GPU WU shortage? 18.188.125.154?

Post by ajm »

Since at least 24 hours, I haven't had all GPUs active simultaneously. At least one, and up to three (total 8) don't get jobs for hours. It goes like this:

Code: Select all

12:58:17:WU01:FS02:Connecting to assign1.foldingathome.org:80
12:58:18:WARNING:WU01:FS02:Failed to get assignment from 'assign1.foldingathome.org:80': No WUs available for this configuration
12:58:18:WU01:FS02:Connecting to assign2.foldingathome.org:80
12:58:18:WARNING:WU01:FS02:Failed to get assignment from 'assign2.foldingathome.org:80': No WUs available for this configuration
12:58:18:WU01:FS02:Connecting to assign3.foldingathome.org:80
12:58:19:WARNING:WU01:FS02:Failed to get assignment from 'assign3.foldingathome.org:80': No WUs available for this configuration
12:58:19:WU01:FS02:Connecting to assign4.foldingathome.org:80
12:58:20:WARNING:WU01:FS02:Failed to get assignment from 'assign4.foldingathome.org:80': No WUs available for this configuration
12:58:20:ERROR:WU01:FS02:Exception: Could not get an assignment
I also see that the server with the most OPENMM_22 jobs (aws3.foldingathome.org 18.188.125.154) is online but in the grey zone of https://apps.foldingathome.org/serverstats and its assign rate is 0.00/hr.

AWS3 is in the process of being decommissioned. A quirk of the server stats page is that it will report available jobs even for an inactive server. In this case the "available" WUs were generated when the previous Gen WU was returned, but never assigned because the server was made inactive so they could pull the completed data off it.

If any of the projects on that server need more data, they will get moved to a new server and configured to continue where they left off. Usually in cases like this they come out with a new project number.

Thank you Joe_H! It looks like the issue is resolved: all GPUs are now folding.

It is my hope that new GPU projects will be developed now that the spring break plans seen at many Universities is reaching completion.

A bunch of COVID Moonshot units were released.

Yes, they have been. They are coming from a different server - 54.157.202.86.
