Message 46680 - Posted: 9 Dec 2012, 10:32:42 UTC - in response to Message 46624.  

Here's a feature request for something I've been wanting to see for a long time. A section in the project properties screen that gives a bit of general client information, specifically about the below

1) <on_frac>0.976878
2) <connected_frac>0.747508
3) <cpu_and_network_available_frac>0.746664 **
4) <active_frac>0.999077
5) <gpu_active_frac>0.999077

and something computed there-off that expresses the total work cache that should be there. E.g. client v7 is set to have a Minimum buffer of 1.0 days, and additional buffer of 0.0 and is scheduled to only compute from 17:00 to 08:00. Based on this data, the total cached work should be 0.625 days per resource.

Alternate to putting these in the project properties screen, another good place could be extra columns in the computer tab as these are system wide values. It would allow an easy comparing of how much work is cached versus what there is supposed to be in theory, to determine if under or over-cached.

** Not looked up what item 3) represents as fraction, but the system is 24/7 computing.

thx for reading

David promised to include this in BOINC, so as soon as he has, I will implement this.

Fred,

Got an indication when you're going to add the red circled option that was implemented in 6.10.34? Keep loosing that setting as the override file written by BOINCtasks does not include the line. Think earlier clients will just ignore the line when included.

I just tested it with 1.45 and BOINC 7.0.28 it works, it may that some alpha BOINC version behaves differently.

Message 47460 - Posted: 22 Jan 2013, 16:09:58 UTC - in response to Message 47430.  

Just wondering if this would get a second, but would it be possible, rather than going to the filter menu and take your pick, to just select a task and than upon double-click get an instantaneous summary filter view? Kind of the opposite working to how actual selected filters work, at any one time doing a double click on a none condensed task of different status, to summarize that one and expand the previous summary back to normal. It's just that I occasionally just want to quickly see a total value that has accumulated.

thankx

P.S. 1.45.. guess it's in alpha only.

Double click is already in use to remove set the filter.
The menu is on the right mouse key as it is supposed to be in Windows.

Fred, how about a right click, summary option on the pop-up menu which the condenses a tasks status type of the line selected in the tasks view... one click less. Don't know if that jives with the double click to re-expand the summary.

I've not seen this behavior in Boinc Manager, there it just detaches.

-Changed: Sort computers in menu's and gadget.
-Fixed: Message highlight still case sensitive in the body text.
-Fixed: BoincTasks Mobile: IE 10 some minor errors in bt.html and graph.html, that didn't seem to impact the rendering.
-Fixed: BoincTasks Mobile: The buttons in the graph where not in line.
-Fixed: BoincTasks Mobile: The graph, did not always show all computers.
-Fixed: Proxy server dialog doesn't work on BOINC V 7, as V 7 protocol is incompatible.
-Fixed: If the regulator is active, only block the real localhost to manually modify the work buffer.
-Fixed: If BoincTasks Mobile was active, closing down was slow.
-Fixed: V7 client: Edit config.xml, use vbox_window only when the client knows about it.

Fred I just switched to Boinc 7.0.58 x64, when I start up BoincTasks 1.45 now I get a lost connection, so that means I have to start BoincManager and that goes away and Boinc 7.0.58 x64 starts up and runs in Boinctasks 1.45 with no problems in Win7 x64, this seems odd, am I doing something wrong? I'm running both the cpu and gpu on the anonymous platform, that would be Lunatics_x41zc_win32_cuda50.exe and AK_v8b2_win_x64_SSSE3x.exe. I also have a cc config that's like so:

<cc_config>
<options>
<http_1_0>1</http_1_0>
<use_all_gpus>1</use_all_gpus>
<max_file_xfers>24</max_file_xfers>
<max_file_xfers_per_project>24</max_file_xfers_per_project>
</options>
</cc_config>

Edit: 1.46 also does this too.

These versions have different startup parameters, David should put the old parameter back in, probably after 0.60.
After that it should work again.

You know that the anonymous platform has some serious issues on these BOINC versions, that could trash all your work.
