor (if it comes back on line), on a few computers. I try to quickly flick around all the main news/status pages of these projects every few days, to see if there is news I should know, like a recommended client or Boinc upgrade, a new visualization tool, a major error uncovered, a paper/article published, or failing any of that a regular confirmation that all is well with the project. It would be great if the CPDN (and all Boinc/DC) sites had a page with this \"essential update for the busy user\". The CPDN news is too sporadic for me, is what I\'m saying. The Folding@Home folks are pretty good with this, there\'s always something only a few days old on their site to reassure you they\'re on the ball and the project is healthy. There you go, a viewpoint from the \"settled-in\" user, wants his distr. computing news real easy :=) Best Regards, Greg E.
6) Questions and Answers : Wish list : Pls explain more about the RSS news feed (Message 4911) Posted 1 Oct 2004 by old_user15540 Post: Hi, could you explain what an RSS news feed is, and what info would come over it, and how frequently. I\'m interested in keeping up with cpdn news but don\'t know whether the \"RSS news feed\" buys me more than just checking the cpdn home page every few days. Thanks.
