Re: Computing for Sustainable Water Problems Thread

Hmmm -- strange result? On my returned result for cfsw_ 0130_ 00130546_ 2-- , I got a "Valid" and the other two got "Invalid". Is my PC BETTER than the other ones? biggrin Or does the validator like my result better? (The other two didn't error out -- I remember one was "Inconclusive" before receiving the "Invalid").

Re: Computing for Sustainable Water Problems Thread

The validator is on again and turned 8 more workunits invalid (on 4 different hosts) sad

I didn't got any invalid wu until the issue posted on Apr 21, 2012 3:39:07 PM.

I only had 2 now I have 2 pages of invalids and 5 pages of inconclusives. What's going on with this project. Thinking of heading up and moving out. Don't see much sense in wasting valuable resources until things get fixed.

With 7 pages of invalids, and 11 pages of inconclusives, I'm thinking the same thinking

The credit seems way off too, claiming almost the same credit for a 2.5 hour runtime wu as a 10 hr. runtime wu, and getting it too! (2.54 hrs runtime wu claimed/granted 87.2 / 88.8 vs. 9.96 hrs. runtime - claimed/granted 88.4 / 88.4). ?????? confused

Re: Computing for Sustainable Water Problems Thread

I agree with all the posts. I cut this project off this morning as I have wasted enough resources making invalids. Currenly looking for binary pulsars. Have not found any of them either but at least the wu's are valid. biggrin

Re: Computing for Sustainable Water Problems Thread

Ok,
I'm moved to a new house,
managed to get 3 comps up and running,
(one of them sitting on the bar fridge and the monitor
and keyboard on some ice chests, until I get my desks
in the basement).
But if this doesn't sort out by tom night,
I'll have to head to greener pastures.
One page of inconclusives (on my I7 2600K)
is enuf...

Inconclusive is very often a transitory situation before they get validated. Do not be worried if you have lots of them. Check how many of them change status over time.

All three repair jobs I got after the validator problems turned invalid. As a result my computer became unreliable and all single redundancy WUs I returned afterwards turned inconclusive. All of those inconclusives turned invalid as soon as the second task was returned.
Because of the new unreliability I received no further WUs with single redundancy, so there were no more inconclusives as well. And without single redundancy the validation seemed to work better - there were no more invalids.
Don't know what would happen if the machine became reliable again because I deselected the project...

Re: Computing for Sustainable Water Problems Thread

mweisensee, I'm building my own set of data from all the repair jobs I'm getting... lots. It makes no rhyme or reason which way the validated result falls [mine / yours / others getting the valid mark], suggesting that different CPU/OS families maybe produce enough a different result that quorums do not seem to be ''close enough'' to validate both or all 3, even seen it needing 4. To summarize: Is there another homogeneity issue e.g. between Intel xxx and AMD yyy etc? Techs can only solve, as when the requested addition of CPU/OS info to be added to the Result logs, do not allow us to self diagnose accurately or draw fact based conclusions. For the moment only had 1 inconclusive that started the run as initial distro one, else it's always been make up jobs I've had, but not too many where the outcome makes no sense [logs of all quorum members though matching and clean].

Fortunately, unless one went the exclusive route [anyone's own business if they want to], standard procedure has been followed to weight the distribution low at the start of this science so that multi-project crunchers do not get many in the mix. The experienced by now should know that it's folly to jump all cores on a new science release. Beta just will *not* bring out all the bugs. The *active* participating population is too small for that (those that beta and try to break the app, rather for the sake of clocking up badge hours).

P.S. No I have no 79 cores idling on Linux as I read in multiple places... I booted the one Linux host over to Windows ;P
