So something really strange is happening.
- Last week (I posted this earlier): The miner stopped mining but was still online (with hashrate at 0). This somehow corrupted the node's blockchain so I had to retransfer it to the usb and everything was back to normal.
- Last week end at one point the fan went at 100% for no apparent reason (I was in balanced mode), the temperatures were not too high but the dashboard was unresponsive and the fan was at 100% so I had to reboot the Apollo with the switch. This time it did not corrupt the blockchain because the node went right back up.
- Yesterday it went offline for some time (my pool tells me when the miner is offline) but I was not home so I figured there was a glitch with Internet because when I got back home it was mining like nothing had happened.
- Today it went offline again but this time I was home and Internet did not go out so I don't know what happened I just restarted it with the dashboard and it was working again. Later today the Apollo actually turned off (LED off) but the PSU was on. I actually thought it had fried.
Did a manual reboot, without the USB though because I want to test it for a few days just mining not running the node. It's mining now.
Is anybody experiencing this? What can be the cause? It seems like since I upgraded to node I have a lot of problems because it was running for almost a year with no issue.
