A few of my CMS tasks failed due to my host running out of memory (I've limited the number of concurrent tasks after noticing this). However, I see such failed workunits have not been issued to anyone else. Is there a reason why the project doesn't resend these? E.g., https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/workunit.php?wuid=220992952 max # of error/total/success tasks 1, 1, 1 errors Too many total results |

Is there a reason why the project doesn't resend these? Yes. At the project server the resend quota is intentionally set to 1 for vbox apps. This is due to the fact that BOINC tasks are only "envelopes" launching a VM. The scientific jobs are then done inside the VM. |
