completed task wont send

Post by Badsinger »

Hi folks. I have a completed task that wont send. It gets to 1.84 %, oddly the time I hit finish in FAHControl, and fails. I'll paste some of the log.

Welcome to the F@H Forum Badsinger,

Please note that Server 3.133.76.19 is under load so it might take a bit of time for the upload to happen. The best thing to do is to leave your client folding and it will automatically attempt to upload :)

Very noticeably so, my client just took 17 minutes to upload 64Mb to 3.133.76.19 with an uplink speed of 20Mbit/s. Is there no load sharing mechanism or are all the servers struggling? I seem to hit 3.133.76.19 every time. What would be very interesting would be some idea of the FAH server architecture, to better understand what is going on.

As I understand it each Project will dispense its WUs from one Work Server and the results need to get back to that same WS (sometimes via a Collection Server) ... So in a way a CS can load balance but the WUs still have to get back to the WS for the next WU to be reissued.

The Fireside Dev chat that was recorded gives a fair overview of the infrastructure and some of the challenges ... https://stanford.zoom.us/rec/play/7pV-d ... 6462356000

Thanks Neil. I'm guessing that fireside chat is fairly recent but can't seem to find a date stamp. I didn't know they happened so I'll work my way through this one and keep an eye out for others.

By inspection I can see that WUs are indeed uploaded to the issuing WS (or its CS - that seems to happen a lot) but the client starts requesting the next WU when the previous one is at 99% complete, so there does not appear to be any concept of waiting for completion before issuing a new WU. When things get bogged down I might be half way through the next WU assignment before the previous one has completed uploading!

You can set NEXT-UNIT-PERCENTAGE to 100 in the advanced control application. The default of 99 was established when there were lots of WUs that needed work and Donors complained that their machine was idle (briefly) between WUs.

As for it getting bogged down, I don't know if this will help. That depends mostly on how busy the server is (or the CS, if one is operable).

I have changed mine to 100, I think it is worth it due to the bonus points.

For me I tend to use the 99% default ... for the most part my tpfs are less than 60secs so not too much less of points/delay to the science, allows for a couple of failed assignment attempts and still get a new WU in time for the client to immediately work on next so that the cpus are kept under load and dont cool minimising heat cycling ... but I have the luxury of fairly high count CPU slots
