Re: No new work from FightAIDS@HOME Phase 2

Work flow has resumed. I got 37 48 last night as a new year's gift. Heading for emerald level.

Cheers coffee

Re: No new work from FightAIDS@HOME Phase 2

Nice catch. I have Zika, TB, and FAH2 checked but still only got work from Zika. I send a request for more work several times per hour whenever a work units ends so they are at random times. Did you do anything special to snatch them out of the ether?

Edit: I only get work from Zika. My mind must have been in wishful thinking mode.

I haven't had any work from flight aids phase 2 for a wee while but I haven't had any work from TB in I don't know along. You must know the exactly time to ask the server for work

Sorry Speedy51. I edited my post above yours. I must have had a case of wishful thinking or maybe it is the New Year. :)

tmedve, currently I'm in "fishing" mode - where I've only got CEP2, FAH2 & HST selected "normally", and once a day, add in Zika - to "top up" my 1.5 day cache.

At hh:03 & hh:33, I've got a scheduled job to request an update - as that seems to be the times when HST WU's appear to be around.

With that configuration, I do quite often get a few HST & FAH2 WU's - but not all the time. Basically, if I do, I do (and I'm happy with my "catch", as well as shoving them to the front of my queue/getting them running), if not, then no worries - I'm still working towards my Sapphire on Zika.

Edit: Since I started my "fishing" expedition (14th Dec), my HST & FAH2 totals have moved up nicely;
FAH2 from 0:315:12:58:51 to 0:329:01:12:01 &
HST from 0:263:22:30:41 to 0:284:22:08:02 (with 36.06 hrs stuck in PV).

Overnight I have 4 of my 5 computers set to get only HSTB and FAH2 using the 03/33 scheduling technique that gb009761 explained (Haven't gotten any HSTB since 12/27). I received the FAH2 at 04:33 PST on one computer with the scheduled boinccmd and 06:00 PST on a laptop that is running without a scheduled boinccmd. 12 of those jobs have already been returned so I don't know the time they were received. I haven't received any more up to this point.

Cheers coffee

Re: No new work from FightAIDS@HOME Phase 2

Still trying for that 14 day TB badge...
gb009761 mentions:
At hh:03 & hh:33, I've got a scheduled job to request an update

How can I set up a scheduled job like this, please?

Running:
medium speed 2-CPU machines on Windows Vista and linux mint
netbook 2-CPU Windows 7, but this machine is not fast enough to return large TB units in a reasonable schedule

Thanks!

Re: No new work from FightAIDS@HOME Phase 2

On Unix/Linux box use crontab to set up a schedule to launch a command or script on a recurrent basis. On Windows box use Task Scheduler to do the same. I started a thread here to discuss the subject. There are bits and pieces of the how-to scattered about threads on HSTB.
