After waiting for 3 hours for step 1 to complete, step 2 looked for the same exact option file from step 1 and crashed with the error "***.gsboptset
does not exist". Why would it find the file in step 1, but not in step 2? Is there a way for the AU to check all files up front rather than crashing
hours into the job? Thank you.

Thats frustrating for you..
You could try building say 500 systems as a test, and keep default autoexit to false.
Short term I want AU to check the files exist before we begin.
But the second and third set of files only will exist after optization is run.
The only think I can think of is the macro doesnt exit. Im happy to look via teamviewer.com Its possible there are other causes, but I just cant tell
till I look.
the log files will be in &AppData%\Roaming\GSB Automation\log which might give us clues too.

I checked the log file and it wasn't clear what happened to the manager. The log only mentions "Worker 8964" died, but doesn't mention the manager.
That's a good idea to build on only 500 systems while I work out the kinks with AU.
Regarding editing the macros, GSB has the nice editing feature - would you consider adding this into AU? Currently the "..." locates the macro file.

hi Getty, In the beginning i had some issues like yourself, like gsboptset does not exist etc this was due to file was not saved as green green, but
rather green orange and my settings wanted to use green green, this was due to issue that file name could not contain special characters so whatever i
did it always had orange as true... i have also had issues where a opt setting i wanted to use was not saved in same version as manager version that
AU opened, and same as workers, i have also have had AU crash due to the header can not take more than X amount of character, so its a fair bit of
operational things to work out and keep track of although i never experienced any crashes of workers as you have. I strongly recommend setting up a
quick test when using a new macro table and run trough whole process with perhaps only 5 max systems per opt and check so everything works as
expected. However after 2 weeks of early adopter issues both from software and user, i am running a large bunch of AU and it performs as expected
*apart from stats... saving me considerable time working with GSB. Next thing to work out is how to use AU for other parts of my process that does not
involve indicator selection.

Daniel, the file header length is fixed in the next release of AU, and header info from AU passes to GSB too.
Sorry but I wont add macro editing in AU. Its two lots of code to maintain, and no great upside.
GSB will also now warn if the command line options are not correct in the next release.

Thanks Peter for header lenght.
Btw now when AU is up and running, do you use command line for any purpose in your process?

Peter, do you mind sharing in the paid forum the results (e.g. best indicators and secondary filters) from your latest automation work?

Im still working on it. Got interesting results but im redoing a fair bit of it.
Later tests used a total of 12 SF, but earlier tests did not.
So I want to do all tests on 12 sf to make valid comparison.
This is another 2 days work.
I will put results in private forum before too long, but the users who generously donated there cloud power are going to get all the full output
files, and get them before everyone else. I think its fair to reward them for their contribution.
Collectivly its awesome what the GSB community can do together.
23 computers peaking 293 workers right now

Hi Peter, how can I give you cloud power?
I agree the working as a community is more efficient. You are the GSB expert so it's probably better you drive this work. I would be interested in
seeing your results on indicators+SF on all major tradables... it will take time but if we all give you cloud power it could be quicker...

Select minimum # indicators
Peter, sometimes when after pass2 you might not have a lot of green indicators to select only the green ones for final build.
Maybe we need a minimum num indicators in the IndicatorTesting macro so that if will select at minimum lets say 5 indicators, whether they are green
or not.
If there's more than 5 that is green it will select ALL the green ones, otherwise it should start picking orange ones from the top down until
reached...

there is a new build of AU via auto update.
It will only update if all au are closed on the machine.
It also requires 58.62 manager or later.
Hope to release that soon.

Hi Peter,
Now that we can #move SF, is there plans to perform the same process for 'Entry Mode'?

Absolutely yes. Are you in a hurry for it?

Looking forward to test it, waiting for my two existing instances of AU to finish their jobs first..

Hi Peter, as i understand header text in AU shall auto populate to manager, as it is now.... it kind of works, but not fully..
if i put the text 14 15 16 in header in AU, it populates only "14"
I assume conclusion is that on the first word/letter populates but not anything after a spacing..
Apart from this it seems to work great, stats has not been tested yet though.
Cheers

likely space is used as seperate command. I will see if we can fix that.
coming I hope next build is the ability to pic x indicators, if there are less than x.
Nick requested this and its good idea for a few reasons.
1 to slow to build 50,000 systems with few indicators. Not enough choice.
2 Range of systems is very low

Hi Peter,
Thanks for that.
About indicators,
I like Nicks idea very much, makes sense, still have not encountered below 4 though when doing green green method.
Below 4/5 is not really great i think, on my end i find best results around 4/5 for NG, and in CL a bit higher around 6-9.
Have you experienced the same behaviour ? and how do you define "few" indicators? 3-4?
Regards

when i eventually publish all the cl tests xls in the private forum, you will see the amount of indicators for each criteria. Right now its not in my
head to know what conditions brought about few indicators, but I know it did occur.
I even did 1 3 pass test.
The whole concept of use the top 5 or top 9 etc would in itself be another thing that we can now test
