Post: OpenIFS 43r3 Perturbed Surface, has been added to the application list, what does it mainly cover? Thanksit's a modified version of the default OpenIFS in which the surface parameters, instead of the atmospheric ones, can be modified. There are two large (~3000) ensembles planned for this month where each member of the ensemble has slightly different parameters. I'll ask the scientists to write something to the forum about it. Thanks for that Glenn, appreciated. Conan |

Post: I would like to join the cpdnboinc-dev project to help out but it appears to need an invitation code and it's not mentioned anywhere that I could see. I think I tried a long while back but could not get a leg in, but memory a bit fuzzy about that. My Linux computer was upgraded a while back to 64 GB RAM (for other BOINC projects requiring 1 or more GB of RAM per work unit, with 32 GB and 24 threads I was maxing out my memory). An invitation would be nice but perhaps they might have enough testers? So I might still not get in. Thanks Conan |

Questions and Answers :
Unix/Linux :
Fedora 36
(Message 66063)
Posted 6 Sep 2022 by Conan
Post: I am unsure about downloading lib32 bit libraries for Fedora 36 but having Fedora 25 then updating to Fedora 36 when I got a new computer (I used the old hard disk rather than the NVMe drives in the new machine as everything was already on it), has not been a problem and ClimatePrediction works fine. The 32bit libraries were installed on the older Fedora ages ago and are still accepted with the later spins. Conan |

Hardware requirements for upcoming models
(Message 65912)

Post: Over at Primegrid you can set how ever many cores you want to use to multithread, from none to as many as you think you need or can spare. A Seventeen or Bust (SoB) work unit takes 400 to whatever hours on a single core but this drops to less than 100 hours using 6 cores. I have a ryzen 3900X with 12 cores and 12 threads but limit Primegrid to just 6 cores for multithreading due to the large number of other projects that I run at the same time. The n-body work units from Milkyway use 16 cores and I can't seem to change that but as they only run for a few minutes to an hour or so it is not a problem, still have 8 other cores. At Yafu@home you can set from 1 to 32 cores due to their work unit types. Conan |

Post: Just for information. Hoping these do come to main site soon. One of my Open IFS tasks from testing had the following on the task page. The application has been placed on the Application Page, just awaiting the actual work units to go with it. So something is moving. Conan |

Post: Do you know if they run faster as 64 bit or are they the same? If the same then what is the benefit? Is there any reason (that you know of) why they need so much memory? More expansive models, more parameters or something else? Still keen to try some OpenIFS work units. I have 64 GB of RAM on my AMD 5900X (12 cores/24 threads), as only 4 work units seem to be downloaded at any particular time (in the last two attempts to get work) I should be OK, (I run a lot of other projects as well, so this limits how much work can be downloaded).

Post: Just spied this change on the server site OpenIFS 43r3 OpenIFS 43r3 ARM Perhaps something in the wings? I have not done any OpenIFS work units before so would like to try some. OpenIFS did not have the 43r3 after its name yesterday. Conan |

Post: G'Day AndreyOR, Don't know about unusual version as I got from the BOINC Web site, it is classed as a "Pre-Release" Linux version. The previous Linux official version on the BOINC wed site was 7.4.25 which is running on my other Linux computer and may need an update one day maybe (it prioritizes work a bit better than the new one I reckon).

Post: [quote]7.16.6 probably came from a package installation. When I installed BOINC from a package on Ubuntu 20.04 that's the version I got. On 22.04 the version is 7.18.1. For Linux machines, according to the site, it's recommended to install BOINC using a package manager. I know this is getting off topic, I used a package manager version only the once. Found it stuck pieces of BOINC every where, had trouble finding and maintaining it that way, plus all the permission problems (why do they insist on a separate user to control the BOINC install?), also installed as a service which I then had to learn how to control from the command line. So any other Linux install I have done or updates have all been from the BOINC website and it all works fine, all in one place (still a small permission problem but that is easy to fix). So if it recommended for Linux users to use a package manager I don't agree with it. Conan |

Post: I was wondering if there is a problem with the Trickle Server. I uploaded a trickle at 4.43am Australian time and it is now almost 10 Hours later and it still has not shown up on my account. The Zip file uploaded without an issue. I will have some more due soon and don't want to lose them as well. So just wondering where it is. Conan |

Post: I expect the event log would make interesting reading. Last contact was today 25th July 2022, so not turned off. He has another computer ID 1517679 with same problem and over 6,100 failures. But he has this computer ID 1517434 that is connecting, downloading and processing work, it does get errors but he does get credits as well as it sends back trickles. Conan |

Post: I just downloaded 4 SM4 work units to see if my missing library problem (libnsl.so.1) has been fixed and I can get some successful work done. I found that they were all re-sends from others who failed with a different missing library libstdc++.so.6 Computer 1460610 - Bartosz Toczek only started having this issue with SM4, no probs with AM4. Computer 1531595 - Anonymous has 79 failures all SM4 Computer 1532546 - Science United has 30 failure all SM4 And of course I also got Computer 1517479 - Eric Korpela over 11,000 failures and I thibk they could be permission problems? but I am not sure he isn't showing that library as missing.

Post: @Jean-David Thanks geophi, I decided to check back on a few WUs I ran back in May 2021 and found they had failed for the same reason. I had Fedora 31 at the time, but apparently I did not check as to why the work units were marked invalid. If I had of checked I could of fixed this issue last year and had 4 successful results now instead of 4 failures. I will have to check why things fail a bit better it seems. You live and learn.
