It appears that no jobs are available for LHCb.
And the status project doesn't show this fact...

"206 (0x000000CE) EXIT_INIT_FAILURE"

2017-04-16 10:49:00 (8004): Guest Log: [ERROR] Condor exited after 607s without running a job.


I think it's better to switch to other subprojects untill it is fixed.

I found two ways to see the real activity of LHCb :

1°) LHCb Job Activities :





You have to merge the two diagrams to understand if the jobs running are failing or not.

2°) Top participants by application :

this shortcut shows the list of top 20 participants on LHCb,sorted by RAC.
Select a user , then a host , and you can considerate the results it has in operating LHCb 's wus.
So you can guess the probability of jobs available , seeing the behavior of one of these hosts which runs plenty of LHCb jobs according to their recent average credit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hope it gives you a better point of view on how to decide if this is worth running or not LHCb jobs at a particular moment.
I think it 's important to optimize the use of computer's volunteers (for them ,for the project , and for the planet...) ୧[ ˵ ͡ᵔ ͜ʟ ͡ᵔ ˵ ]୨

Any idea when new Jobs will be available?
I was so eager to try LHCb - no chance so far :-(

I think there are jobs available. I just finished one 10 minutes after your post (runtime about 44 000 seconds). 6 more has been downloaded by Boinc but I am unable to see how they are doing because I am not currently at that host.

Dear Erich56 (and all),

you should be able to crunch LHCb jobs so far.
Just started three a couple of minutes ago...

Please let me know if the issue persists.
(no need to tick the test job checkbox now)

Cheers,
Luca

After a successful WU a couple of days ago last weekend I had 4 in a row that failed with the typical "206 (0x000000CE) EXIT_INIT_FAILURE" as if there were no jobs available for the running VM.

Right now all my hosts are inmidst of crunching CMS, so I don't want to interrupt at the moment.
However, from what is shown here:

http://lhcathomedev.cern.ch/lhcathome-dev/lhcb_job.php

it looks like as if there are no Jobs currently.

dear all,

the issue with 206 error should be fixed.
Jobs have always been available but the batch system was preventing the submission to the VMs in some cases.
Please, try to run LHCb jobs now!

Since yesterday there are no jobs available for LHCb WUs.
https://lhcathomedev.cern.ch/lhcathome-dev/lhcb_job.php

Nontheless the project server still fills up the WU queue.

It seems that Laurence's emergency break doesn't work, does it?

LHCb uses pilots jobs. I have just stopped submitting these and we should see the emergency brake kick in. We need to add in the additional query for the real LHCb jobs.

Thank you.

I forgot to mention that the last job
https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=145391330
did not shutdown automatically after 25 idle minutes.
I had to cancel it manually.
