merge, credit and accounting

Hi all,
I found this thread https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread?thread=16521 which tells the same problem I have had. I have had to reinstall boinc number of times, twice for reinstallation/upgradation of the OS and hence boinc was out or because of issues with the BOINC implementation in my distro (Ubuntu). In fact the Intrepid cycle has been the first time that I have natively been able to work with BOINC in about a yr. that I have been involved.

My issue is the credit which was there for the earlier installations doesn't seem to have been merged to this one, so can somebody do the needful for me so I know truly where I stand.

Please lemme know if you need any help/guidance. Its a single machine throughout the whole thing. The only change has been recent addition of RAM/memory .

Looking forward to know/hear more.

You can't merge computers, but so long as you use your correct member name, all your credit will be shown.

So, there is nothing you (or anyone) needs to do.

Re: merge, credit and accounting

Hi,

as i have learned it is currently not possible to merge different computers / device installations in this project.

But i wonder why my points generated so far are being shown corretly on the WCG website (i.e. Accumulated Points) where as in in the BOINC manager it seems to be not. There is a difference of several thousand points between them.

Is there anything i can do about that?

Best regards,
Alex

Were all those points generated with BOINC or did u use the UD agent in the past?

WCG is going to convert UD points to BOINC points credits in the near future, including the UD agent earned points and drop the UD points system to only use the BOINC credits.

cheers

Re: merge, credit and accounting

Hi,

thanks for your quick reply.

You are right. I do have used the UD Agent though it must have been back in 2005 or 2006 respectively. I do not remember well.

Good news this issue is being worked on.

Best regards,
Alex
