Adoption of new BOINC wrapper
The Test4Theory project is now migrating from the older CERN "VMwrapper" to the new "vboxwrapper" developed and supported by the official BOINC development team. Many thanks to David Anderson, Rom Walton and Charlie Fenton for their work with us!
*** Starting from today, all volunteers running BOINC client versions 7.0 or higher will receive vboxwrapper Work Units ***
(Volunteers running BOINC clients 6.x or lower will still receive CERN VMwrapper Work Units, as they are not supported by vboxwrapper).
We are updating the project's Web pages to support this change, and also modifying their look and feel.
Some important differences you will notice with vboxwrapper compared to CERN VMwrapper:
- HEADLESS MODE: Your VM will run without a console window, but you can view its console via an RDP client by pressing the new button "Show VM Console" appearing in the BOINC manager GUI for a running Test4Theory Task. Non-Windows users can download and install a free RDP client such as CoRD for Mac OS X, or FreeRDP for Linux. The control keys Alt-Fx select the same alternative console screens as before.
(NOTE: "Show VM Console" will only work after you install the VirtualBox Extension Pack for your version of VirtualBox. Remember to quit BOINC before you update VirtualBox or the Extension Pack).
- GRAPHICS: Another new GUI button "Show graphics" is provided to view the graphics and log output from the VM, using any up to date browser version (including Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer 10 or Safari 6+). A window of your default browser will be automatically used.
- MAC SANDBOXING: Mac OS X users no longer need to run the "Mac enabling script" after updating the BOINC client.
- SINGLE CPU ONLY: For the moment only single-CPU operation is supported.
- VM CPU THROTTLING: This is supported via your local/global BOINC CPU preferences, not T4T project preferences.
(If you have previously selected the "Run test applications" T4T preference option to help us beta-testing vboxwrapper, you can remove it at your convenience).
Please give any feedback using this News thread "Adoption of new BOINC wrapper", or the Number crunching thread "Testing new wrapper".
Thanks to all from the Test4Theory Team 12 Aug 2013, 7:47:24 UTC
大意:
-7.0以上的BOINC会收到vboxwrapper的包,6.x依旧是VMWrapper;
-以无头模式(好难听……)运行将不会显示虚拟机控制台,但是你可以使用点击“显示虚拟机控制台”打开远程桌面连接(RDP)来显示正在运行的T4T任务,非Windows用户可以下载免费的RDP软件(CoRD for Mac OS X, FreeRDP for Linux)。按住Alt+Fx键可以切换视图。PS:使用“显示虚拟机控制台”功能必须给VBOX安装扩展包,更新扩展包之前请退出BOINC。(友情链接一下扩展包地址:https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads ,下面有Extension Pack,请选择对应版本);
-点击“显示图形”的按钮之后就能看到项目方为你精心制作的图形化界面哦(界面上的图一点都看不懂……);
-Mac用户不需要再执行什么脚本了(没用过不知道……);
-不再有双核模式了,全部都是单核包;
-可以通过BOINC的全局设定限制CPU使用(貌似是这个意思);
-如果你先前选择了运行测试程序的选项帮助我们测试vboxwrapper,你方便的时候就可以去掉啦;
-然后有问题就去论坛按照规范格式发帖吧;
over.
