I have an app_config file in my Linux box for CPDN tasks. It looks like this:

/var/lib/boinc/projects/climateprediction.net]$ cat app_config.xml 
<app_config>
    <project_max_concurrent>6</project_max_concurrent>
    <app>
        <name>oifs_43r3</name>
	<max_concurrent>2</max_concurrent>
        </app>
    <app>
        <name>oifs_43r3_bl</name>
        <max_concurrent>4</max_concurrent>
        </app>
    <app>
        <name>oifs_43r3_ps</name>
        <max_concurrent>4</max_concurrent>
        </app>
<!--    <app>
        <name>oifs_43r3 Linear grid tl255 l91</name>
        <max_concurrent>1</max_concurrent>
	</app> -->
<!--    <app>
        <name>oifs_43r3 Cubic Octahedral grid tco95 l91</name>
        <max_concurrent>1</max_concurrent>
	</app> -->
<!--    <app>
        <name>oifs_43r3 Cubic Octahedral grid tco159 l91</name>
        <max_concurrent>1</max_concurrent>
        </app> -->
<!--    <app>
        <name>oifs_43r3_l255</name>
        <max_concurrent>3</max_concurrent>
	</app> -->
<!--    <app>
        <name>oifs_43r3_l319</name>
        <max_concurrent>2</max_concurrent>
	</app> -->
    </app_config>

The first four entries are active and they work as expected.
The rest are commented out, but tasknames like those have been mentioned on these boards from time to time. I would like to delete the hopeless ones and correct the others, uncommenting them as they become available.

Is there an official list somewhere?

The only one I can be completely certain is retired is UK Met Office Coupled Model Full Resolution Ocean. It is the last of the tasks that used to take months on a fast machine of the day though I suspect those tasks on my current machine would be made short work of.

Hi, good question. Unfortunately the list of apps shown on the 'Applications' page under 'Computing' on this website only shows the long names not the short ones you need for the app_config.xml file. You can find the short <app><name>.... </name></app> in the client_state.xml file in the main BOINC data directory. However, this requires you first get a task!

You can remove the entries in your file with the long names, they will not work (I see you have them commented out).

You can also remove the <name>oifs_43r3_ps</name>. The code for this app has now been integrated into the default OpenIFS app.

Here is the list of currently defined OpenIFS apps at CPDN on the main site (there are more in development):

OpenIFS 43r3_t159:        <name>oifs_43r3</name>
OpenIFS 43r3-bl_t159:     <name>oifs_43r3_bl</name>
OpenIFS 43r3_t255:        <name>oifs_43r3_l255</name>
OpenIFS 43r3_tco159:     <name>oifs_43r3_c159</name>
OpenIFS 43r3_tco95:      <name>oifs_43r3_c95</name>
OpenIFS 43r3_tl63:        <name>oifs_43r3_l63</name>

The '43r3' is the OpenIFS model version number. The '-bl' is the baroclinic lifecycle variant. The 't', 'tl' & 'tco' indicate the type of horizontal grid configuration the model is using.

I presume you only wanted the OpenIFS apps as that's all that was in your file.

HTH.

Not quite so. The very first entry says I will take up to six CPDN tasks of any kind unless the following rules apply. It turns out I am only being fussy about the OpenIFS ones.

<app_config>
    <project_max_concurrent>6</project_max_concurrent>

   <app>
        <name>oifs_43r3</name>
	<max_concurrent>2</max_concurrent>
        </app>
...
   </app_config>
