1) Message boards : Number crunching : Rapid Increase in RAC (Message 36438)
Posted 21 Mar 2009 by old_user183856
Post:
I also am getting a big increase RAC. It started when i began running the new AMP3 models.
Also it doesn\'t appear to be showing up at BoincStats only in the boinc manager ???

Recent average credit RAC (according to Climate Prediction) 1,291.92602
Recent average credit RAC (according to BOINCstats) 1,070.93927

Post:
I was excited to see a new app (6.04) for the CM3\'s.
Ran another model, but it crashed just like the others.
I also increased diskspace to 40GB.

As far as BAM goes, are you saying I should stop using it
and try detaching/reattaching to CPDN?

I\'m still getting that same error message.
I\'ve used my yahoo and comcast email address.
I can\'t figure out what i\'m doing wrong.
It\'s just not my day....

Yeah, I stupidly hit the reset project button when those newer
CM3\'s started coming in and crashing. I really like running
these longer models to the end ..... Ed

Post:
This is the error message I get when trying to register
at the CPDN independent forum. I\'ve tried a couple of my e-mail address,
and even tried using internet explorer on a pc at work in case it didn\'t like Safari.
(Mac\'s browser)

Could not find email template file :: textual_confirmation

DEBUG MODE

Line : 111
File : emailer.php


Also I don\'t know how to make the Ulimit change permenant.
When i to it from a terminal window, it reverts back to default
when i close the shell. Unix is not my strong suit. Someone else better try this one.
Thanks again .... Ed

Post:
I downloaded to many SM3 wu\'s to get more work right now.
Still waiting to try the Ulimit changes.

The register process is broken on the other boards, and the
moderators won\'t respond to my requests for help.

Can someone try getting this thread going over there to try
and stir up some other mac users, or project people?
The stated fix for this problem isn\'t working. The app is clearly
broken and no one seems to care..... Thanks

I have 3 pending tasks that i mistakenly trashed.
(reset the project without aborting them first)
They\'re just sitting in limbo in my pending credit.
Should anything be done with them ????

Post:
I see over on the main boards (which I can\'t log into and post for some reason)
They are saying the same thing about memory segments. I have the same values
as the example and it still crashes. How high dare I up these settings ???
11) Questions and Answers : Macintosh : CM3 Errors At Start (Message 35242)
Posted 15 Oct 2008 by old_user183856
Post:
I\'m starting to think the shared memory segments aren\'t the problem.
I have the quadrupled settings which are more than adequate.
CSM3\'s used to run fine when they started like this \"hadcm3istd....\"
Now they start like this \"hadcm3ivolc...\".
These are different and failing. Nothing else on my end has changed.
If anyone is running these models successfully, please let me know what you did.

I did those changes a long time ago to get CPDN to run.
(i just tried increasing some more)

Tried a new CM3, and it died the same way.
