I have a rig folding and the status says

"5000/5000"

It has been at this state for three hours now.
What's up?? :confused:

All it takes is a small power glitch and most of the clients will stop, mostly due to loss of network connection.

Never............no wait.......Always check your task manager, if it isn't pegged at 100% somthin is wrong;)

 
There is also a small glitch with some protiens when they finish the run.
Around 1 in 500 will just hang at that point.
A quick restart will solve the problem.

Luck.......... :D

Yes, I see that fairly often unfortunately. That's why you need to pamper the SMP boxens a bit to make sure everything is running smoothly.

 
So I have a question on this.

Is there a way to automagically determine if a client is "hung" and then have the system terminate and restart said client? If we're not able to check/monitor on a fairly regular basis, we could lose production because it is in a "hung" state.

 
It's doable but pretty hard. You need to create a program which check the processes and if one or more processes is idling, start a script to restart everything. The restating is doable with a batchfile (I have one for my laptops at work since the wifi is failing 2-3 times each day so I restart them each 6 hours no matter what) but the process checking is only doable with a real program in C with Windows API calls.

Could you not do it via the log file? I mean we all know about our standard time frame per 1% if you could setup a routine to compare current time to last routine if > 30 minutes run batch?



 
log file might be a heck of a lot easier than Windows API calls. But this is still not a trivial matter.

I'm sure if we put the request out to the general public, someone would be able to come up with a routine that everyone could implement.

I for one would LOVE a solution. I've got a box that dies every couple of hours due to network issues. It is on wireless and it just loves to hang.

I need to try that solution again after I fix my network DHCP issue. I think when I tried the loop back trick I was having issues with DHCP and made it look like the Loop back was causing issues when now I think this was not the issue.

All this technology is great - when it works like its suppose to! There are *some* days (not many, mind you) that I wish I didn't have anything to do with computers. I guess it stems from having to deal with other peoples computer issues all day at work.

Regardless, you'll get it worked out and be back up to full throttle soon!

Yeh....

I have a BS degree in Finance. I was taking a minor in info sys. I took my first CCNA class, got an A but quickly said to myself: There is now way I want to do this for the rest of my life.

Now I'm a Financial Advisor and computers are my hobby :cool:
