Click update on the "Projects" tab should do it.

Click update on the "Projects" tab should do it.

Nope, that's what brings up the message about last time updated being yesterday. Odd.

Are you "oneguy", the one that retired today?

[TLD]

Did you click save at the bottom of the page when you changed your profile at WCG.

I'm TLD i used to fold here, and Base Camped here a while back.

BTW pinky, as you can see from my sig, that project ID did finally show up - so I'm not an "invalid user name" anymore!

yay!

(though I'm not sure yet what the WCG BOINC RAC stats represent)

"Results Average Credit"?

recent average credit, i believe. seems to be the popular stat amongst the BOINC crowd. dunno, i simply parse them and make them available.



the base camp connection... met both of you at base camp, at about the same time....

Hey, TLD, I thought it was you! I seem to remember a parrot avatar or something like that? Yeah, my mouse is starting to shy away from that "Save" button on the profile page, I've set and saved it so many times!

Anyone tried running UD monitor with the WCG agent? It doesn't seem to work right for me, it doesn't seem to be able to shut the agent down to start a new cache, so it can't switch slots. I can set up the caches, but I have to shut the agent down manually before I can switch to another cache slot. Though I must admit, I haven't yet seen if it can switch on its own once a slot's WU has been completed. We'll see.

Edit: Nope, it didn't switch on its own, so I don't know what's up. I'll just run the agent then, I guess. Maybe as a service with FireDaemon.

Anyone tried running UD monitor with the WCG agent?

Not yet. I like to get to a feeling for this "new" agent before doing any fancy stuff.

[j3pflynn]

MiniMax - Something is certainly different about the agent. Even using the utility vaio linked, I can't get it to run at 100%(frequently bounces down to as low as @50%). The only way it seems to be able to do it is if I run it as a service using FireDaemon, and set the service priority to one step above idle("Below Normal"). Which may not work out for me, it makes it more invasive/demanding. I'm surprised there are so many functional differences, with it obviously being the same basic agent as UD/Grid's.

[MiniMax]

It runs 100 % here on my Core Duo laptop (which translates into a total of 50 %), and I believe it was the same on my AMD 2600+ before I throttled it back a bit due to heat issues.

[pinky]

I recall there being a slightly different install procedure for UDMon on WCG...try vaio's directions here

[j3pflynn]

Yeah, that may be it, I don't think I un- and re-installed UD mon, just pointed it to the new program. I'll give it a shot tonight.
