Looks like you already figured it out! :up:
Well i joined this evening. Hung up F@H for this. I installed the custom XS single cpu version and im assuming since it automatically set everything up for the XS team, i dont have my own stats? It never asked me for a user name and such.
Welcome to the team!
You need to use the installer labelled "personal" to have it setup to have your own stats. But, that is easily correctable, and if that is what you desire someone can easily help you do that. your points will move with you. So for now, you're good; you can always move them tomorrow or the next day.
Again, welcome. Great to have you with us!
This will get you crunching under your own account.
.:NOTE:. I know this looks like a lot but I made it wordy to eliminate confusion... it's really simple!
To make your node, created by the community installer, stop crunching for the XtremeSystems_Community account, and start crunching under your own personal account:
You need to remove the node.prp which holds the node registration and create a new node with your registration info.
1.) Stop the XS_D2OL Service from running so you can make the changes.
Go to the service manager (Right click on your My Computer icon on the desktop and select Manage. At the bottom you should see Services...) Stop the XS_D2OL1 service. (Repeat for XS_D2OL2, 3, and 4 is you used the multiple node installers.)
Now go to the task manager and stop the Gridwin.exe task(s) (or Dockwin.exe) Do it for all of them if you used a multiple node installer (There will be multiple DockWin or GridWin task running if you did)
The D2OL Agent(s) is now stopped.
2.) Now remove the node.prp file from the "C:\XS_D2OL\D2OL1\D2OL\res" folder
This will unregistered your node from the XtremeSystems_Community account. You will then be free to re-register your agent under your own account.
Now go to the "C:\XS_D2OL\D2OL1\D2OL" and open D2OL.exe. This will start the D2OL Agent in the sys tray...
When you start the D2OL.exe file it will ask you to register the node... Use your e-mail address that you already have an account for, or plan to use to create an account. Use the same e-mail for every node you ever register. !!!***USE A REAL E-MAIL ADDRESS THAT YOU HAVE ACCESS TO***!!!
Repeat step 2 if you have any other nodes on the system created by a multiple node installer. Substitute the path to D2OL.exe and node.prp with "C:\XS_D2OL\D2OL2\D2OL" and so on for multiple node installers.
3.) If you haven't already created an account you will need to do so now. The following instructions assume that you do not have an account.
Take note of the node number(s) that were just created when you entered your e-mail for registration. To do this:
Right click on the D2OL sys tray icon and select Status. At the top select Statistics.
Here you can see your node ID and your e-mail address.
You only need to know 1 of your node ID's for registration. The rest will be available to add once your account is created.
With this information you can now create an account.
Go to this page and create your account. http://app.d2ol.com/memberServices/createMember.jsp
Enter the e-mail and a node number that you have registered.
The node that you used to activate your account will be automatically tied to your user name.
If you registered more nodes you will be able to add them by clicking on the "ADD NODE" button at the bottom of your "Team - My Home Page".
You should be ready to rock and roll!!!!!!
NOTE... the points that you contributed to the community account are left in the Community account. It is impossible to move them out.
I copyed my .prp to a folder on my backup drive,created folder named backup node, opened foldr & created folder with node # than put .prp in 1st. folder. Is this good to go for backup.
Description is a little confusing, but yeah, that sounds about right. As long as you have a copy of that node.prp somewhere safe you're set. By the way, if you want to use the same node #, for installs on other computers -to create a "supernode" (where all your machines run under one # ) then you just copy the node.prp into the appropriate folder on a new install. ( per the instructions above ).Quote:

i should of said i followed guide #6 on 1st. page here. And that's all i need to do. Unless i get another node. Thanks for info on supernode that would of been my next question as i'm putting unused machine to work in a few weeks. Thanks
Awwh!! Annoying, just found out this too late. Now the same A64 comp has two different node IDs. Anyway, very good guide w/ lots of good stuff. :thumbsup:
So do I need two nodes for a dual core opteron?
2 cores = 2 nodes :D
