Computers in cluster spending all their CPU time with system; many questio

I'd be interested to know if anyone on the list has been successful in getting QMaster to work on a home network of G4 computers, 800 - 867 MHz, NO server, 100 mbps hubs, existing CAT5 wiring violates the radius recommendations for 100 mbps.
At one point, I had been successful in having all three macs busy processing (CPU activity monitor mostly in the green) only to find gaps in my encoded video.
Most recently, I tried having my main computer as client rather than controller. The client computer compressing happily, but the other two were in the red, i.e. devoting much but not all of their CPU time to the system, with little user CPU activity. The estimated completion time was more than double what the job should have taken on my local machine, so I canceled the job after about an hour.
Host names are unknown according to QAdministrator.
I am still unclear about shared cluster storage. Does it matter how it is set other than for the machine that is controller?
Should I try to mount volumes in the finder for the other two computers on each machine? The documentation doesn't say anything about this.
What folders need to have read and write privileges for all other computers on the network. What is the most reliable way to set this? What user group do I choose? What folders do I apply this to? Might I need to set up for a common group for all my machines, similar to Windows Workgroups? If so, how do I do this?
Thanks,
Cris

hi Cris, yes it can be frustrating.. please see a link to a post I did when I had loads of trouble and I provided a detailed resolution at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4171772&#417.
THere are some options to STOP QMASTER from copying objects for COMPRESSOR by simply mounting (NFS) the volumes with ALL your file systems where source and target files will be.
Also for the CLUSTER CONTROLLER use the Qmaster system prefs to SET the cluster file to one of the NETWORK or SSAFS (xsa) shared volumes .. I guess you may not have XSAN.. so just have ALL the volumes mounted so each HOST can access them.

My Time Capsule has quit backing up - now spends all it's time "preparing". I've tried the Apple suggestion of a reset which does not help. All indicators seems to be OK. Running OS 10.5.8 on G4 Powerbook, Time capule is 1st gen I believe. Any ideas?

Hello,
Thanks for your message, I have attempted to repait the permissions as tou suggested. The first time this produced a long list of exceptions and took quite a while, however although it said "Permissions repair Complete" when I ran it again there were still about 20 exceptions, I have repeated the procedure and this is unchanged. The Time Capsule now does not spend hours "Preparing", but the backup attempt fails after a few minutes with the error message "The backup volume could not be mounted." Any further ideas would be appreciated. When I use Disk Utility I can't see the Time Capsule volume, if I could I'd be tempted to re-format it and start from scratch.

Free up CPU time with IMAQ

I try to free up the CPU time while using IMAQ low level functions to display the images. From the "Help on line", there is an example where we must do something like below after we open the session.
// Define attribute for sleep time
#define IMG_ATTR_SLEEPTIME (_IMG_BASE + 0x03F6)
// The below lines are in my codes
// Open the interface and session
imgInterfaceOpen (intName, &Iid);
imgSessionOpen (Iid, &Sid);
// Set the sleep time to free up the CPU in ms
imgSetAttribute (Sid, IMG_ATTR_SLEEPTIME, 50);
Notes : I got all the above code from the on-line help.
Everything work fine, excepting the CPU time was not free up.
Please let me know what's wrong ? Why does imgSetAttribute function does not work ? What's the solution?
Thanks !!!

Hi Kyle V,
Yes, I tried to read the attribute (using the imgGetAttribute function). The value is being set correctly.
I can not use the CVI_HL Ring with Sleep example, because I'm not using the trigger. I am using the low level grab example right now. The only modification is that I edit the sleep time to this example. You can look at the code below and search for "Leon" to see all my modification. (I only made 2 changes). I think the main point is that I set the sleep time after I open the session in "int OnGrab (void)". Remember I get this code from the example code as well.
Thanks for your help.

Hi, I want to know how many computers I can work at the same time with a single license?

I need a total of 4 seats photoshop+ lightroom , and 2 workstations Adobe Premiere Pro , and have to work all at once. What is the best solution for me? sorry for my english

6 users = 6 licenses .4 photoshop+lightroom and 2 PPRO .When Adobe speaks about to install 2 times with the same license ,they mean for the same user ( for example on his desktop and laptop ).

