Posted 17 Nov 2010 by old_user249784 Post: My project hadsm3dhet2_k2xl_006613451 has developed an Iceworld, but it has reached over 97% (237238/259248), so should I let it run to completion? |

Posted 14 Jan 2009 by old_user249784 Post: These are Jeremy\'s tasks. Unfortunately I had not backed up since late November (I use the copy and paste method). Of course I should have backed up before installing the new version of the BOINC program. This version saves the application data in a different place, unlike the old program. I think in trying to sort the folder problem out I lost the unfinished task. Although I still have the folder for hadsm3fub_k4dk_005970459 I now realise that it\'s impossible to restart it with the folder alone. This will teach me to back up more often... |

Posted 13 Jan 2009 by old_user249784 Post: My computer crashed yesterday, and I lost two projects. One has ended with \'Compute error\' (which possibly caused the crash) but the other one says \'Client detached\' (Task ID 7674417). This was nearly 50% complete. Is there any way I can reinstate it? I still have the data folder on my computer. At the same time I have upgraded the BOINC software. But now I am running two completely new tasks... Is there any way of getting back to the uncompleted one?? |

Posted 20 Jul 2008 by old_user249784 Post: Very useful info, thanks. This means the model\'s progressed 2575 timesteps in more than 7 days which means about 360 timesteps per calendar day. You\'re going to have to put this defective model out of its misery by aborting it. Better luck with your next model and thanks for reporting the problem. I wish more members would post to report anomalies and abnormalities. So the problem is in the model? There\'s no point in restarting it from the last back up? |

Posted 20 Jul 2008 by old_user249784 Post: Two possibilities: The graphics certainly look like an ice world! I\'ve taken a screenshot but can\'t see a way of attaching it. Details are: Model date: 10/06/2060 hours elapsed: 505:03:50 2.66s/TS timestep: 164597 out of 259248 Progress: 87.83% I\'ve looked at the workunit (615042) and notice that two other tasks (7418482 and 7418481) seem to have stalled at the same point. The last backup I have is dated 15 June but this includes another model running normally and 95% complete. |

Posted 19 Jul 2008 by old_user249784 Post: I am running two Slab models. One is progressing fine and has nearly finished. The other, which was started the same day, has started running backwards!! The last trickle was sent on 12 July, and in the last few days the time to completion has been going UP and the progress has been stationery - or actually going DOWN! The task ID is 7418486. |

Posted 24 Apr 2008 by old_user249784 Post: Jeremy, you were surprised that your completed slab model disappeared from the Tasks window of your BOINC manager. This disappearance is normal when a task is reported. But it\'s still on your CPDN web pages. Here it is, with lovely graphs: Thanks for your help. As my computer usually runs for only 10-14 hours a day, I\'m going to concentrate on slab models and make sure that they complete successfully. One last question: when I back up, is it good practice always to keep the last two backups in case the last one doesn\'t work as happened to me? |

Posted 23 Apr 2008 by old_user249784 Post: Let us know what you eventually decide and how you get on. The crashed project wouldn\'t restart. I decided to abort the coupled project and run two slab models. When BOINC fetched them, I got this message (on both occasions): Your computer has 1024MB of memory, and a job requires 1464.84MB, although in my preferences I only checked slab models. Presumably an error from the server? Anyway, the two models are now running. |

Posted 23 Apr 2008 by old_user249784 Post: Let us know what you eventually decide and how you get on. The slab model has now finished (result ID 6977062) but although the zipped result was transferred last night and progress shows as 100%, the project is still in BOINC Manager as \'in progress\' and \'Ready to Report\'. Why doesn\'t it appear as successfully completed?? Sorry, when I pressed update it reported and disappeared! |

Posted 19 Apr 2008 by old_user249784 Post: It was probably the \"save while BOINC was running\" that caused the problem. My slab project (hadsm3fub_e095_005911418) should complete early next week. I am uncertain what to do next. I could try to restore hadcm3inct_ckmt_1920_160_75866945 (but it didn\'t work when I tried before). No one else on the work unit seems to be working on it. Or I could abort that and resume hadcm3istd_0c3p_1920_160_15936539 - but several other computers seem to be working on that. Or I could start 2 new slab models. Any suggestions as to my best course of action? |

Posted 17 Apr 2008 by old_user249784 Post: I expect you know that when you restore a BOINC folder backup, you have to paste it into an empty BOINC folder? You can\'t add the backup to stuff already in the BOINC folder. OK, I have deselected HADCM3 projects. Also, I think running two projects simultaneously did make my (not very new) processor work overtime, judging from the noise it made. Yes I did create a new folder when I tried to restore. I might try once more when my current project completes. |

Posted 16 Apr 2008 by old_user249784 Post: Oops, my mistake there - I\'d forgotten what it was called. I agree that the simple manual backup method is very useful as one sees exactly what one is doing. For the record, all that CCEbu.bat does is this (configured for my system): XCOPY \"d:\\Program Files\\Climate Change Experiment\\*.*\" \"F:\\CCE-bu\\CCE-backup\" /C /M /E /Y. It is not automatic, it has to be started manually. It is possible that I didn\'t exit from BOINC before running it - I guess that\'s the only explanation. I did try restoring the 14 March backup, but that didn\'t restart the crashed model. |

If you find out what the error message was, let me know if there\'s anything I can do to retrieve any lost data or restart the project. I won\'t use the backup facility in the meantime. |

Posted 15 Apr 2008 by old_user249784 Post: I\'ve also had \'Client error\' messages, the latest on 14 March for a project which had been running for about 8 months (result ID 6685813). I back up fairly regularly using CCEbu.bat, but it seems to have been this which caused the model to crash as the backup file of the project in question was timed the same time as the result. Is there any way I canretrieve the lost data? I\'ve now stopped running the screensaver and will exit before shutting down. |
