I see you also reject out going to 171.67.108.105 ?

For LINUX this is:

Code: Select all

sudo ufw reject in from 171.67.108.105
sudo ufw reject out to 171.67.108.105
To remove when server works again:

Code: Select all

sudo ufw delete reject in from 171.67.108.105
sudo ufw delete reject out to 171.67.108.105
For WINDOWS this is:

Code: Select all

netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="FahClient workaround" dir=in interface=any action=block remoteip=171.67.108.105
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="FahClient workaround" dir=out interface=any action=block remoteip=171.67.108.105
To remove when server works again:

Code: Select all

netsh advfirewall firewall delete rule name="FahClient workaround"
Put them in a admin cmd shell and press enter key. It should say OK.

@foldy, thank you for the workaround. I think I'll keep this rule in place even after the server issue is fixed. Why? Because if the researcher(s) who own the project(s) on this server can't be bothered to fix the issue on a weekend, then all of my 41 slots of high-performance GPUs will go to other projects.

In the real world outside of academia, the individuals responsible for wasting untold thousand of hours of unrecoverable donor time would be unceremoniously fired. Sure, there is tremendous demand for computational biologists and data scientists, but two questions all potential employees emanating from Stanford PL/FAH should be asked by their prospective employers is this, "In your research work, did you ever have an instance where one of your computational projects became disabled? After being notified, what specifically did you do to remedy the situation, and how long did it take to get your project restored?" If the answer has any tinge of procrastination where they weren't on it like white-on-rice, and/or (as is the case here) crickets when it comes to notifying donors of the issue and what's being done to fix it, then move on to the next candidate.

Spending the better part of the weekend pausing and unpausing slots hoping to get a different server is a Whiskey Tango Foxtrot situation.

Workaround was found by SteveWillis but some say it is not working and others have success.

I'm not using any form of workaround and I've had no problem with assignments since yesterday ... a few "Server did not assign ..." but only one or two at a time and work continued pretty much immediately. I have not used the Pause/fold sequence once today.

Just to echo PS3EdOlkkola, there is a serious lack of respect and responsibility being shown in the handling of this issue.
I was ill at the weekend and literally crawling from room to room to sort out stuck clients and firewall rules - that's how seriously I take my 'responsibility' to donate to this project - I just wish there was some evidence of likewise at Stanford.
They have an amazing petaflop scale resource at their disposal, but just because they aren't paying for it doesn't mean it should be taken for granted.

I should mention that my older machine has also not had any problem at all. Only my newer machine had the problem. I mentioned it earlier but didn't bother to include my log.

I have been having trouble with the *.105 one of these servers for quite some time now. The server shows as not online, as in down, missing, useless, and more than just a little annoying, as this has been going on for over a day, maybe even longer than that. I have 6 computers with lots of gtx 1080s on them that keep running into this trash. I'm on #3 right now, and here is the log. Oh, well. I guess for this one, never mind. All the gpus are working now. It's just the cpu that is stuck. It was stuck on that one b4, but now it's reading all zeros. I just got the newest version of V7 on this machine, because it was having horrible problems. I'll have to go through the other 5 and see. But I'll still show you the log.

Post by TristanChen »

PS3EdOlkkola's sentiments are spot on. Letting scores of petaflops of research of computing power go to waste is a damn shame in any setting. Savvy donors will take their computing power elsewhere. The guys who keep coming back to prod for action are the guys who care... If you look at the top 10 folders in the world, nearly all of them have had their output cut from a third to a half. Some (like #2 folder in the world msi_TW) have quit entirely since the issue began.

Judging from my 24 GPUs, 171.67.108.45/171.67.108.105 is pretty much causing 100% of the issues, and has been for the past weekend. Even after implementing the firewall rules suggested on this forum, FAH still calls the server and stalls. I've had to manually shut down the client and restart multiple times (sometimes as many as 10 times) until the client stops calling 171.67.108.45. As of an hour ago, 80% of WU requests from my computers at home are still pointing to 171.67.108.45, and this appears to be especially the case for high-end Nvidia 10x-series on my most productive machines. Over an entire unsupervised day, the failure rate of these cards are basically 100%.

My father died of cancer 3 years ago. Since then, I've dedicated myself to becoming a FAH billionaire. Currently running 8 1080Tis, 2 1080s, 9 1070s, 1 1060, 1 690, 1 7970, 1 670, and baby r7-260 through several different accounts... And yes, to echo PS3EdOlkkola, this past weekend has been a whiskey-tango-foxtrot episode from the twilight zone.

Just reconfirming that 171.67.108.45/171.67.108.105 combo is still causing nearly 100% of my Nvidia 10x-series cards to stall this morning. It seems to be the default server for these cards, and is called 8 out of 10 times, meaning that over 24 unsupervised hrs folding slots with these newer Nvidia cards will stall nearly 100% of the time. For Windows 10, the previously suggested firewall settings did not fix the issue for me, and so I've had to manually shut down and relaunch FAHClient sometimes as many as 10 times before a different, working server is called. Really really frustrating. It looks like some of our top folders have already quit (e.g. msi_TW) and the output of nearly everyone in the top 10 worldwide have been cut by 1/3 to 1/2. Quite the fiasco.

Hello all

Although in my case the workaround from foldy initially worked for a full day yesterday (Thank You Foldy!).
However, now it's not working.
Did it over and over again and even restarted my system.
Did the pause and un-pause method and still being directed to that *105 server

I hope someone from Stanford be able to rectify this issue.

@Adam A. Wanderer 41 GPU folding slots plus 1 Intel Phi 7210 (256 CPUs) delivers between 34 and 35 million points per day when there are no issues. The last two days have been between 40% and 75% of the normal total, and only that high because I've had to stay on top of pausing/unpausing slots every couple of hours since Friday afternoon.

This whole episode is sad and disrespectful to the people that contribute to this project. Two questions come to mind:

1) Why do the volunteer contributors have a sense of urgency and those responsible for the project do not ?

2) These problems ALWAYS seem to happen over holiday weekends. Is everything so fragile that it fails when no one is there to hand hold the systems and keep them running ?
