New Windows SMP client release
by kasson

We are excited to release a new Windows SMP client to beta. This is an *early* beta release--please expect some rough edges.
Read below for details:

*how to get it*
go to the download page: http://folding.stanford.edu/English/Download (substitute your language as appropriate) and look for the 5.92 client

***how to install it***
The installation process is a little complicated. PLEASE READ BELOW.
1. The initial release is a *replacement* for your current 5.91 SMP client. We will have a fresh install version soon.
2. Make a backup of a working FAH Windows/SMP installation. Install into your current SMP working directory
3. Unzip the 5.92 file in your test directory
4. Open a command prompt window (run as administrator if Vista)
5. run install.bat. This will do several things
.. a) install DeinoMPI. You don't need to do anything special here
.. b) create a "credential store" that DeinoMPI will use to authenticate the mpi processes. Important: do not use a passphrase here (just hit return for no passphrase and say yes, you're sure). I recommend encrypting the data and using the registry for storage.
.. c) add your user information to the encrypted credential store. This will prompt you for your username and password.
.. d) run the standard mpiexec -np 2 foo test application to make sure things work. On some WinXP systems, you may see a defective Windows Firewall dialogue box come up. The firewall may also ask you to unblock applications (this is a good idea).
Notes from the forum mods on the above process:
5.d) The Windows Firewall dialog box will pop up twice. The first time, you will be able to see and click Unblock for DeinoMPI. The second time, the pop up window is hosed. However, since the unblock button has a hot key, you can press alt+u to unblock the next item and make it go away. I checked my firewall exceptions list after unblocking both. The second pop up is for fahcore1.exe.
5.d.2) I found a different bypass. After having gotten the hosed windows many times in WinXP I went to Start + ControlPanel + SecurityCenter + WindowsFirewall. On the Exceptions tab I scrolled through the list of names, adding a checkmark to the appropriate boxes.
6. Start fah.exe as normal.
7. Please report problems to this forum.

*what's different in 5.92*
With version 5.92, we have switched to a different MPI implementation (DeinoMPI instead of MPICH). In our testing thus far, this new implementation is *much* more stable for FAH. Performance is roughly comparable, with perhaps a slight speed increase. But stability and reliability is what we're going for here.
DeinoMPI is backwards-compatible with MPICH, so your old core binaries will work. However, most of the benefits come with a new core binary. One is included in the install package; the client should also auto-download Deino-specific core binaries. Similarly, the mpiexec binary for DeinoMPI differs from MPICH.
Look for new Deino-specific features coming in the future.

*other notes*
5.92 does not currently support 64-bit Windows. This is something we will work on in the future.
As with 5.91, we do not yet officially support running 5.92 as a service. It is possible to do this, but it requires setting several dependencies, etc. Other FAH donors may have helpful hints here.

Thanks for testing!

new osx and linux v6.02 console clients to beta
by kasson on Tue Mar 25, 2008 6:30 pm

We are happy to release new versions of the OSX/Intel console and linux clients to beta. Version 6.02 contains one major improvement:
In addition to running with the -smp flag, you can now request a number of cores to use by using -smp <n>.

Several important notes:
Only projects using the A2 core support variable number of processes. The majority of our projects currently use the A1 core and are locked to 4 processes. So if you run with -smp 6 and get an A1 WU, the client will step down to using 4 processes for that WU. If your next WU is A2, the client will step back up to 6. We will be releasing more A2 projects as time goes on.

We currently support 4 <= n <= # of physical cores. (On a dual-core machine, n goes to 4). Using more processes than the # of physical cores in a machine degrades performance substantially.

***Do not change your value of n in the middle of a WU. This will likely cause loss of the WU.***

Please report any problems or feedback to this forum. Thanks for testing!

Reanimatie moet binnen 15 minuten anders word het fataal

S2K: Nogmaals bedankt voor de info en de stats!

Fijn dat ze het stabieler hebben gemaakt, ben benieuwd...
Kan ik de nieuwe client nog net een keer uitproberen voordat ik ga stampen

TJB en Clan Delft feli met de behaalde mijlpalen
Overige mijlpalers ook proficiat

Update van het folding forum:

by kasson on Thu Mar 27, 2008 12:24 am

As toTOW alludes, we've had a couple reports of A2 failures with AMD X2 CPU's. There may be a problem with the SSE testing code here. Or it may be coincidence. I'm meeting with one of the lead Gromacs developers in the next week or two; I'll try to ask him about it. The SSE code is pretty low-level...

Ik heb m'n koetje maar even uit gezet
