21) Questions and Answers : Getting started : New to Climate Prediction - No tasks for a week (Message 64492) Posted 23 Sep 2021 by leloft Post: One other thing, your Athlon X2 with only 3 GB of memory is going to have trouble running two of the hadam4h models at a time. They each take up about 1.4 GB of memory when running. I see you only downloaded one on that PC, which is good. Although even running one at a time, that processor may take over a month to finish one task. Thanks for the pointer. I'm now restricting the machines with an app_config.xml so that I can monitor and adjust things as the workunits progress. leloft

If this is just because of workunit availability, I'll just reattach and do other projects while I wait. In my stupidity, I mistook 3636 secs as 60 hours not mins and thought the situation would take days between work fetch attempts. Hours I can live with, if it's simply a matter of waiting and not configuration issues. Many thanks leloft
23) Questions and Answers : Getting started : New to Climate Prediction - No tasks for a week (Message 64488) Posted 22 Sep 2021 by leloft Post: Hello, I've just joined cpdn, but I've been running other projects for years. I have successfully attached six machines today; all of them running Devuan and all of them have the 32-bit libraries installed. The lowest spec is an AMD-X2 (2 cores,2 threads) with 3G memory, two i5s (4 cores, 4 threads) with 8G each, an i7 (4 cores, 8 threads) with 16G, a twin xeon 6-core (24 threads) with 32G and a /var/lib/boinc-client partition of 200G. They are all successfully attached and running cpdn without issue. The sixth machine is a twin xeon 8-core (32 threads) with 128G memory and a 200G boinc-client partition, but it has failed to download any work despite trying several times during the day. It now has a waiting time of >60h (>3000 secs) before requesting any further work. Two questions: 1. Any suggestions why this machine does not get any work when the other machines are running 37 units between them and there are 484 units ready to send? I cannot see that it is due to a machine-spec limitation as it's the highest spec of the lot. 2. Is there any way to circumvent the 60h wait, so that I can try and troubleshoot the failure of the machine to download any work units? Many thanks leloft
