TPU's WCG/BOINC Team

I PM'd him back on the 11th March and he was last seen on the 12th March on TPU... I hope all is ok with him and such

 

[Bones]

I too hope he's OK.

 

[phill]

Hopefully Norton will be back soon. Miss seeing him about but I understood he had some family issues when I started doing the pie stuff for him, so I hope it's getting sorted and better for him

At some point, today, while I was at work, this happened.

The date format the UK uses is day/month/year whilst Americans use month/date/year - also WCG uses the American format.

That's just being in the UK then lol I do wonder why there is any difference at all??

 

[hat]

Cause Americans do some things differently just to be different. Except driving on the wrong side of the road. That's just totally bonkers.

I do wonder why we are on the right but hey, it works for us lol

Free-DC is unfortunately running very low on funds (< $60) and I can probably only justify sustaining this for a few more months. Bandwidth alone is >$100 per month. I've been running the sites for almost 20years now. If you are interested in seeing this continue, please consider donating via the link on the left side.

Hi guys

Apologies for the lack of updates and such, I had some sad news last Sunday as my Grampy passed away and on the Saturday before, I had Isabelle with me for a week so I've had next to zero time to do anything but I've got the data and such, just never managed to get it updated on the forum..

Please bare with me and I see if I can get everything updated hopefully tonight but hopefully over the next few days Being back at work might help as if I'm quiet I'll do some then

I hope all is ok and has anyone seen or heard from @Norton at all? Is everything ok with him?

I've also seen the notice for the Free-DC, is there perhaps something that TPU could possibly do something with??

Sorry to hear that. I hope that he had a painless sleep at the transition.

I wish I knew sadly we never made it down in time before he passed away but I can but hope...

 

[thebluebumblebee]

Thanks for the update @phill , and sorry for your loss.
I'm not concerned about @Norton . His daily output assures me that he's tending to his rigs, but he's just too busy to talk with us.

 

[ozkisses]

Sorry to hear @phill and don't apologise for the updates. I can live without pie (and seeing everyone else doing better than me )

 

[phill]

Thanks for the kind replies guys, I'll see if works not so busy tomorrow I'll get things updated a bit

@thebluebumblebee , that's kind of a nice way of putting it but I do like seeing Norton around..

It's been getting rather warm here of late, so I hope this 16" fan I've got helps the issue... 7 rigs in a room pulling 2000w isn't easy too keep cool

Anyone want to cool their farm? It's half price!
Koolance ERM-3K3UA rack-mount water cooling system - $500

If this is in the wrong section I would be happy for someone to direct me to where it should go.

I am hoping someone can help a lass out with the following:

I am running WCG on 3 computers, so know the issues is only on one currently and I have never had them before.

The Progress % and elapsed time column is continuously flashing on jobs that are running.

I have one task (HSTB) that shows Elapsed time is 1d 13:29 with 1d 13:38 remaining (49.9% completed)

I have never gotten tasks that are that long and never had the flashing before. I am unsure whether to let it go or uninstall and reinstall. I just don't want the tasks to be a waste of time if I have a real issue.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Is there anything in the event log?

 

[phill]

All updated everyone, that wasn't quick still with the misses chatting to me... 5 minutes peace would be awesome!!

That cooling system looks pretty decent.. I'd personally run three separate loops, with the triple rads there.. Temps are so much better under water....

If this happens, I've found that if you quit Bonic and then reload it or just restart the rig (more so important if you leave it on 24/7) it'll sort its self out. Had a task at work that was running over 3 days, restarted the laptop and it went from 36 hours or whatever it was to 4 hours and then finished in a few more hours after.. Sometimes they can get stuck and this sometimes is a nice simple fix. When you exit Boinc properly, it will 'save' the work units your doing, so you'll only use that one unit not everything

If you could let us know what the result it, that'll be great
