Hi Matt,

 

There is a screensaver project in the CVS but work on it has stopped for some time. I’m not sure in what state it is now, I do not think anybody looked at it in a long time. You will find the latest code in the source packages under Alchemi.ScreenSaverExec.

 

There is another approach that you might find useful: running the Executor service when nobody is logged on. Reece Arnott did some work in this direction and his efforts are documented here:

Subject: [Alchemi-users] Alchemi Screensaver

 

Hello,

I just got Alchemi sucessfully installed on 4 computers, with a 5th for the manager.  Works great!!  This is a truly awesome piece of work -- It only took me a few hours to set it up and I can't wait to start writing applications for my grid.  The Alchemi developers have done a wonderful job.

I wish to have a number of dedicated (4 so far) and non-dedicated computers on the grid.  I have a number of other computers that I would like to run in non-dedicated mode, and have had good luck running the Alchemi.Executor program.

But, the users on these non-dedicated computer have to manually start up the executor.  Is there any way to do this automatically when their computer is idle?
I think I remember seeing a screensaver somewhere that would do this for them. Which package is that in?  I can't seem to find it.

I'm using the latest versions from sourceforge:
Executors (dedicated): Alchemi.ExecutorService-1.0.5-net-2.0.msi
Manager (dedicated): Alchemi.ManagerService-1.0.5-net-2.0.msi
Executors (non-dedicated): Alchemi.Executor-1.0.5-net-2.0.msi

Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks!
-Matt
