41) Message boards : Questions and problems : Boinc use only one of the two GPU (Message 48401)

Did you modify the correct cc_config.xml file (the one generated by BOINC in your data directory for the <exclusive_app> instructions)?

Then you'll have to ask at the project that created the screensaver application (I assume SETI@home;-).

The system is headless...

Does that imply it running in service (Protected Application Execution) mode?

That would prevent GPUs from being recognized by newer BOINC clients.

Don't think you can do that on Windows, just Linux.

You can, you just can't use any GPUs in service mode.

46) Message boards : Questions and problems : Project Identifiers (Message 46758)
Posted 13 Dec 2012 by Profile Gundolf Jahn
Post:
I also noted that both have different cross project identifiers.

That's the culprit!

From the BOINCstats FAQ:
Why do I have duplicate/split accounts in the BOINC combined stats?

The cause of this is the CPID, Cross Project IDentifier. Every project assigns a new user a CPID. It is partly based on the email address you used to sign up, the other part is random.

The CPID is used by BOINCstats to identify a user across projects.

Whenever you sign up with a new project, you'll get a new account on BOINCstats because the CPID is new.

What to do to make sure you'll end up with one BOINCstats account:

  • Use the exact same email address for every project.
  • Run at least one system with all projects, or one system with project A and B, and one system with project B and C. If there is a project that runs isolated from the other projects, its CPID with never line up.


When you join a new project, this project assigns you a new CPID. This CPID can either change to the same CPID as the other projects, or the other projects change (one by one) to the new CPID.

It is impossible for me to manually edit your accounts to create one account. It would take to much time too do this for everyone. Just wait a while, and your accounts will line up automatically.

One last thing, which is not too important, but nice for the stats: use the same username across projects, otherwise you get a username like 'Al Bundy @ SAH / Al Bundy @ Predictor / A. Bundy @ CPDN'.



As for the reason, see also Cross-project identification at the BOINC wiki.

If you added a project using an account manager, you'll have to remove it the same way (or to stop using the account manager locally).

Thu 15 Nov 2012 02:46:00 PM MSK | | OpenCL: ATI GPU 1 (not used): Tahiti (driver version 1084.2 (VM), device version OpenCL 1.2 AMD-APP (1084.2), 2048MB, 0MB available)

As already mentioned on the Einstein boards, it might have to do with the 0MB available. Does that change if you ignore the other device?

Nope, one slash too many. As Jorden wrote, it's:

There is no cc_config.xml by default. Look for client_state.xml; with windows, the data directory is hidden.

The path to the BOINC data directory is also listed in the BOINC event log after a restart.

Post:
E.g. <start_delay>300</start_delay> will make BOINC wait 5 minutes, or 300 seconds, before it starts running applications.

I don't think that's what Richard meant. As I had to be told numerous times by JM7 ;-) the delay has to occur before the BOINC process itself starts running, not the project applications.

Post:
As soon as I boot up my computer, there are four instances of setiathome_6.03_windows_intelx86.exe running, that are maxing out my processor.

BOINC is designed to do exactly that!

Post:
In the Projects tab (BOINC manager advanced view), select "No New Tasks" for each of your projects. When back from holyday, select "Allow New Tasks" again.

If you are using an older version of BOINC, you'll have to report uploaded tasks by selecting "Update" in the Projects tab. The newest versions do that automatically when in NNT-mode.

Gundolf
