Hello, As one of my project claims that no space left was available on disk, I did a check into each subfolders of Boinc's "projects" folder. It seems that Rosetta doesn't perform "house cleaning"!!! In the Rosetta's folder, it was left different versions of these files: minirosetta_1.xx_windows_x86_64.exe minirosetta_database_revxxxxx.zip minirosetta_graphics_1.xx_windows_x86_64.exe And a numerous *.dat.gz for which I'm not sure at all if I may delete them or if I should keep them... Each time you push a new binary version, do you think it could be possible that you check obsolete files and delete them? Same principe at each new WU for dat files. It's not a matter of disk space for Rosetta in itself, it's a matter of having a certain amount of disk space allocated for ALL projects, which is then SHARED between ALL projects. Regards. |

Each time you push a new binary version, do you think it could be possible that you check obsolete files and delete them? It does. Keep in mind that the project has 4 active application types at the moment. BOINC avoids deleting things that are likely to just require download upon your next task download. How many projects are you asking BOINC to maintain on each machine? What are your resource shares between them? And what are your disk usage preferences set to for the venue of the machine in question? Which BOINC version are you running? Rosetta Moderator: Mod.Sense |
