New beta for type B

We have just released 150 work units for type B work units to be tested. This is using a new binary that will allow us to get stderr information when a work unit exit 29's. Also, it will have some improved checkpointing. Also, decreased IO for the log file that is created (result.out).

Re: New beta for type B

We do plan on running this same binary against type C work units when we receive them from the researchers. If all goes well, we will be then testing this binary against type A work units.

Re: New beta for type B

Thanks for the information, uplinger.
Does that mean, that no further DDDT2 work units will be distributed until the binary setup has been changed?

Thanks in advance!

Re: New beta for type B

From the parallel C-type thread in the DDDT2 forum:
We may wait a few more days to release some more type C work units. We are going to receive a new batch from them in the next 24 hours, but will be putting those into beta first to make sure they run on the binary enhancements explained in that thread.

Re: New beta for type B

I am going to put on hold sending out more type C work units. Type A will continue sending work and we don't have any new type B work units to send at this time. So these probably won't be sent until after the binary change if all goes well.

Re: New beta for type B

Thanks, Sek. This posting is about C-Types only.
My question is: If there is a Beta test on Type B and the Type Cs will also be moved to beta, may there Type A available this week?

Re: New beta for type B

Well I read it to encompass B-type too since B and C use the same binary.
...but will be putting those into beta first to make sure they run on the binary enhancements explained in that thread.

The A type is covered in Uplinger's last post above.

Re: New beta for type B

X-Files,

Thanks for the information. The few I got on my machine also have been check-pointing properly, but I am on linux, so having other who run different OS's help with the test :)

Thanks,
