1) Message boards : Number crunching : Doesn't work under control of MS Netmeeting? (Message 41843) Posted 5 Jun 2007 by opernal Post: sounds like something is wrong. You've hidden your computers so we can't see whether there are any clues in the results that have been returned etc - can you unhide them? Otherwise, try detatching/re-attaching. Danny I paste information about this computer at following. ------------------------------------- IP address Show IP address Domain name sqlserver Local Standard Time UTC +8 hours Name sqlserver Created 1 Jun 2007 14:41:47 UTC Total Credit 0.00 Recent average credit 0.00 CPU type GenuineIntel Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 2.80GHz [x86 Family 15 Model 2 Stepping 9] [fpu tsc sse mmx] Number of CPUs 4 Operating System Microsoft Windows 2000 Standard Server Edition, Service Pack 4, (05.00.2195.00) Memory 1023.42 MB Cache 976.56 KB Swap space 2462.79 MB Total disk space 9.77 GB Free Disk Space 3.02 GB Measured floating point speed 1240.61 million ops/sec Measured integer speed 1077.37 million ops/sec Average upload rate Unknown Average download rate Unknown Average turnaround time 0 days Maximum daily WU quota per CPU 100/day Results 4 Number of times client has contacted server 3 Last time contacted server 1 Jun 2007 14:56:28 UTC % of time BOINC client is running 100 % While BOINC running, % of time work is allowed 99.9928 % Average CPU efficiency 0.984551 Result duration correction factor 1 ---------------------------------- Thanks

3) Message boards : Number crunching : Doesn't work under control of MS Netmeeting? (Message 41815) Posted 4 Jun 2007 by opernal Post: I'v install boinc on a remote computer under the control of netmeeting. But which confuse me is BOINC manager does not show any progress under the "Task" tab. All the progress are 0.000%. I'v set the option to "always run" and the usage of CPUs have reach 100% in Windows task manager. But it seems not work. Now a whole day had passed but I could not found any reports post by this computer. Why? It is a bug? btw. I use "Service Install" and input the CORRECT administrator password. Not familiar with Netmeeting, but there are other "remote control" options available: You could try VNC. BOINC Manager does allow remote control of other hosts http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/RpcAuth BoincView http://boincview.amanheis.de/ is also great for managing remote hosts. I installed VNC. But it does not take any effect. Maybe it's not the fault of remote control software, but the BOINC itself. Headache now.....

5) Message boards : Number crunching : Hide computers (Message 40993) Posted 15 May 2007 by opernal Post: click here for your rosetta specific prefs, then change the third line down to NO. then the update prefs link. it might not be immediate, but will happen Found it! It is. Thanks
6) Message boards : Number crunching : Hide computers (Message 40991) Posted 15 May 2007 by opernal Post: Where is the option to hide computers? I found everywhere but no results. Thanks. BTW, Maybe it's the last time you can develop into my computers. :D
7) Message boards : Number crunching : Install 64bit OS can improve performance? (Message 40893) Posted 13 May 2007 by opernal Post: Thanks. It's seems a good way to keep in 32bit OS until boinc have already optimized for 64bit. Actually there is a beta release of BOINC supporting 64 bits. But I don't think a lot of projects has an application, that utilizes 64 bits. Actually I've only heard of one, and I can't remember which... ;) The improvements from writing a 64 bit app is just too wee to be justified. A lot of apps could use some general optimization (like for SSE, SSE2 and so forth) first. To me it seems like the 64bit systems right now is most about being able to support more than 4gb of addressable RAM. :). 64 bit system prefer a large memory than performance.

10) Message boards : Number crunching : Rosetta affect system performance ? (Message 40024) Posted 29 Apr 2007 by opernal Post: When running rosetta at background, I found my 3D MAX rendering speed slow down a bit. From 31s to 33s at a simple scene. It's about (33-31)/31 = 6% slower down. This test was run on my PC which has Prescott 3.2G CPU, 2G DDR2 Memory. Two rosetta threads echo consume about 100MB memory. I think it could affect system more seriously if you only have 512MB memory or less.
11) Message boards : Number crunching : Anyone could give more details about RAC? (Message 40021) Posted 29 Apr 2007 by opernal Post: Seems our country has block this site. Now I'v got the details by proxy. :) thanks all.
12) Message boards : Number crunching : Anyone could give more details about RAC? (Message 39989) Posted 28 Apr 2007 by opernal Post: Newbie Q&A thread gives some general infomations about RAC. An URL "http://boinc-wiki.ath.cx/index.php?title=RAC" is given at the end of the post. But I cannot visit that page. Anyone could help?

14) Message boards : Number crunching : After Restart BOINC begins with 0 % (Message 39979) Posted 28 Apr 2007 by opernal Post: I'v got the same problem. All the processing task return to 0% which have been calculated for hours after system restarted. What a bug!!
15) Message boards : Number crunching : How to running rosetta on PC without Internet connections? (Message 39976) Posted 28 Apr 2007 by opernal Post: A lots of not powerful PCs , and some powerful servers(Intel Xeon MP 3.66G * 8, 12G Memory). All these computers are isolated, which cannot access Internet directly and indirectly. The only way exchanging data is USB device. Now I feel like it is impractical to run BOINC on these PCs. But do these servers can be any use? Because there's few applications running on it, and the usage of all CPUs is close to 0%. I think it is wasteful. thanks for answering my questions.
16) Questions and Answers : Getting started : PC without Internet connections can be useful? (Message 39949) Posted 27 Apr 2007 by opernal Post: It can be done, but is not trivial. You basically have to move files around. The Rosetta deadline to report results is presently 10 days, so it means moving files around at least every 10 days. If you would like more specific ideas on how to go about it, I suggest you post to the Number Crunching forum. Thanks! Have post to that forum yet.
17) Message boards : Number crunching : How to running rosetta on PC without Internet connections? (Message 39948) Posted 27 Apr 2007 by opernal Post: We have a lots PCs which havn't Internet connections. How to running compute program on these PCs with BOINC? Anyone could offer more detail operate infomations on it. thanks a lot.
18) Questions and Answers : Getting started : adding more PCs in my account can result in a lower average score? (Message 39941) Posted 27 Apr 2007 by opernal Post: Both should go up. The average is like a speedometer, it is a rate of credit granted. The total only goes up. Thanks a lot.
