Re: No HDD. USB or HDD or SSD ?
Hi everyone,
A quick update. I managed to get several computers for free and I crunched with them for about a month but then the electricity bill was far too high.
I gave three of them away and they are being put to use and crunching at the same time.

I have now added many more machines to my bank but they are only crunching for one night a week (about 14 hours) before switching themselves off.

This has not been a problem in the past as with a 10 day report time, I come back to having 3 days to finish.

Now however, I am going to be away for 2 weeks and I can't rely on this. I am running a buffer of 0.01 days and I want these machines to report results straightaway rather than having 200 tasks crunched and then being reported as "Too Late".

I am only going to do this to those computers that need it to save on server load.

How do I do this and is there a guide? The search function threw up a stupid number of results.

Re: No HDD. USB or HDD or SSD ?
I was able to do some research and from the boinc wiki, it seems that I need to put this in my cc_config.xml file.

<cc_config>
<options>
<report_results_immediately>1</report_results_immediately>
</options>
<log_flags>
</log_flags>
</cc_config>

However, I cannot find the cc_config.xml file anywhere. Would I need to create a new one and drop it into the data directory?

Plz do NOT put that flag in the file, if you find it [it does not exist out of the box on Windows, so consult manual where to place, which is the BOINC data directory]. At least be very selective [use wisely] in terms of ''must have this not to miss deadline''. As you noted, WCG commonly gives 10 days to complete a result and [automatic] report clearing is no later than 24 hours after completion or as soon as a device resumes when later than 24 hours. The use of the flag increases the load to the servers. E.g. if a device completes 20 results per day, it will connect 20 times per day in addition to the connects to fetch work in backfilling the buffer. This when only 3-4 connections per day are needed with default buffer setting of 0.3 days and 1-2 per day if buffer is set to 1 day, when crunching 24/7.

In the case of only crunching sporadically as in your case, a connect of 0.00 and additional buffer of 0.00 is recommended. What happens then is ONLY if a task is completed, a new work fetch is initiated [which is fast] and a report is done soon as the result files are uploaded. This ensures there is no buffered "ready to start" work if the previous task has not finished. Only when BOINC detects when a core/thread goes idle will it go out to fetch a new task.

BOINC does have commands, see e.g. http://boincfaq.mundayweb.com/index.php?view=502 [also through the boinccmd tool], to shut down when a task has finished and abort any that have not been completed. Some reading and trial and error testing is required for this to make it fit your requirements.

NB: The above is broadly the behavior of clients 6.12 and earlier. In client 7 the behavior is different [more efficient in server scheduler loading terms ]. Here the client will auto report results e.g. in a 30 minutes period prior, where network or computing is scheduled to be suspended. Also it will combine fetching of new work with reporting, and if reporting/connecting is forced, will combine that with a buffer top up work fetch request. With over a 1 million results per day at WCG, anything to minimize server scheduler calls is helping. WCG will advice when it thinks that this client is ready for general production use at WCG (meaning, suited to be advised for upgrade at their large contributors in particular, banks, colleges, schools, corporations).

--//--

P.S. Sporadically crunching devices are most contributing when doing short run-time sciences. The present are HCC/C4CW/CFSW. Then when the device shuts down, there will be the least uncompleted task time in limbo.

If you're planning to fully shut-down the computers during your 2-weeks away, it's recommended to set "no new work" and run-down the cache beforehand. In v7 with "no new work" selected, the results will be reported immediately as they're finished.

Re: No HDD. USB or HDD or SSD ?
Thanks for the input. Like I said, I don't want to put any strain on the servers and so I am only going to do this to the computers that I need to. It will be on the minimum of computers.

On these computers, I am using Boinc 6.10.60 and in a perfect world, I would like them to crunch for 2 days and then shut down for 12 days with no downtime and no tasks wasted. I already run these computers on the short tasks (CFSW at the moment).

If I set "connect to network about every xx.xx days" and "Cache xx.xx extra days of work" to 0.00, that will mean that the computer only downloads work as needed if I understand correctly. However, will tasks that are "ready to report" still be waiting? I want to minimse this.

Re: No HDD. USB or HDD or SSD ?
I didn't want to start a new thread, so bumped this one.
I have a few linux comps running and occasionally disconnect them from the internet for a few hours at a time.
When I reconnect them, I sometimes get a lot of WUs erroring out. What am I doing wrong?

Here is my log....

Re: No HDD. USB or HDD or SSD ?
If it were on the same topic, it'd be OK to bump this thread, but it's unrelated.

1. When disconnecting comp from the internet, set BOINC too, Activity menu, Network suspended. Do this first.

2. Then disconnect from your network (internet/lan)

Though, first you need to qualify what you mean with "disconnecting" to understand. Your Result log [click error link on Result Status page], would tell us more too as to with what jobs bomb [heartbeat, signal 11/15].

It's a known issue that if BOINC thinks, particularly on Linux with WIFI, that there is network, and there is not, jobs fail, even though it really only needs the NIC/Localhost over IP 12.7.0.0.1.

Re: No HDD. USB or HDD or SSD ?
Well, while away, we had a power-out, long enough to drain the UPS. Powered up, and failed my own rulebook, to first check if internet was up [the router had not reconnected], so here was BOINC not finding a lifeline AND 16:17 hours worth of crunching with signal 11, on Linux 11.10, with latest greatest test client 7.0.28. Yup, Berkeley still has not fixed that [fill in the blanks] bug, and most probably never will.

Re: No HDD. USB or HDD or SSD ?
Those Internet-connection-failure-generated errors are so frustrating and wasteful. sad
