I think something happened, I must have been dreaming of something "failing" as its 230 AM here and I woke up and thought it was 6AM and started working, I see the hard disk is full in testnet, full of errors, and 2 of my vultr Prod nodes have "Emergency Failures" (this is on the vultr side, they said Non Recoverable), LOL, start of a great morning. 

I need to filter out the log to see whats going on.

Glad you got it fixed, I will compile the new version and wait a day before I deploy the other 9 nodes. It takes me about 2 hours to start all the nodes. No problem, it's just part of testing.

Did something happen? There was only one masternode in the list and I had to restart all of mine.

Block 9218 was not signed, time difference compared to previous block was >15min.

It is possible. On my phone calculations run only on charger, so not more than 6-8 hours/day so it is only "for fun".
Here are some stats: avg. speed 2.27 GFLOPS, avg time/task 9 hours with 4 hours cpu time, avg. credit/task 65

I stopped looking at the GLOPS because it doesn't make any sense if you compare the numbers to other processors. Only the benchmark MFLOPS made sense but it could change depending on what the computer is doing at the time of the benchmark. So you say you have 4 cores running with each task earning 65 credits every 4 hours. That would make it so you need 4x Galaxy S7s running at the same time to match the referenced server.

Let's all stop mining on the wallet and see what happens. I have one miner turned on that doesn't have a CPID associated with it.

Mike, I have ARM based Galaxy S7. I run rosetta with 4 cores. I tested 8 cores too, but phone was too hot it seems that 6 cores will be fine too. But my phone has 4GB RAM.

Per my calculations right now, you would need 4~8 more recent android phones to match the computing power of a dual Xeon E7-4820 server which currently runs about $1,000USD used.

Now you would save a lot of power, each phone uses about 5W compared to the server mentioned which probably uses about 350W. If you had 8 phones that would be 40W, about a 10th of the power of the server, That alone is a $27 different in electricity cost per month. In one year you would be spending $324 more on the server. It might be work looking into a phone and tablet mining rig.

Looks like I've been alternating with someone else signing blocks from 9186 - 9190. Are you not allowed to sign 2 blocks consecutively? I have also confirmed that the miner works on a wallet that has a CPID tied to it and does not mine on one that doesn't.

I forgot to delete the wallet from my controller instance when I made the clones so now it looks like I can mine with all the other instances as well. I did delete the wallet on one of them to see if it would mine, it would not mine.

Wow thats a lot.  Sweet.
So you would be one really with an extensive getboincinfo.  Do your rewards look OK when you add all the RAC together in getboincinfo, your magnitude is probably 500-700.  Mine is about 350 (now that it has been declining daily due to the increased participation).

Can you explain all the items here briefly? Togo can use this information to add to the wiki. Like why is the RAC number different compared to the BOINC RAC.

ah, yeah. It seems that just half of them, 4 out of 8.

Thanks man. Trying to figure out which device is best for Rosetta.

I believe the problem is fixed.  Everyone must upgrade though.  Please upgrade to 1090f.

Windows is now rebuilding.

Rob, I just finished updating my 10 nodes.

None. Rosetta does not work on ARM on Linux:

13-Feb-2018 20:43:01 [Rosetta@home] This project doesn't support computers of type arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf

Sorry, I meant your android device. It is also an ARM device.

Some more info about Rosetta on ARM platform. I was able to run Rosetta@Home on my Samsung Android tablet (ARMv7) with the app from the Google Play Store!
But it seems that Rosetta@Home does not support ARM on Linux (e.g. Rapsberry running Ubuntu Linux), only Android.
Some other Boinc projects do support that, e.g. Einstein@Home.

Logs from the same ARM Linux machine:


11-Feb-2018 20:20:15 [Rosetta@home] Scheduler request completed: got 0 new tasks
11-Feb-2018 20:20:15 [Rosetta@home] This project doesn't support computers of type arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf

11-Feb-2018 20:38:34 [Einstein@Home] Sending scheduler request: To fetch work.
11-Feb-2018 20:38:34 [Einstein@Home] Requesting new tasks for CPU

This list of projects shows what platforms are supported by what projects, ad it seems that ARM+Linux is not supported by Rosetta:
https://boinc.berkeley.edu/projects.php

Do we have some contact on Rosetta@Home devs/admins? If they support ARM on Android, I do not see a reason for not supporting ARM on Linux, it must be just a server setting...

Hi, could you tell me how many cores your using on your ARM device for Rosetta? Thanks.

1.0.9.0b-Mandatory Upgrade for Testnet

- Allow headless to participate in SanctuaryQuorum
- Enabled CPID botnet busting rule (requires each block to have signed and associated CPIDs with Magnitude in order to mine (and we enforce distinct CPIDs over 5 block periods))

* Windows is still compiling *


*** ALL : I have discovered that by moving up to version 1.0.9.0 and enforcing it (since we don't want to touch the Protocol Version in Prod) for some reason, the nodes are now interpreting "1090" as "109".  Therefore, I had to check in some code to allow the wallet to understand we are on 1090.  Please upgrade to 1090b in Testnet and please discard the last 1090 version.  (Otherwise, we cant connect).

Updating all node, not sure if some are compiling 1.0.9.0b though. WIll check after they are done.

it looks, that rosetta is too much for VPS. I'm testing it on one of my VPS and in last two days it freeze up 3 times. No respond from VPS and only solution was restart. Then it works for some time and freeze again.. I must find solution how to limit cpu resources Is here anyone else testing VPS?

Did you try something similar to this yet?
https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=3113

Or you can do this for any process:

It appears every project has a different credit system. Rosetta's credit system seems pretty good so far.
