<div class="gmail_quote"><div>Thanks a ton for the help fellas, just a couple follow-up questions:<br><br>1. So I have /etc/rc.d/foldingathome as the daemon, but I see in htop that it's FahCore_a0.exe actually running. What do I renice? I saw in man renice that if I don't use "-p" for already running process, the command will be run with ionice instead, so just a bit confused and don't wanna change priority of the wrong process.<br>
<br>2. I often transfer recordings to and fro the BE during playback on separate FE, would ionice enable me to give less priority to transfers while the FE be goin' so as not to lag playback? If so, which process(es) and/or what else must I do?<br>
<br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">You could just write your cronjob to check to see the current status of<br>
your encoders and start/stop folding as needed. Maybe run the check<br>
every 30 minutes or so.<br>
<br>
wget -qO- localhost:6544 | grep -c "not recording."<br>
<br>
That should return the total number of encoders in use.<br>

Thanks a lot<br>
