Topic 218775

I recently added 2 machines to Einstein. The first pulled down some tasks.. around 200 or so, a combination of CPU and GPU tasks. Then I stopped getting new tasks, so I assumed the system was at its capacity. I then added the project on a second machine and that machine pulled down 12 tasks. Since then no tasks have been downloaded.

I thought maybe it was caused by me removing the CPU tasks that the first machine downloaded as I wasn't able to prevent them when first adding the project to my BOINC client because I was unable to change settings on the Einstein page until I had at least 1 point returned for a task. So when my first GPU task finished, I stopped CPU tasks and removed the ones I had downloaded.

Here is the output... I did a bit of goolging and also searched on these forums as well for the answer and while I found ones similar, I couldn't find one without a second issue listed like lack of GPU memory, or a high DCF. Neither of which I see here. Thoughts?

I removed the project and

I removed the project and added it again, and no tasks provided. I am not quite sure what the line...

Which applications have you

Which applications have you selected under the project preferences?

Host #12775713 did not request any work when it last contacted the project. Do you have other projects running on the host? Have you suspended any Einstein work?

Host #12775721 requested GPU work but the request was to resent. You need to wait at least 60 seconds between requests, don't mash the update button in Boinc.

I probably had it suspended

I probably had it suspended by the time you checked my last update. They are opened back up and the same issue it previously had. I unsuspended the tasks, it completed them and downloaded no more. Basically I got the initial 227 tasks and then nothing since.

 

I am only running one task type: Gamma-ray pulsar binary search #1
