CPU <-> GPU rebranding
Raistmer:
If you have >500 MB tasks in cache script will exit w/o modifying BOINC state.
It's some kind of foolproof. There are too many users now who trash whole 10-day cache with few thousands tasks with easy trying some new software/configurations w/o any care of properly backing up their BOINC installation.
Anyone who skilled enough can easely modify this limit. The rest of users should obey it.

OK, it is quite simple...but I have a problem :'(
I modified the limit, that was simple. I run it, and it doesn't work :
--- Quote --->perl -w CPU_GPU_rebrand_V2.pl
Number of CPU tasks before rescheduling:0
Number of GPU tasks before rescheduling:610
Illegal division by zero at CPU_GPU_rebrand_V2.pl line 50.
--- End quote ---
I studied the script, and the div/0 is logical with all the tasks considered as GPU. I don't understand why this is the case, however.
btw, thank you for your previous answers, I have learned something.

...
Don't forget to backup you BOINC data folder and disable BOINC network access on first script use.

BTW, is it too hard to convert VisualBasic6-program into VBScript?
In the beginning I did rebranding 608->603 manually, but after increasing of VLAR-WUs quantity I made VB6-program and using it past days...

I have exactly the same problem. :( Using Boinc 6.6.20, and having a Q9650 and GTX260.
Having a lot of CPU AP tasks, and probably no 603 CPU tasks, only 6.08 GPU ones (from which some of them are VLARs to be rebranded for sure).

Here replacement script.
