Hi.

I have a problem with one of my 4P builded with a H8QGI supermicro board and 4 opterons 6176 overclocked at 2652 mhz with Tear bios .

Indeed , i can not explain why my PPD has been divided by two after a simple reboot .:eek:

Indeed , normally my PPD with 8101 is near 12 minutes and now is near 21 minutes !!

Of course i didn't change anything .

It seems that my processors don't work at full speed because cpu temperature should be near 50 degrees and now is only near 42 degrees .

However we can notice that there are 48 working SMP cores .

In order to help my if you can , you will find attached a screenshot of my system .

Thanking you in advance for your help .

 
Try rebooting and resetting the bios to optimal defaults, then reset your OC through OCNG poweroff and reboot.
 
Thanks Grandpa .


I will test your solution next tuesday because i can not do it now .
Indeed, as i am not near the machine, i use teamviewer to observe my 4p system and of course i can not reboot without loosing control .

if anybody has another suggestion ?
 
Pastebinit is not installed on my machine .

However , you will find below the result of " fahdiag " command :

It appears you have something running in the background are you running system monitor or some other program. If so turn it off and your tpf should go back to normal.

It seems you have 2 clients running at same time.

Exit out your current FAH cllient, then issue the command:

ps -ef |grep -i fah6 | grep -v grep

If it returns something like:

(your_username) 34377 2120 0 Oct30 pts/0 00:01:27 ./fah6

- Then kill that process:

kill -9 34377 (your might be diff)

- Now, restart your fah6 client.

Hi.

your command returns me nothing so i suppose that i have only one client running .

Hi.

I have killed " mozilla " but i can not kill " Teamviewer " because i will loose the distance control of the system .

Anyway , i have always used teamviewer and never had such problem.

My main supposition is that there is a problem with the bios . I will try grandpa solution as soon as possible .

Thanks.
 
Even though I suspect that TeamSpeak CPU usage drops to about nothing when you aren't connected, you need to look into using ssh and PuTTY for remote access. You typically don't need GUI access on a folding box. To demonstrate the difference, here Is what fahdiag shows on one of my boxes even when I am connected to it:

top 5 CPU consumers:
59637 6391 54 thekraken-FahCo
60290 0.3 8 bash
99 0.0 23 watchdog/23
985 0.0 27 kworker/27:1
98 0.0 23 ksoftirqd/23
 
If you're sure there there are no CPU consumers that could mess with FAH, power-cycling
may be the quickest route to get you going.

Before power-cycling you could also run
Code: 
sudo ht-retries
and see what's going on in there (let it run for at least one minute before looking at Delta data).
 
Here is the results of ht-retries :

What does it means exactly ?

Indeed, i never understood the meaning of this command.:eek:

However , it seems that here is some problem .

HT retry is an event that occurs whenever HT-link needs to be reestablished.

Generally accepted number of retries is 1 per minute per link.

Current version of ht-retries (which I encourage you to use -- it's part of ocng-utils --
http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1677395 steps 18 through 22) refreshes
every 60 second and prints cumulative and delta (increments) HT-retry counters.

In simple words, if you see anything above 1 in the Delta section of ht-retries
(the current version, not the one you've used) after no less than 60 seconds
then things need to be looked at closely for possible improvement.

For instance:
Code: 
ht-retries (OCNG4.4)
Ctrl+C to interrupt, refreshes every 60s. Only non-zero values are reported.

It seems you have rebooted the machine on Fri Nov 8 09:06:43 CET 2013, did
problems start occurring then or before the reboot?

Also, note that there are 8101s that fold waaaay slower than normally. We do not know
why that is. If power-cycling the machine and resuming the unit don't help while diagnostics
check out, consider possibility of WU being just... slow (whatever the reason) and
monitor performance of next WU.
 
With this machine , i use only version 3 of OC bios .

So, i can't use ocng .

At the moment , i fold a 8103 and i have got the same slowdown of the machine .

So this is not a problem of WU.

My conclusion is that i must try grandpa's solution before further investigation .

Thanks Tear for your help . :)
 
The ht-retries from the new package work fine with any OCNG version as well as stock BIOS.
 
Is there some chance, you have a problem with memory? Are you using ECC of Non-ECC? Seems like you might be getting ALOT of errors.
 
He is getting quite a few HT retries but with the old version of the tool you can not tell if that was at boot or if they came latter, Jeanjean you need to do as tear sugest and install the new version of the tools.
 
