Hello everybody,

I have 4 systems doing work for Einstein but under my profile I see only 3 systems.
The problem is, 1 system shares 2 systems. It looks like that 2 systems has the same ID or something.

How do I fix this?

Your thread title mentions 4

Your thread title mentions 4 computers.  Do you actually have 4 separate sets of hardware?

Your message mentions "systems".  So when you say that that "1 system shares 2 systems", what do you actually mean?  Do you have one set of hardware with two separate BOINC installations and was that intentional?

When you say "looks like ... same ID", have you actually checked the host IDs recorded in the BOINC state file (client_state.xml) for each of the two you think may be sharing the same ID?  BOINC gets really upset if it sees two different installations claiming to have the same ID.  It just forces a new host ID to immediately solve that problem.

Unfortunately, you need to give a better description of the problem before a better answer can be given.

 

Cheers,
Gary.
