1) Questions and Answers : Unix/Linux : March is a Lost Month (Message 11487)

I figured as much. Looking at my machines, I have 2 more model runs
that just started up on 4.11, I'm sure they will die soon enough.

Does anyone know how to move a work unit from one machine to another? I have a
slow machine that has almost a years worth of 4.04 models yet to do on it,
that I would like to move to faster machines that are starving for work. But
I dont' want to tar up the whole dir so as to replace the identity. I'd
just like to copy the proper client_state.xml and whatever else is
needed so the faster machines will pick up the copied model as if it was
originally given to them. I've attempted to copy selected parts of
stuff before, but boinc doesn't seem to like my changes and blows them off.

Since March 5th, every model run I've downloaded
(7 and counting) have failed before the end of
phase 1, usually around credit 1134.21 with a
Client Error. This is 2 different Linux hosts,
each running model 4.11.

Before the jump from 4.04 to 4.10 to 4.11,
almost all my model runs finished normally, no I
haven't had one in almost a month.

Is this a misconfig, or are the models just buggy?

I've seen several consecutive 4.11 models end early in phase 1 with client
errors. Before that, the 4.04 models were almost 100% successful.

&gt; &gt;
&gt; 4.11 has been released for Linux. I think you have to do a project reset on
&gt; climateprediction.net to get the new version, which would likely drop your
&gt; 4.04 model as well. Does 4.11 fix the problem you are seeing? I don't know.

Thank you. That seemed to do the trick.

6) Questions and Answers : Unix/Linux : Excess system time... (Message 10333)
Posted 4 Mar 2005 by old_user1265
Post:
&gt; &gt; (I was surprised when 4.10 was released here... [I'm still running 4.04
&gt; for
&gt; &gt; public-version Models].)
&gt; &gt;
&gt;
&gt; I think it was released so it would work with BOINC version 4.2x that needs
&gt; digitally signed files. Tolu responded to my question about 4.10 <a> href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/forum_thread.php?id=2065"&gt;here</a>.
&gt; I think it shouldn't have the Linux performance penalty we've seen in 4.10 in
&gt; sulphur alpha.
&gt;

On my machine, hadsm3um_4.10_i686-pc-linux-gnu dies after a few
minutes, the model only gets to about timestamp 100. The same
machine (smp) has another 4.04 model running fine. Is there
anything I can do?

I too am having problems with hadsm3um_4.10_i686-pc-linux-gnu
running on Mandrake 10.1. Its a dual CPU machine and one
thread downloaded a new packet a couple days ago, still
running 4.04, and its running fine. The new thread
just downloaded a packet today and got 4.10. It will
stop after timestamp 85.

I agree, it doesn't look like it was completely uploaded.
To get it going again, I had to reset the boinc client, so
its off working on a new model.

I still have the work dir and all the zip files, but I don't
know how to submit them.

&gt; &gt; Close, I have 1 00yy_300026243.xml and 364 zip files.
&gt;
&gt; Which means that all the post-processing completed.

&gt; Hi Brian,
&gt;
&gt; <a> href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=25687"&gt;Your
&gt; result</a> has uploaded its phase 3 mega trickle and has full credit, so it's
&gt; definitely finished. But the status information says otherwise.
&gt;
&gt; Do you have files 00yy_300026243_0_[n].zip (where n is 1 to 5) in your
&gt; climateprediction.net directory? These are the ones that should be uploaded
&gt; by BOINC.

No, I don't think so. The only zip files in that directory are
-rw------- 1 brian brian 10547 Aug 26 17:25 00yy_300026243.zip
-rw------- 1 brian brian 10573 Oct 18 22:00 2x0k_100157473.zip
-rw------- 1 brian brian 4493630 Aug 26 17:25 hadsm3data_4.03_i686-pc-linux-gnu.zip
-rw------- 1 brian brian 4493630 Oct 18 22:00 hadsm3data_4.04_i686-pc-linux-gnu.zip
-rw------- 1 brian brian 3803382 Aug 26 17:25 hadsm3se_4.03_i686-pc-linux-gnu.zip
-rw------- 1 brian brian 4010230 Aug 26 17:25 hadsm3um_4.03_i686-pc-linux-gnu.zip
-rw------- 1 brian brian 4010230 Oct 18 21:57 hadsm3um_4.04_i686-pc-linux-gnu.zip

Looks like the orginal model, plus the next one to start,
but not the completed results of the first.

&gt;
&gt; Also, does your climateprediction.net/00yy_300026243 directory only contain 1
&gt; xml file and 348 zip files?

Close, I have 1
00yy_300026243.xml
and 364 zip files.

&gt;
&gt; Anything else would indicate that something's gone wrong in the
&gt; post-processing of the model. If so, are there any stdout and stderr files in
&gt; the directory (they might indicate what might have gone wrong) and are there
&gt; any hadsm3* programs running?

There stderr file is empty, and the log files show only what I posted, tho I may
have accidently deleted the log file from the day it quit.
The only boinc related processes running are boinc itself,
no hadsm3 processes.

Thanks for the reply, hope this helps diag the problem.

Unfortunately there has been no reply to this message,
nor has the client resumed any activity.

What do I do? The model seems done, but it won't send
it nor will it download a new one.

model 25687 seems finished but the client
seems hung and won\'t send it or request
a new model.

The boinc.log shows

Nothing in stderr.

boinc is running, but nothing else seems to happen.
The directory is full of zip files. What\'s it
waiting for. I have other clients that have
sent and completed their jobs... No diff if I
kill and restart the boinc process.

Any hope of getting Solaris Sparc binaries?
I followed the links for other platforms, and was
able to build boinc itself, but then it failed to
download the proper cp binary for Solaris Sparc.
