Storage Capacity??

My Storage is labeled at .98Gb. What is this storage referring to. I have plenty of everything, and surpass this in all. I am wondering what this is talking about. If someone could help, I would be very thankful.

Re: Storage Capacity??

I'm not sure but I think I may have found how to fix this. I had the same problem. Login under your user name, go to Device Manager on the left of the screen, then -> Device Profiles and then select your profile from the list. In the next window there should be an option where you have the ability to change the amount of HD space allocated. Afterwards, save the changes.

Re: Storage Capacity??

I believe this refers to how much of your disk storage the program is using. It is the default. I think you can increase it by altering your Device Profile. I've just tried this myself. However, it has not yet updated the value in my client so I may be mistaken. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.

The client will update next time it talks to the server having completed the current task.

Re: Storage Capacity??

As others have mentioned, you can adjust the maximum disk space usage that the Agent should use by going to your Device Profile on the WCG web pages. The Agent will receive changes to the Device Profile sizes the next time it connects to the server.

The amount that you specify for the Device Profile is used to control the disk cache that stores the molecular files that are received from the server. Not all of the files the Agent downloads for each Workunit are different every time, and allowing the Agent to cache more files may reduce the amount that must be downloaded again in the future.

Re: Storage Capacity??

To maximize the points you receive at each submission, it is best to increase the storage to the highest allowable amount you can.

Cheers.
