I need to know how to susupend accepting new tasks for a few weeks. I need to leave and be without my computer for a while, and all the tasks have their deadlines. I do not want to accept tasks and then fail finishing them before the deadline. I just want to finish calculating the tasks now under work and send them away, without accepting new tasks.

Small note to Fred. Just installed 1.47 and noted the "Read config file" has (cc_config.xml) as singular reference. As of about 7.0.52 the Read config is really plural 'files' as it also reads in any app_config.xml files that exist in the project folders. cheers Coelum Non Animum Mutant, Qui Trans Mare Currunt ID: 49044 · |

Ok I went to v7 and noticed a lot more Miss'es than under v6, I'm using BT v1.47. Thought someone would like to know. SETI@home 7.00 setiathome_v7 (cuda42) 26jn12ab.17393.3343.15.12.234_1 00:14:31 (00:02:10) 5/30/2013 3:43:49 PM 5/30/2013 3:43:49 PM 0.05C + 0.5NV 14.93 Missed Play MULE, 42 is irrelevant ID: 49436 · |

Oh and with Boinc 7.0.64 and BoincTasks 1.47, BT said the pc here had 121 wu's in Seti and that currently is impossible, at other times it would say there were 116 wu's, then back to 121, so I uninstalled 1.47 and installed 1.46 just to see what would happen, instead of 121(Projects) and 99(Tasks) wu's, I was seeing only 99 wu's on both screens, the problems I've noted were/are commented on by Fred.E at Seti in one of the v7 threads if you don't believe Me, I'd put a link up, but Seti seems to be down right now and has been since 9:13:49pm on May 31st 2013.

Tasks gives all the WU's, including the completed and is recent Projects gives you only running and waiting to run. The values are only an indications and may be 15 minutes old. As it is derived from the history count that isn't updated too frequently. I don't want BoincTasks to take up too much CPU time, so some things are a compromise.

Well I'm having less problems with 1.46 than with 1.47, like half the time under 1.47 I generated a 'missed', under 1.46 that almost never occurred. But whatever you say, I'll just stick with 1.46...

Yeah, I just installed a faster fan, 3900rpm vs 3400rom and a Corsair TX850W psu w/a single 12v rail with a 70A capacity, if there is any downclocking to be had, I'll be able to eliminate the psus, then it would be down to the GTX580 or the motherboard, hopefully nothing uneventful happens. Sometimes I wish PCs weren't so dang complicated. I had to rewire a 3 pin fan extension cable to make a Dell wired fan work, at the very least the red and black are flipped from what they would be on a PWM fan...

Your thread is a magnet for new Arabic spammers. The one above was one. The one before that as well. All gone now. ;-) ID: 49502 · |

1.52 July 2013 New: Rules: Snooze GPU event. Changed: Rules: Wallclock time rule now uses a graphical scheduler.

Fixed: Settings show column: Project/Tasks/History, check was sometimes set, when the column was hidden. Fixed: Settings show column: Project/Tasks/History, check was sometimes set, but the column stayed hidden. Fixed: Project column now checks for integrity, e.g. a double column.
