3) Questions and Answers : Macintosh : No Tasks Available for Mac? (Message 52894) Posted 16 Nov 2015 by MyLittleBoinc Post: I heartily recommend VirtualBox. Using VB you can create a 32bit Ubuntu guest OS and then run all the Linux work units without trouble. I have run CPDN that way in Windows and also in 64bit Ubuntu. https://www.virtualbox.org/
4) Questions and Answers : Unix/Linux : Multiple CP task management (Message 51421) Posted 15 Feb 2015 by MyLittleBoinc Post: You have done 106,628 timesteps and a completed task runs to 348,548 timesteps, so you have done just over thirty procent. http://climateapps2.oerc.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/trickle.php?resultid=17770651 http://climateapps2.oerc.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/trickle.php?resultid=17488554
5) Message boards : Number crunching : No resubmission hadam3p_eu (Message 51181) Posted 12 Jan 2015 by MyLittleBoinc Post: I downloaded a number of these and now I notice they are marked "No resubmission". Should I abort all of them, even those that are currently running? http://climateapps2.oerc.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/results.php?hostid=1350911
6) Message boards : Number crunching : Name BOINC mis-estimates runtime for hadam3pm2_k00w (Message 51072) Posted 30 Dec 2014 by MyLittleBoinc Post: Some of my hadam3pm2 wu's have had interruptions and I guess that's why they finish with an error of zip files being absent. Are these wu's still useful for something or could they just as well have been aborted?

8) Message boards : Number crunching : 100 000 years of computing time (Message 51068) Posted 29 Dec 2014 by MyLittleBoinc Post: Looks like the WCG have dropped the climate research. I can find no such information on their site. Maybe it got too hot?
9) Message boards : Number crunching : Credits. (Message 50950) Posted 9 Dec 2014 by MyLittleBoinc Post: I still wonder about the credits. I feel that me and my computers have reached much too lofty heights among the Top Participants. Sixth place! http://climateapps2.oerc.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/top_users.php
10) Message boards : Number crunching : Twelve trickles sent in at the same time (Message 50857) Posted 20 Nov 2014 by MyLittleBoinc Post: It isn�t my own computer, I just saw it while browsing the top participants. http://climateapps2.oerc.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/show_user.php?userid=558670
11) Message boards : Number crunching : Twelve trickles sent in at the same time (Message 50854) Posted 20 Nov 2014 by MyLittleBoinc Post: How was this possible? http://climateapps2.oerc.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=16130365
12) Message boards : Number crunching : 100 000 years of computing time (Message 50144) Posted 12 Sep 2014 by MyLittleBoinc Post: World Community Grid are getting into climate research and they promise "up to 100,000 years of computing time". How much is that when compared to what we are doing here at CPDN? http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/
13) Message boards : Number crunching : New tasks, Charts (Message 49558) Posted 14 Jul 2014 by MyLittleBoinc Post: The charts are stuck at 11 July 16:00.

15) Message boards : Number crunching : UK Met Office HADAM3P (global only) with MOSES II landsurface scheme v7.03 (Message 49019) Posted 2 May 2014 by MyLittleBoinc Post: http://climateapps2.oerc.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=16607393 This one has an estimated run-time of 259 hours. Much better than 1800 hours!
16) Message boards : Number crunching : UK Met Office HADAM3P (global only) with MOSES II landsurface scheme v7.03 (Message 48996) Posted 1 May 2014 by MyLittleBoinc Post: "These MOSES cannot recover from any stop-restart - any stop, any restart - " That's good to know. I have now shut off all updates to my two little Linux computers. They run on battery-backed 12VDC, so are hopefully safe from power glitches. I was going to rearrange my computer nook but that will now have to wait for three or four weeks.
17) Message boards : Number crunching : CONVERTING TO LINUX (Message 48921) Posted 27 Apr 2014 by MyLittleBoinc Post: I ran CPDN on 32-bit (not 64-bit!) Ubuntu in a VirtualBox session and it worked right out of the box. No problems at all.
18) Message boards : Number crunching : Aborting an orphaned WU (Message 48540) Posted 26 Mar 2014 by MyLittleBoinc Post: I�m experimenting to see what my new little motherboard can do and when I did a reinstall I forgot to abort a running WU. Is there any way to abort it now? It feels wasteful to wait until March 2015 for it to be reissued. The now deleted VirtualBox computer is http://climateapps2.oerc.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/results.php?hostid=1321713 The motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-J1900N-D3V http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4918&dl=#ov
