I have a rig that loses a card every week or so and needs to be rebooted , why doe the miner keep mining even when watchdog fails with 1 card down
do i have to benchmark it to force it to reboot ?
Thanks for your question.
The exact behavior will depend on the mining software you are running. Some of them will stop mining if they consider a GPU to not be working.
What you can do from an Awesome Miner point of view is to configure a rule with a trigger called "Device Count". If you have the same number of GPU's in all mining rigs, you can specify to trigger when below a specific number.
In case the number of GPU's are different per miner - each miner can be configured with the expected number of devices in the Managed Miner Properties, Advanced section. The trigger can be configured to compare with the expected number of devices configured on the Managed Miner.
The rule action can be set to "Miner command" where you can select Reboot.
