Shortage of WUs
FAH has been pretty much out of work to be done for quite a few days now. (The word "few" depends on a number of different factors, including which client you run, which OS you run, what hardware you have, etc.)
This is not the usual situation, but it does happen. By policy, FAH does not distribute work unless the completion of that work is scientifically important so they do not replenish the servers with WUs that have already been successfully processed by someone else.
New projects are on their way, but there is quite a bit of preliminary work to be done before a new project is ready to start distributing WUs. In the meantime, there are a few things that you can try, but there's a pretty good chance that nothing will work except to be patient.
If you get a message about an invalid address (0.0.0.0) and your client was working previously, that's your problem. Unless your OS is an old version which prohibits you from upgrading to the latest client, do that first.
If you're getting the messages
+ No appropriate work server was available; will try again in a bit.
+ Couldn't get work instructions.
you've got the same problem except it's a more recent client.
If you have the latest client and you're not using "advmethods" consider adding it. That gives you access to a wider selection of WUs, but they also might be less stable, so this may not be something that you want to try. In rare instances, removing that option helps. In either case, remember that you may enable it either as a specific option in the Advanced configuration ("Set -advmethods flag always?"), by adding it to the command line, itself, or by entering it in the Advanced Configuration under "Additional client parameters? " and to disable it, you must stop using all three of those options.
In the configuration settings, if you are configured to accept SMALL or NORMAL WUs, you can reconfigure for larger WUs.
In the configuration settings, the default setting for Max Ram is obtained from your actual hardware. If you have restricted it to a smaller value, consider increasing it.
Some new projects are being released but not enough to fill everybody's machine yet so the recovery will take time.
大意:
FAH已经严重缺粮,有段时间了。
虽然我们现在有很多新项目,不过我们还在测试中,暂不能上服务器。在这种情况下,大家只好耐心等待了。原则上,FAH坚守宁缺毋滥信条,没有经过严格测试的WU,我们不会乱上服务器。
如果您被AS分配到0.0.0.0这个无效地址,那说明您的客户端或系统有问题,请升级至最新版客户端,并检查防火墙设置。
如果您得到以下信息:
+ No appropriate work server was available; will try again in a bit.
+ Couldn't get work instructions.
您最好也检查一下客户端和防火墙。
如果您的系统没问题,请试下加advmethods参数,这样您有机会可以接到测试任务。
如果您设定的任务类型是SMALL或NORMAL,那么请您调大些,这样就可能接到更多的任务,不过任务越大计算难度越大。
如果您手动限制了内存使用量(程序默认使用全部物理内存),请您调大些吧。
虽然有些新任务会断断续续上线,不过还是入不敷出,就请大家耐心等待吧。
译者注:看来断粮要持续一段时间了,建议大家做好准备,参加备用项目。个人推荐WCG。 |
