I must turn rig for a few minutes. After it is all ok and miner running...

8x 1080Ti
PL: 210W
OC Core: +20
OC Mem: -100
How do you restart miner ?
Do it this way :

Code:
pkill -e screen
pkill -f 3main

This is most likely because the mining client is still running in a screen when you start another.  I have noticed that some of the clients are not being killed properly by 3main when a new coin is selected and 3main is relaunched.  I will look into this more.  Using papampi's suggestion should work.
