No Workunit Progress
Every YoYo workunit over the past 4 or 5 has not run on my PS3. It counts up in time but shows 0.00% progress over the entire runtime. I then need to Kill the WU as it is doing no work and taking up valuable resources. I have tried to restart the PS3, reset the project, download new work, etc but none of these have helped. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Tim

OK, I had a workunit last over 16 hours so I was worried and at the same time the PS3 was silent, usually the fan is running part of the time. I'm not too familiar with Linux so how to I "see" if the Workunit is using CPU? something like windows task manager...yoyo hat geschrieben:Hello,
there is no progress shown on PS3. The progress is always 0%. But the wu is crunching. The wus are currently very long and can take also on a PS3 up to 7h. Since it is a Linux on PS3 you should see with top the the wu is running and consuming CPU.

- open a command prompt (usually called "terminal", "shell" or "bash")
- enter "top"
You should get a detailed list of running programs, threads, memory and cpu usage.

A quick update. My current YoYo WU has now been running for 24 hours on a PS3 which is nearly 4 times your estimate. Is this still considered normal? I would hate to be wasting so many cycles if not.
Thanks!

The message log shows nothing out of ordinary. I am running PS3 Grid also on their USB Build. I was thinking I might try to install linux on the HDD and see if this helps.yoyo hat geschrieben:Can you post the boinc message log and the output of the top command?

As I said before my knowledge of linux is minimal but when I look at the top command I see 3 processes of the Crunch_1.01 (each about 33% CPU) and one of Crunch 1.02 (about 97% CPU). Everything else takes a few cycles every once in awhile. I don't know how to get a log though, so let me know how to do it if you want that
Hi,
I do not have a PS3. But my understanding would be that there should be only one Cruncher running, not 3 in parallel. This one which runs than internally uses all 7 processors. There should be the possibility to open a terminal or shell on the PS3, as usual under Linux. Open it and enter "top" and paste the output. And aso the boinc message log would be interesting.

Re: No Workunit Progress
The duration of an OGR-wu is not predictable - current wus last up to 40 hours, so everything's okPoorBoy hat geschrieben:I have this WU running on a PS3 for close to 10 Hours now, is this normal ... ??? The Wu it ran before this one only took about 25 minutes to run ...
Re: No Workunit Progress
Okay, I was just wondering because from looking at other PS3's that have run WU's about 6 or 7 hr's was the longest one's I seen.