How do I rename many photos all at one time with one click?

I have got many photos of a sery and want to rename it all with one click only (instead of clicking through it all in single actions and wasting time).
How can I rename many pictures/photos all together with one click only? -
1) I have OS X Yosemite
2) Aperture
3) Automator App
to use for this purpose, but I do not see through with any of it.
Detailed Support for 1) and 2) and 3) please!

Here is an article on how to batch rename files in Yosemite using just the Finder. This is a new feature in Yosemite. See if this article helps you get your files renamed.

SystemUIServer hogs CPU time-with details

Like so many others, I am finding that SystemUIServer is often consuming between 90% and 100% of a CPU. I have tried various of the solutions offered in other threads, to no avail. And I believe I have more details than I have seen posted yet. First, the elementaries:
Mid-2007 iMac, 24", 4 GB, clean install of 10.8 followed by restoration of user files from a Time Machine backup, then followed by deletion of a great many $HOME/Library/Preferences files (and a reboot) to try to eliminate system slowness.
I have no Login Items. The right-hand menu bar initially contained the icons for
Time Machine
Bluetooth
Volume control
Date & Time
Fast User Switching
Spotlight
Notifications
I turned off Date & Time and restarted SystemUIServer. The problem was not solved.
I turned Date & Time back on, and turned off the Time Machine icon display, and restarted SystemUIServer. The problem was not solved.
When CPU consumption is high, ps shows
$ ps axguw | egrep CPU\|UIS | grep -v grep
USER             PID %CPU %MEM      VSZ    RSS   TT STAT STARTED      TIME COMMAND
matt             288 95.5 2.0 2640848 83564   ?? R    Wed06PM 1291:43.28 /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemUIServer.app/Contents/MacOS/SystemUIServer
And after killing the process and letting it restart, it looks like this
$ ps axguw | egrep CPU\|UIS | grep -v grep
USER             PID %CPU %MEM      VSZ    RSS   TT STAT STARTED      TIME COMMAND
matt            9025   0.0 0.5 2580992 20772   ?? S    11:27AM   0:01.86 /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemUIServer.app/Contents/MacOS/SystemUIServer
While it was in a state of high CPU consumption I looked at it with dtruss. The output was very repetetive and included a lot of open, close. open, fstat64, read, close cycles on two files:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
/System/Library/Frameworks/SystemConfiguration.framework/Resources/English.lproj /NetworkInterface.strings
There were also a lot of geteuid() and a couple of interesting ioctl() calls. It looks like they were on an fd which is an unbound UDP socket, and they were request 0xC02869C9, which works out to _IOWR('i', 201, struct whoozis), where a struct whoozis is 40 bytes long. I'm not sure what this IOCTL is but maybe part of the 802.11 API?
When I do dtruss on SystemUIServer when it is not consuming a lot of CPU, I see a lot more kevent() and
workq_kernreturn(). There were just a few of those when the process was running hard, but they dominate the dtruss output during normal times.
Here is a chunk of the abnormal-state dtruss output.

What is a common cause for high sys CPU time and system faults on an Iplanet server?

Hi,
A newbie question...
I am benchmarking an application which uses Iplanet on Solaris (2X400mhz cpus). vmstat output follows.
Note the high sys time and relatively lower user mode time. Also relatively high system fault rate. Is this
normal? If not, common causes?
fyi - we are not running Java VM on this server.
I have TRUSS output showing kernal activity but dont want to post it here without some further guidance
on what if anything in it might be helpful.
Thanks!
Bernie

Hello
You can change the DB isolation level to Read uncommitted
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms378149(v=sql.110).aspx
or use WITH (NOLOCK)
I do use NOLOCK option for the dirty reads to avoid locks on the tables

HT3302 fell in the water by accident,since i had it in the rice for few weeks, when i turn on apple sign comes on and disappear soon .what could i do .my six year boy was spending most of his time with

please help

Expect to pay about $249 for the Out-Of-Warranty replacement.
Unless you have AppleCare Plus, or some other form of damage protection.

