Posted 1 Feb 2024 by Yeti Post: There shouldn't be but it does happen. I've seen a bug in the intel maths library once which caused differences. I forget the details now as it was some time ago, but I vaguely remember it was related to the way it handled memory if vector lengths didn't fit entirely into cache caused summing numbers in different orders. Anyway, it's worth checking. Yes, if you want to get more info about this, I remember that this was a huge point for the guys at LHC@Home from Sixtrack application, especially Ben Segal. Perhaps you can discuss with them about this special theme. Further on I guess this is the reason, why they run all other projects only within Linux-native or Linux-VMs |

Posted 15 Oct 2023 by Yeti Post: But I want updates, just no reboots until I say so. That isn't too complicate: Set up local WSUS-Server and direct your clients to use it. This works really great for me. The WSUS-server fetches the new patches from Microsoft-Update-Servers. The patches are only released to the clients by the WSUS when I activate them in the WSUS. So I can deliver the Patches to my clients when I want it. Normally I hold them from Patchday several days until I hear (or hear not) if there are bigger Problems |

Posted 6 Oct 2023 by Yeti Post: Just hopped on these Tasks. Can you tell me, how much Discspace and RAM is needed per Task ? On a different machine I have an "8.52 HadAM4 at N216", can you tell me same facts for these ? Thanks in advance Yeti |

Posted 21 Feb 2023 by Yeti Post: Oh and you have to install some 32 bit libraries or half the CPDN tasks fail.You better had read: https://www.cpdn.org/forum_thread.php?id=8916&postid=62038 And by the way: For us Windows-Guys it is really difficult with starting on Linux, but meanwhile I like my Ubuntu 22.04.x clients (I had better stayed with Ubuntu 20.x, but now it is too late). I can manage most of the things like I'm used from windows and so this is okay |

Posted 21 Feb 2023 by Yeti Post: ... and push files to me?Sorry, but this is impossible with BOINC What you can do instead: Install a Linux-VM (or a WSL2 with Linux) on your Windows-Machine. Then you will increase your chances to get work (under Linux). I have done this round about november last year and until now I've got more than 350 WUs to crunch. |

Posted 16 Feb 2023 by Yeti Post: I also agree that this should be reinstated as well as be an 'opt-in'. I think the only models that should be automatically opted-in are Windows and current, lowest resolution OIFS. All others require or will require either special configurations (32-bit libraries) or hardware (RAM, older Mac). Perhaps you can place the Infos about needed RAM / HD-Space / Libraries / ... there. Then everybody who wants to Opt-In will have seen these Details. A good example for this is Primegrid, the site of the project-Preferences is very informativ |

Posted 16 Feb 2023 by Yeti Post: We're not sure yet whether boinc is a suitable framework for these higher resolution tasks (will need > 20Gb RAM, more output etc).If you would enable Application-Selection for the User you could make it a different Application and only Users that have Opted-In should get them |

Posted 15 Feb 2023 by Yeti Post: I'm assuming you don't use the machine for anything else?It's sitting on an older ESX-Server and run's only LHC-ATLAS, Squid (for all my LHC-Machines) and now CPDN. For CPDN I have stopped LHC/ATLAS at the moment Does it have ECC RAM?Shure, it's running on a Server Is Squid there from when you used it for LHC?I moved Squid from my former Windows-VM to this Linux-VM a month ago and yes, Squid is full active for my LHC/ATLAS-Machine-Park |

Posted 15 Feb 2023 by Yeti Post: ... something like "divide RAM size by 7G to compute the maximum number to run at a time, and be sure to subtract the sizes of the non-Oifs tasks from the RAM size first"?I have seen several figures how much RAM OpenIFS_PS-Tasks need, 7 GB, 6 GB, in real I have never seen using more than 4,5 GB per Task I'm running 3 OpenIFS in a 16 GB RAM-Environment together with a Squid-Instance and so far this box has run 32 WUs successfull without any errors. |