With respect to TeamViewer, it will slow down Folding on an AMD 4P if you have an open session from one computer to another. It will not slow down Folding if you have closed the session. Running as a service in the background, TeamViewer is benign.

Is there some chance, you have a problem with memory? Are you using ECC of Non-ECC? Seems like you might be getting ALOT of errors.

Hi.

I am using Non-ECC memory .

Of course , it is possible that there is a problem with memory .

But at that stage, i don"t know.

With respect to TeamViewer, it will slow down Folding on an AMD 4P if you have an open session from one computer to another. It will not slow down Folding if you have closed the session. Running as a service in the background, TeamViewer is benign.

Hi.

i am using Teamviewer with all my machines and never had this sort of problem .

So most of those were on boot or prior to the last screen shot, It looks like none since the last screen shot, and I assume that was folding when you ran the test, so no real problem there. :)

I would say that a reboot will fix it, and if it gets a new WU before you get to it it may fix itself as tear mentioned earlier. It would be nice if you could run fahdiag after you reboot it or if it starts running right.

By the way tell toTOW that Grandpa says Hi. :)
 
Yes, i was folding since the last screenshot .

So this is a good news .

On the other hand, as soon as i reboot ( tomorrow morning normally ) , i will keep you informed about the result .

And of course i will say Hello to Totow for you .;)

We have got a small forum in France but sadly it is much less active than hardforum.
 
Hi.

I come back to you because i have done what Grandpa requested in his first post .

Indeed , i did a reboot , went into the bios and did a reset to "optimal defaults " .
After i reseted OC trough OCNG and finally applied OC again .

And now everything is back to normal ! See below .

Cheers ! :cool:


 
Happy to see it is back to normal. If you get a chance could you post a fresh fahdiag just to see how things are running and to see if we can spot anything that may have changed.
 
Here is a fresh fahdiag .

Hmm something is still amiss and I would bet you can do better looking at your vmstats something is still running in the background and stealing CPU cycles.

These 2 lines the ones I highlighted in red are your user (FAH) and System (other OS things) as you can see yours are in the 70 range for fah that should be in the 90 range and 30 for the system that should be in the 10 range. In other words your computer should be running 90% of the time on FAH and 10% of the time on other things.

The paste bin link below is 3 of my rigs running bigadv the first is running an
1st 8101
2nd 8104
3rd 8105
As you can see they are all running in the 90 / 10 range
http://pastebin.com/jx8HKKwL

run (top) in a command window and see if it shows anything else running using a few % of a cpu time also run (vmstat 10) in a command window for a couple of minutes and post the results here we may be able to shave some time off your tpf and get you a little more ppd. :cool:
 
Here are the results of " top " and " vmstat 10 " commands .

Please don't take into account Teamviewer_Desk because usually it doesn't run .

 
Well there are a couple of things you can do, Are you using the 4P as your main rig or just as a folding rig. I see you are still running 10.10, also is there any reason you have to have teamviewer running on it, you can monitor it with HFM from another rig teamviewer is using a bit of cpu time. Also using the GUI is using a bit of resources (Xorg) you can ssh in to do most of the things you want to do on a Linux 4P folding rig. Anyway here are the things I would do.

#1 install 12.04 and use fahinstall from here http://hardforum.com/showpost.php?p=1037125470&postcount=2 fahinstall has some OS optimiseations that help fah out. If you are old like me you may be hesitant to change due to having to learn something new.:D I actually thought I was the last person to give up and change to 12.04 from 10.10, the team brow beat me for quite a while to accomplish this feat.

#2 get rid of teamviewer and monitor FAH remoteley from another machine using HFM.

#3 use the GUI as little as possible or not at all you can go headless.

If you are using the rig for your daily internet machine #2 and #3 obviously will not be possible, #2 may be as far as changing to HFM vs teamviewer I do not know if HFM uses less resources or not when used for monitoring on the box itself.
Anyway at a minimum I would do #1 ;)
 
Hi.

Thanks for all these ways of improvement .

I will make it a try as soon as i have some time. :)
 
I come back to you because i have done what Grandpa requested in his first post .
Click to expand...
Grandpa will not steer you wrong.

TeamViewer. If you enjoy the simplicity of TeamViewer, keep using it. Unless you have an open remote session, it does not slow down Folding on a 4P when it is running in the background.
