Hi,

I noticed that my stat page shows the below stats.
Active processors (within 50 days) 3
Active processors (within 7 days) 3

Problem is I'm only running 2 clients 1 gpu and 1 uni-processor. The gpu is on my main machine and the uni-processor is on an old box I put together just to run FAH. So the question is where did the other processor come from? I seen this happen a few weeks back, but it fixed itself so I did not think any more about it.

The log part below is from my gpu client

Code: Select all

[21:10:23] - Ask before connecting: No
[21:10:23] - User name: aracthebold (Team 52975)
[21:10:23] - User ID: 34C6
[21:10:23] - Machine ID: 3

and this is from the uni client

Code: Select all

[06:20:08] - Ask before connecting: No
[06:20:08] - User name: aracthebold (Team 52975)
[06:20:08] - User ID: 6F3F
[06:20:08] - Machine ID: 1

Not a big problem just wondering.

Thanks in advance.

Changing clients can be one cause of extra processors. Also, changing Machine ID can add to your processor count.
See: viewtopic.php?f=16&t=7412

Edit: Just as an example, these are my processor counts:

Active processors
(within 50 days) 23
Active processors
(within 7 days) 8

And I only have 6 clients running (4 uni + 1 SMP + 1 GPU)

HI,

the last time I restarted either client was 02/13/09 and I have not changed clients or machine id's. As I said no biggy just curious.

The processor counter in the stats page can get confused quite easily

It's not always accurate.

CPUId = UserID+MachineID

The S390 client is the nVidia one. The other two are CPU clients. Results are coming from the same IP.

Thanks toTow, I guess something happened on the old box to change one of the id's. As shown in the snip above the machine id for that machine is the 6f3f one. I just checked the fahlog-prev and it has the same machine id 6f3f.

Thanks all for the help as I said no big dealjust wanted to make sure nothing funny was going on. THis thread can now be closed.

thanks
