Sign up for HP Cloud Services Beta - FREE crunching power

I linked another image here to show that sometimes there are 2 processes, but it only is doing something for maybe a second before it returns to being a process not consuming any cpu power.

Also I attached a image of the profile that the boxes are working off of. Does anything seem off?

I know what's off. I believe there is a boinccmd command to utilize the BOINC account manager:

boinccmd --join_acc_mgr URL name password

I noticed in the second image you linked, you had a BAM! settings page, rather than the account page. Try the code snippet I linked and see if your VM will pick up the 99 cores/threads usage. That should get you your 100% utilization.

Yes indeed I had used that command, actually it has a "t" in it 🙂

boinccmd --join_acct_mgr URL name password

That's how its doing the work its currently doing so its definitely connecting to the manager. Still only 1 process at a time though 🙂

Hi EagleKeeper,

As far as I can tell, you have to sign up yourself, but enter

@hpcloud - “Peter_Trend"

in the Twitter field. I've had a look, and I can't see any other way to invite you.

Please feel free, and let me know if it works!

Peter

FYI, looks like we will be switching to a public beta on May 10th, which at that time we will be start getting billed for usage.

While we are looking at a 50% discount for the first month, I'm thinking we'll be looking at Amazon EC2 prices, knowing HP's pricing model.
