Topic 191054

I run Boink with Climateprediction, and it works fine. Now, when I attached to E@H, no work has downloaded. I've tried update, no work. I've tried resetting and then updating, still no work. I've included my last twenty or so log entries below.

[EDIT]

On the project tab, when I update E@H, the status reads "Scheduler Request Pending" then after about 20 sec it changes to "Communication Deferred" with a 60 sec timer.

The buttons on the projects tab for E@H say: "Update, Suspend, No New Work, Reset Project, and Detach." Any help would be appreciated.

This is telling me your machine might think it's overcommited with the Climate work it has. It believes it can not do other work and finish the Climate job in time, so it is not requesting any work. If you want to force getting work, you can suspend Climate for a few minutes and some work will download, but it will still stay in Earlier-Deadline-First (EDF) mode and mostly work on Climate, but try and get the Einstein done in time.

Look for messages like:

Suspending work fetch because computer is overcommitted.
