Help - Deleted Work Units
Posted: Wed May 07, 2003 4:08 am
OK, using Console & Electron Microscope. Have handled 12 WU on one of my systems, 4 of which have been deleted ('nil points'!).
Crazy thing is it runs and 'looks' normal, but when it gets to 100% nothing happens. So I took to shutting down & restarting, at which stage the unit was deleted. Now I have been watching the log on that system more closely, and I noticed the early warning is that actually sometimes the FAHconsole stops writing to the log, even though EM reports Frames clocking as usual. When I catch the 'no log' early enough (before 100%) and restart, it restarts as per EM reporting.
An example log extract is below (only blank lines editted out): everything fine up to 90 frames, then nothing in log (till I manually shut down). In the meantime EM reported frames counting up to 100, at which stage nothing happened, so I shut down (& lost my points ) Any offers?
