Thanks for the replies.
----------------------------------------I'm not running any Athlon or x32 systems so this part won't be applicable. I've also not received enough units as of yet to only crunch HTSB on the processor, it's been a mix of HTSB and Zika at any given time. At this moment I would put the AMD link as the causation as "inclusive". I did get 3 T350s from the 17th validated, and have a lot of WU in pending validation. I'm going to run it to the end of week and see how the validation results are. I'll report back the results then.

I also run a mix. I have never run HSTB exclusively on any of the machines. The past 6 weeks or so they have been running along side FAH2.

Just a very brief and final follow-up since most of the results are now in:
-----------------------------------------No invalids were seen at all for the 0xxx units. -For the 3xxx to 4xxx units, the invalid rate was above 50%. So not a 100% invalid rate but still high.

Hi,

Just had a number of invalids - again, only on AMD - Intel servers are fine.
Here's a snipped of the log: Result Log Result Name: HST1_ 014045_ 000035_ MC0007_ T350_ F00072_ S00019_ 0-- <core_client_version>7.2.47</core_client_version> <![CDATA[ <stderr_txt> INFO: result number = 0 INFO: No state to restore.

"Why the invalid?"
----------------------------------------Even "invalid" is better than no HST work units at all. These are my last work units received. 27-Sep-2017 04:17:59 Computation for task HST1_013586_000014_AC0015_T325_F00056_S00023_1 finished 27-Sep-2017 18:28:47 Computation for task HST1_013586_000008_AC0015_T325_F00038_S00023_1 finished  |

How are invalid's better than no work units? The project gets no value from an invalid.

It's all about clocking up time, for some

How are invalid's better than no work units? The project gets no value from an invalid. They indicate that the project server is alive and trying to send out work. No work units indicate that the project has died and no longer cares. |
