FAHB: Exit Code 196: Maximum disk space use exceeded

Seeing them show in incidences. One task

FAH2_avx101121_000100_0044_026_0

Description on BFS:
EXIT_DISK_LIMIT_EXCEEDED 196

The amount of disk space that the task could use was more than the limit set to the task.


Edit: can't see by how much as no access to the [very] remote devices.

And what was the message in BOINC's Event Viewer?

Re: FAHB: Exit Code 196: Maximum disk space use exceeded

I have only two running on two machines, but including both the slots and the projects folders, they take less than 10 MB; quite modest. MCM is more like 50 MB for example.

Re: FAHB: Exit Code 196: Maximum disk space use exceeded

Don't know where you're looking, Jim, but started up a test machine for FAHB to find out. 6 running concurrent and all show 80-90MB peak RAM and 121-137MB peak VM.

The slot information has peak usages in a task files and the bound which are:

<active_task>
<project_master_url>http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/</project_master_url>
<result_name>FAH2_gl5243106-ls_000047_0011_024_0</result_name>
<checkpoint_cpu_time>80418.110000</checkpoint_cpu_time>
<checkpoint_elapsed_time>81073.072462</checkpoint_elapsed_time>
<fraction_done>0.980000</fraction_done> (98%)
<peak_working_set_size>93929472</peak_working_set_size>
<peak_swap_size>136560640</peak_swap_size>
<peak_disk_usage>1489273</peak_disk_usage>
</active_task>

<rsc_fpops_bound>14382708341723700.000000</rsc_fpops_bound>
<rsc_memory_bound>402653184.000000</rsc_memory_bound>
<rsc_disk_bound>104857600.000000</rsc_disk_bound>

Meaning tasks are going around that can exceed these values [albeit absent any reports, it can't be many... but then, no response from the tech side].

fpops is a time limit translation. Take the device benchmark and you'll be able to derive the number of seconds max runtime.

Re: FAHB: Exit Code 196: Maximum disk space use exceeded

I took a closer look at a FAHB-task.
The task started with 50 files and total 1,442,729 bytes in the slot-directory and added 2 files with every trickle up to a total of 68 files and totally 1,487,447 bytes = 1.42 MB where exceeding 100MB will error out the task.

The only cause I can think about is remnants of an old task in the slot that was used by the new started FAHB-task.

With BOINC client 7.6.1 this should be fixed. From that version on only empty slots will be used for new tasks.

Re: FAHB: Exit Code 196: Maximum disk space use exceeded

Per my previous post, in bytes

<peak_disk_usage>1489273</peak_disk_usage>

So your 1.42MB is close enough.

A non-empty slot belongs to the realm of possibles, the repair wingmen seen going valid i.e. not immediately reproducible.
