Re: No tasks available?

It was the waiting on one more of these 'No tasks available' threads, [leaving MCM as the remaining not cried out about ;o]. And just FAHV, no, no no FAAH either

32973 World Community Grid 5/3/2015 6:30:32 PM No tasks sent
32974 World Community Grid 5/3/2015 6:30:32 PM No tasks are available for FightAIDS@Home - Vina
32975 World Community Grid 5/3/2015 6:30:32 PM No tasks are available for FightAIDS@Home - AutoDock
32976 World Community Grid 5/3/2015 6:30:32 PM Tasks are committed to other platforms

Lest technicians spring to attention, there's going to be a rude awakening come Monday morning.

Re: No tasks available?

SekeRob, I take it that the CA's don't have any means of alerting the techs - other than via your "special/behind the scenes" forum board.

Re: No tasks available?

No tasks available for any project ATM. Upcoming Pentathlon probably responsible for that.

253186 World Community Grid 5/3/2015 12:26:32 PM Sending scheduler request: Requested by user.
253187 World Community Grid 5/3/2015 12:26:32 PM Requesting new tasks for CPU and miner_asic
253188 World Community Grid 5/3/2015 12:26:35 PM Scheduler request completed: got 0 new tasks
253189 World Community Grid 5/3/2015 12:26:35 PM No tasks sent
253190 World Community Grid 5/3/2015 12:26:35 PM No tasks are available for Uncovering Genome Mysteries
253191 World Community Grid 5/3/2015 12:26:35 PM No tasks are available for Mapping Cancer Markers
253192 World Community Grid 5/3/2015 12:26:35 PM No tasks are available for The Clean Energy Project - Phase 2

253194 World Community Grid 5/3/2015 12:26:35 PM No tasks are available for FightAIDS@Home - AutoDock

Never thought I'd see the day when every project at WCG would be out of tasks at the same time. sad

Re: No tasks available?

One would think they would have monitoring on the queues to alert the techs through text or email. Especially since IBM sells a whole suite of Tivoli monitoring tools such as IBM Tivoli Composite Application Monitoring (ITCAM) that is designed for just this type of event... I don't get it. It's like the storage resource shortage that causes them to run UGM at a lower priority. IBM manufactures disk storage. How can there be a shortage?

Re: No tasks available?

How does an upcoming Pentathlon, whatever that is, cause a dearth of available work?

Cheers coffee

When you have large teams around the world competing for tasks they go fast. WCG is the #1 effort for this year's Pentathlon.

IBM sold that (disk storage) years ago.

Re: No tasks available?

The reason UGM is running at a lower priority is because we can not send results fast enough to the researchers after they are validated on our system. Before we optimized the results for this project, I had estimates that the project would use upwards of 900 Petabytes. With the optimized output for UGM1 I still believe it is going to take 500TB of storage. We do not have that type of storage available to our project on the backend. So we try to run the project at a speed that we can consistently return work to the researchers. This allows us to stay within our project budget.

As for the monitoring software, we use various custom monitors to alert us to potential problems. I do not have experience with ITCAM. I will try to take some time to investigate what capabilities it has and what it can provide towards our project.

Thanks,
-Uplinger
