1) Message boards : Number crunching : ATI generate some invalids and nVidia not (Message 57179) Posted 6 Feb 2013 by Bill Brumbaugh Post: Just one more post and then I will wait for a reply. Looking over some of the failed workunits I discovered that it does not seem to be an ATI or AMD issues as I found a bunch of others with Nvidia cards and Intel cpu's that are having errors. It definately seems to be just that application. I count 4 others on this workunit that errored out. http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/workunit.php?wuid=299078972 Workunit 299078972 Bill Brumbaugh \| log out name de_nbody_orphan_real_CHISQ_1356215205_558387 application MilkyWay@Home N-Body Simulation created 21 Jan 2013 \| 12:35:11 UTC minimum quorum 2 initial replication 3 max # of error/total/success tasks 3, 9, 6 errors Too many errors (may have bug) Task click for details Computer Sent Time reported or deadline explain Status Run time (sec) CPU time (sec) Credit Application 386004668 459250 21 Jan 2013 \| 12:44:45 UTC 21 Jan 2013 \| 20:40:33 UTC Completed, can't validate 15.08 9.41 0.00 MilkyWay@Home N-Body Simulation v1.04 386239118 495021 21 Jan 2013 \| 20:50:20 UTC 24 Jan 2013 \| 12:38:12 UTC Completed, can't validate 7.53 5.52 0.00 MilkyWay@Home N-Body Simulation v1.04 387885762 362466 24 Jan 2013 \| 12:38:25 UTC 5 Feb 2013 \| 12:38:25 UTC Timed out - no response 0.00 0.00 --- MilkyWay@Home N-Body Simulation v1.04 396167838 29021 5 Feb 2013 \| 12:45:39 UTC 5 Feb 2013 \| 17:18:45 UTC Error while computing 150.13 0.00 --- MilkyWay@Home N-Body Simulation v1.06 396321853 496301 5 Feb 2013 \| 17:23:08 UTC 5 Feb 2013 \| 17:25:41 UTC Error while computing 0.00 0.00 --- MilkyWay@Home N-Body Simulation v1.06 396325924 351074 5 Feb 2013 \| 17:29:53 UTC 6 Feb 2013 \| 2:14:19 UTC Error while computing 0.00 0.00 --- MilkyWay@Home N-Body Simulation v1.06 396611703 479231 6 Feb 2013 \| 2:22:03 UTC 6 Feb 2013 \| 4:15:12 UTC Error while computing 0.00 0.00 --- MilkyWay@Home N-Body Simulation v1.06
2) Message boards : Number crunching : ATI generate some invalids and nVidia not (Message 57178) Posted 6 Feb 2013 by Bill Brumbaugh Post: Typo from the end. Just to let everyone know I think it is an ATI issue: "This computer crunches all my other projects fine and I 5 others with AMD cards" Should read "This computer crunches all my other projects fine and I have 5 others with NVIDIA cards that do not have errors"
3) Message boards : Number crunching : ATI generate some invalids and nVidia not (Message 57177) Posted 6 Feb 2013 by Bill Brumbaugh Post: Yes there seems to an issue with there is an issue with the code on the N-Body Simulation on ATI/AMD for me as well. It does not seem to be with the GPU either as all of my MilkyWay@Home v1.02 (opencl_nvidia) and MilkyWay@Home v1.00 complete without errors.

My cpu is an AMD X4 640 and it is overclocked a bit but I am sure that is not the issue. This computer crunches all my other projects fine and I 5 others with AMD cards and rarely ever have any units error out. The other thing that makes me think bug is all the workunits with errors are almost exactly 150 secconds long. Didn't really think much about the errors till I read this post so I decided to give my feedback. I guess I will just uncheck the N-Body app untill they get it sorted out.
4) Message boards : Number crunching : strange message (Message 25923) Posted 18 Jun 2009 by Bill Brumbaugh Post: I had the same problem too Paul. Everything was great. My Rac was up to 5000 on one card. Then I upgraded t0 6.6.36 and all new work unit downloads stoppped. Same type of error. "Bionic is on 99.7%" "Workunit will not finish in time 99.8% needed". Went back to version 6.6.31 and now all is well again.:)
