Ok for the future work, but in other words that work unit is lost.

Hi everybody, I hope this is the correct forum.

It seems that one of the two work units is completed without packing results to send.
I found this message on log:

Is there a way to produce the results files and not throw away all the work done?

Thank you for the suggestion. I already supposed that I could erase those directories without "datain" subdirectory.

Just another thing to reduce the space on the disk.
I read the project downloads one work unit for cpu, I have a dual core cpu so it downloads 2 units and allocates about 1GB for unit. If I hacks the sched_request_climateprediction.net.xml file setting max_cpus to 1 the project work with 1 work unit at time?
And I have to set to 1 all three parameters in that file?
Last question, I have to wait to terminate current 2 jobs before modifying the file?

Hi everybody.

I just discover that the CP project is using about 2.34GB of space on my disk.
I found that a lot of data is stored on disk for future computations, but I cannot occupy all that space for boinc projects, so I found into FAQs a procedure to delete unsused data files (http://www.boinc-wiki.info/Saving_Or_Deleting_CPDN_Result_Data_Files), but it seems that is pretty old, for example directory trees are totally different from the ones of the examples.

So, as I still want to participate to this project, I need a procedure to periodically clean unused data files. Can someone help me?
