Can't download OPN GPU work units

As a relative newbie, I'm trying to understand why 2 of my hosts will not download OPN GPU work units. Both Win10 pc's. One has GTX1080, the other RTX3070.

Neither unit has any difficulty with other BOINC projects or with F@H.

It seems that something is causing scheduling back off with properties messages showing NVIDIA GPU task request deferred for XX:XX:XX - ofter several hours and continuing escalation. Both PC's run WCG CPU work units without hesitation.

In the interests of sorting this out, I have suspended all non-WCG projects.

I am not sure even if any OPN GPU work units are available to download - there does not appear to be any Server Status (like some other BOINC projects).

Any ideas??

Re: Can't download OPN GPU work units

When BOINC client asks for GPU tasks and got 0, then BOINC client goes into backoff delay to try again later. I can guess the World Communuty Grid server constantly runs out of GPU tasks every day.

Edit: Now that I checked my computers, I did sometimes get OPNG tasks, but most of the time it runs out of GPU tasks, gets 0 GPU tasks, and mostly does CPU tasks.

Edit 2: From time to time the server project pause OPNG tasks to change or fix something, can look at this topic for some information about this. https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg...311_lastpage,yes#lastpost
