How does one join https://lhcathomedev.cern.ch/lhcathome-dev/signup.php ? It asks for an invitation code. Or can I run their application some other way?

I'm running Zorin 16 (Ubuntu 20) on https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/show_host_detail.php?hostid=10821595 and installed the boinc-virtualbox package which also installs virtualbox. I got computation errors for tasks other than sixtrack (as you can see, two failed theory tasks are listed for that machine).

lscpu shows VT-x. I even tried with Zorin 15 before this. I finally gave up and removed virtualbox and now only keep the machine for sixtrack but I would like to know why this keeps failing virtualbox applications. Any help appreciated.

Yeah, I noticed that too. I’ll just have to make do with other Projects.

Thanks. I’ll stick to six track.

Thanks much to you both.

@computezrmle: I had tried a couple of tasks a while back cancelled when I saw the run times - if I recall, they were Atlas. So, it may be possible to run some Virtualbox tasks. Your RAM observation is interesting, as is the start from scratch for Atlas. Would you think it worth it to give CMS a try?

Hi, all.
Barring six track, how long can my machine be offline for a task to be failed?
So, if a task is started and I have to go offline midway, by when do I have to get back online for the task to continue? Does this vary by application?

Hi,
I’ve read that LHC needs a constant internet connection.
Is this the case for all 6 applications (six track, CMS, Theory, Atlas, etc) listed under the Preferences section at https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/home.php ? Can I run any of these offline and upload results intermittently?
Thanks in advance.
