Hi.
----------------------------------------As the heading says i let Ubuntu update the kernel this morning and now HCC will not run, it's staying at zero run time it was fine yesterday other projects seem to be running fine them being. DOCKING POEM ROESTTA I will have to abort the tasks i have now as there not going to run, i will switch to FAAH, HCMD & HFCC to see if they are going to run, here's hoping.

I've processed at least one HCCC WU since the kernel upgrade and it went okay.
Before I installed the kernel upgrade, I suspened Boinc, installed the upgrade, restarted Ubuntu, then resumed Boinc. Is this what you did? |

Is this what you did? Hi codes. Yes i ran the update after a cold start up in the morning before Boinc had been started, which i always do anyway. I have a FAAH task & a CMD2 task running now they both seem o.k. so far, i might try reticking HCC later to see how it goes. [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Aug 22, 2010 6:55:52 AM] |

I have run this upgrade my usual way, i.e. without stopping anything non critical, then rebooting when convenient.**
----------------------------------------And I have had no particular problem either before or after rebooting. ** "when convenient" for this particular one was related to checkpoints of two CEP2 WUs which were running at this time.  |

Hi P.P.L.
----------------------------------------I've done multiple, automated, kernel updates and after the rebuilding of the grub file took very long, sometimes a whole day [when BOINC is running too]. Your log indicates your system was extremely busy with something else and BOINC does not like that [it's actually weak in that department] so when you observe such restarting of tasks, best is to stop BOINC in the terminal window with (for Lucid Lynx with Synaptic package provided client). sudo /etc/init.d/boinc-client stop then do the top command to find what eats the CPU time and let it finish and do a normal system restart to clean up. The new client 6.10.33 and up has a field whilst processor usage is less than X % where when on one hand you've set BOINC to crunch 24/7 100%, you can tell it to pause when NON-BOINC processes cause a system load of X percent. The default is 25%, but tests have shown that is way to low and 75% OK. You have to set the Activity Menu to Run based on Preferences for the processor prefs to take effect. BOINC will btw run before signing in as a daemon/service. You can configure to delay the computing. I've set it to 45 seconds with a line in the cc_config.xml (see FAQ in Start Here forum) The moniker for Help Conquer Cancer is HCC. We also have HFCC, so using HCCC will lead to confusion. PS: From the log it looks like HCC was the one running on the busy core. If that restart happens 100 times Let us know. edit: corrected as per post Ingleside, below

PS: From the log it looks like HCC was the one running on the busy core. If that restart happens 100 times within a short period [I think an hour], BOINC considers the job to be bad and aborts it with "too many exits". There's no time-period on the restarts, but instead it's 100 restarts without reaching next checkpoint.  "I make so many mistakes. But then just think of all the mistakes I don't make, although I might." |

Of course, I keep bringing up that hour... it's just the count as the "too many exits" limited text implies.
----------------------------------------Let's see if we can convince Fred of BOINCTasks to add the counts to some column given it's tallied somewhere (already shown for transfer attempts). Will tell the nervous cruncher if it's time to take serious measures before it's too late... not something you'd want to have on a job that's already been running in the 11th hour.

Hi.
I've ran a couple of FAAH, HCMD2 & HCC on this rig with no more problems & all validated. Just one of those things, i guess.  Thanks. |
