GIANNI_ntl units crash on reboot. It happened on both windows xp and 7. The units were running fine, before the reboot.

Same here. If I close BOINC or just suspend crunching, these WUs crash on restart every time.

I've also experienced that.
These workunits don't make any checkpoints.

I'm running a GIANNI_ntl WU's now on W7x64. When I suspend and start them they continue from their last checkpoint. Did it a few times, no problems.
335.23 driver and CUDA 5.5 app. WU running on 2nd GPU.

Were you doing your stops and starts on a "xxxx"-GIANNI_ntl WU or an e"xx"s"xx"_e"xx"s"xxxxx"-GIANNI_ntl WU?

I hope you understand my nomenclature. The "x" is any number or letter.

It was the "xxxx"-GIANNI_ntl WU's that crashed, the others were good.

I should have been more specific the first time.

(No checkpoints made by GIANNI_ntl + my script looking for stuck tasks = computer rastarts in every 10 minutes) + GIANNI_ntl failing at restart = 33 + 31 + 17 failed GIANNI_ntl's

BTW I've suspended my script until these GIANNI_ntl's cleared from the queue.

Message 36012 - Posted: 30 Mar 2014 | 23:41:03 UTC

It might not be the right topic, but as I have detected it with a Gianni WU, I place it here:
Ultimately I do have poor run times, since the new climateprediction batch (EU and ANZ) arrived on the AMD system with my GTX670 card. I noticed that the fan slows often down, which made me curious, and I could see that on EVGA OC Scanner, the video card stops several times for short periods. On the other hand on the Administrator Panel (after ctrl. alt. del.) I am able to see that all of me cores are fully loaded. And it makes not a lot of difference if I stop one or two cores, all cores are 100% loaded. I always run with one core less or free for the GTX670. However under Process, I see acemd uses one core, 6 or 7 hadam3p_anz use the 6 or 7 cores. The strange thing is there are more hadam3p_anz which occupy the same memory space as the running ones and there are some with low memory usage, all of the latter do not run (CPU:00). I have not noticed those before.

Today I saw the following messages, please scroll down until you see the GPUGRID, the climatepredictions are only illustration, although it is the same massage:

I have to inform the following as well:
1) My mother board and CPU have burned (990FXA-UD and AMD 8150) and I had to replace them with the same motherboard newer bios and an AMD 8350, so I was expecting better run times and not poorer. With the AMD8150 all was easy cruising, I never had problems, all stable and the system used about 8 hours for Nathans.
2) After a long time I changed Nvidia Driver from301.42 to 332.21.

It stings me for several days, but the message I have seen for the first time today. Is there a connection between my slow run times of GPUGRID and the new batch of climateprediction (the combination has worked very well before), or the change of driver, or the new AMD8350, or does it have something to do with the “exited with zero status but no 'finished' file”?

Please comment!

If you click the task on the GPUGrid website, and view the stderr.txt at the bottom, and it says something like

Application version Long runs (8-12 hours on fastest card) v8.15 (cuda42)

Stderr output
<core_client_version>7.0.25</core_client_version>
<![CDATA[
<message>

or

<![CDATA[
<message>
The file exists.
(0x50) - exit code 80 (0x50)
</message>


...then it is a known bug suspending/exiting/resuming in the 8.15 application. Supposedly, MJH has fixed it in the 8.20 application (which has been deployed to the cuda 6.0 tasks on the Short queue), but for reasons beyond my comprehension, he has not yet deployed the new version to the Long queue.

Current GPUGrid applications:
http://www.gpugrid.net/apps.php

See here:
http://www.gpugrid.net/forum_thread.php?id=3621
... where I reported the problem over 6 weeks ago!

MJH: Still awaiting the fix on Long queue! :(