Ipad would not power on for the third time, with as many Ipads

I need some help, is there something wrong with me, or is it the Ipad's that i unfortunately selected. This is the 3rd ipad in less than 3weeks that i have to return to the store. the problem is the same with all three, work, then stop, and would not power on again.
Is there some negative energy that is emanating from me that i triggering off this negativity?

It was said that lightning doesn't strike the same place twice, but that is not true. I have experience many same thing experiences in the past that told me for a certainty, that lightning can and does strike the same place twice. LOL. Unfortunately I didn't have to return the third I-pad i was able to get the problem solved by one of the support community members. (sorry i forgot his name now).
His suggestion to another one having similar issues, i tried and it work for me. Probably that is what i should have done with the first one. unfortunately I did not know of this support group, only after me returning the 2nd, and i discuss those issues with some computer tech guys.
I read that to get the I-pad turn on i was suppose to " hold in both the power button and the sleep button together for a few seconds and wait until the apple logo comes on, and by doing so it will not delete any data.
I did just that, and after about a minute, it powered on, saving me a trip back to the store.
So thanks guys for your support

I am caught in bizarre situation my labview programee takes 100percent cpu time and creates a deadlock

i am communicating with java programme through data socket but labview creates problem

You might try putting a 50 msec delay somewhere in your program loop to give the CPU time to perform other tasks. With no delays in a LabVIEW program, it *will* hog all the CPU time.

When all else fails, Read The Fine Manual
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14211/sqltrace.htm#PFGRF01040
code]
count = number of times OCI procedure was executed
cpu = cpu time in seconds executing
elapsed = elapsed time in seconds executing
disk = number of physical reads of buffers from disk
query = number of buffers gotten for consistent read
current = number of buffers gotten in current mode (usually for update)
rows = number of rows processed by the fetch or execute call
There is minimal relationship between "cpu time in seconds executing" for most SQL and "number of physical reads of buffers from disk".
CPU Times includes CPU activity other than working to complete physical reads of buffers from disk
Each measures in its own units based upon activity two different subsystem components.

DPS 6.3 takes 100% of CPU time

I've 2 couple of DPS 6.3 proxy servers running upstream 2 couple of DS 6.3 on RHAS 4U6, JRE 1.5.0_16-b02
located on 2 different sites.(6.3_KS_6661375_6670752_6654625_6513526_6653253_663073_6723858 B2008.0717.2043)
I notice about once a week to every 2 weeks that a proxy server on each site starts to send
to me warning messages about an LDAP data source not available on the remote site.
The proactive monitor thread logs messages such as "exceeded maximum allowed timeout of 10000 ms" .
The problem is that when it occurs, the proxy starts to take all the available CPU time so that there's
no other solution than restarting it .
Known problem ?

The problem occured today, I had about 35 threads running among which the 5 below were taking all the CPU time,
the others being under 2% CPU :

To compare given time with the system time

i need to compare the given time with system time.i dont know how to compare with system time
in my application i need to end the time when both time is equal i need to give permission to access my page
thank u
plz help me

Date d =new Date();
System.out.println(d);
Date d1 =new Date("04/28/2006 16:37");
System.out.println(" "+d.getTime()+" "+d1.getTime());you can use like this. d1 contains the user date
as u mentioned
startTime = new Date( "04/28/2006 12:37");
EndTime = new Date( "04/28/2006 18:37");
if curTime = new Date();
then you can compare like
if(curTime.after(startTime) && curTime.before(EndTime)
hope it will work

HT201269 Hi. I have shared an Apple ID with my children for some time. As they are getting older they do not wnat me seeing all their messages, photos etc so want their own accounts. How can they access their purchased music and apps on the new account

Hi. I have shared an Apple ID with my children for some time. As they are getting older they do not wnat me seeing all their messages, photos etc so want their own accounts. How can they access their purchased music and apps on the new account please?

Yes.
On their iOS devices, under Settings>iTunes & App Store, they should use your Apple ID. When they log into iCloud, iMessage and Facetime, they should use their personal Apple IDs.

Computers in cluster spending all their CPU time with system; many questio
