The resources Use column

[fred]

I want to detect if a ATI or NVIDIA gpu is running a tasks.
So I'm only interested in GPU tasks.

1) NVIDIA do all tasks show + x.00 NVIDIA GPUs = xNV in the Use column. I mean on all projects, or are there projects that show something else.
2) ATI what do these tasks show in the Use column. Are they all the same, on all projects.

Well I can't speak to all NVIDIA projects, but definitely yes on Collatz, DNETC, Einstein, GPUGRID, Primegrid & Seti/Seti Beta: with the "Condense Use column" option checkbox off/on respectively.  (At least all the application plan classes I've run so far.)

1) I have only seen "xx + yNV" and appended " (d0)" string (or d1, d2, etc) for the device number (when there are more than one NV device).
2) I have only seen "xx + y ATI GPUs" and appended " (d0)" string (or d1, d2, etc) for the device number (when there are more than one ATI device).

This is with Condensed Use Column. I have never turned it off so don't know what happens then.

I'm seeing this right now with DNETC, Milkyway, Seti (incl. beta) and Collatz. Previously also GPUGRID have behaved like this. Maybe also Einstein, but haven't run that for a while..

Ok.

I will at least condense ATI the same way from "x ATI GPUs" to "xATI"
