future core 17 WU?

[PantherX]

On a fresh installation of V7.4.4 on Windows, I am seeing a mixture of FahCore_15 and FahCore_17 (Project 9401, Project 13001) WUs on my GPUs (GTX 660 Ti, GTX 650). Maybe you can remove the client-type to see if you can get FahCore_17 WUs or not.

When was the last time a p8018 was downloaded? There was a note a few hours ago that they changed something this afternoon.

Please restart one of the clients and post the first few pages of the log.

Now it seems like everyone on the team using NVIDIA gets 8018. But everyone using AMD gets core 17. If no one got core 17 it would be consistent somehow. But now I`m not able to understand what is going on?

No mather what version of the V.7 client we use when folding on NVIDIA, core 15 is all we get.

OK so your are saying to Kill the 3 I now have running and delete my work and cores and then restart my computer and this might fix my below issue?

OK I Did This And I Got 3 More Core 15 P8018 With client-type = advanced

NOW I Will Do The Same And DELETE "client-type = advanced"

OK I Did This And I Got 3 More Core 15 P8018

OK NOW WHAT?

Can your be targeting accounts to receive only Core 15? or is it all random?

One Week. 7 Days in a row now that I am getting ONLY CORE 15 GPU Projects.
And I have only completed 3 x 11 33 total projects for 2,089,791 Credits.

Stop deleting work units. That's not what he asked.

Please note that there is a technical reason behind this. On Windows, Nvidia GPUs (Fermi or better) can successfully fold FahCore_15 WUs and also FahCore_17 WUs (exception being Maxwell until the issue is resolved). However, newer AMD GPUs using the newer drivers are unable to fold on FahCore_16 WUs and generates errors. Thus, they are assigned FahCore_17 WUs since they can't fold FahCore_16 WUs. Hence, you see FahCore_15 WUs being assigned to Nvidia GPUs until the temporary shortage of FahCore_17 WUs is resolved.

Do note that on Linux, you can only get FahCore_17 WUs on Nvidia GPUs.

...Can your be targeting accounts to receive only Core 15? or is it all random?...

AFAIK, you can't limit certain donors to certain Projects. The WU assignment is random but based on few factors like; OS, Client version, Hardware, Client/Slot settings. Once those details are received by the Assignment Server (AS), the donor is assigned to the Work Server (WS) which provides the best possible match between the requirements and availability of WUs. Do note that there are Server side settings too which are taken into account by the AS and/or WS before the WU is assigned, like Project Priority.

I absolutely did NOT say to delete any work units. I did say post your log and you have not done that. I guess it's time for me to stop trying to helping you.

[jimerickson]

fold what you get.

[kiore]

fold what you get.

I agree, these units need to be completed and people dumping just mean they come around again.. and things are delayed, for the sake of a a few days lower PPD.
Having said that, I just got my first 9401 since last weekend on an NV win7 setup so some are about.

[Joe_H]

The WS for 9401 is back up finally after going down over the weekend.

Now I am back on with core 17 on my NVIDIA's. So is the rest of my team members. Got some 8018 to finish before all my NVIDIA`s are chewing core 17 ones again.

[VijayPande]

Great

OK Then what do you want me to do 7im

Restart the client with out deleting any WU, and post the first few pages of the log and see if he can help.

Thanks Bill, I will try that next time I get a P8018. Still getting Core 15 but not P8018.
