Limit cores/threads with taskset

Cheers I think that clears it up :)

Your computer reports 3.79 GB RAM:
https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/show_host_detail.php?hostid=10846970
This is enough to run XTrack.

ATLAS/CMS/Theory recommend at least 16 GB although they may run with at least 8 GB.

This is the recommended CVMFS starting point:
https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/forum_thread.php?id=5594

This option shouldn't be used (remove it, except if you know exactly why you need it):
CVMFS_CLIENT_PROFILE=single

This is recommended (as a private volunteer you should understand it as a MUST):
CVMFS_HTTP_PROXY="auto;DIRECT"
CVMFS_USE_CDN=yes



As for CVMFS_USE_CDN/Cloudflare/openhtc.io

https://openhtc.io/
openhtc.io is hosted by Cloudflare.
You don't need a Cloudflare account to use it.
openhtc.io distributes CVMFS/Frontier content required by ATLAS/CMS/Theory via a worldwide proxy network (hundreds of Squid proxies).
If you don't use the CDN CVMFS/Frontier get their data via "stratum-one-servers" (only few worldwide).
Getting the data from a CDN proxy close to your location instead of getting it from a stratum-one located far away is usually faster.

Thanks all! I thought we have local problems and not picking up jobs ... they are coming now.

The graphs are looking normal again. Thank you!

LHCb didn't send any BOINC work since end of 2018.
See here:

The post may include a hint why there is no ALICE BOINC app.

I wonder why it took nearly 1 day and >70 failed tasks to notice something is wrong.

What about the TRIUMF-LCG2?
They run about 90 atlas clients but no valid results for weeks.

Yes.

I do belive even though they are on differant os you still need to set boinc up like you would for multiple clients on the same os. Different dir, ports. Add the cfg for multi boinc in the main direction etc. I had the same problem

I'll be sure to so that next time.

The 1 thing that changed that could've caused this was running windows update for patch tuesday. However, I suspended all non-running tasks and let the running ones finish. Maybe something didn't close properly.

You're right. Seems like the automatic update for cvmfs was causing some issues this morning.

Hence, the conclusion seems to be: On Windows 11, the console button does not work with ATLAS tasks. still I would be interested in knowing whether all other Windows11 users make the same experience, or whether there is something that can be done in order to make the VM console show up and work.
Yes, I see the same on my Win 11 machine (Boinc 8.0.2). So I am using the VirtualBox Manager to bring up the console.
Did you installed the corresponding VirtualBox Extension Pack?
Yes I did.

Yep, all invalids seem to have this error:
