Again there was another DAG change and 3 out of 10 miners wen't offline.
Is this a known problem ?

Ubuntu 18.04.4 with AMD 20.20 drivers.

use -lidag to slow down the dag creation process and prevent crashes.
I agree this is a good setting to try. I've used -lidag 3 and it does seem to help with the crashes during dag changes and also helped with crashing at startup I was having on an 11 gpu rig. But I still get crashes on some rigs during the dag change even with the lidag setting.

if you dont want dag creation every 2 epoch change. use -eres to create a dag good for a number of epochs ahead.  I use -eres 10 so dag will be processed after 10 epoch change.

I haven't tried the -eres setting before (thought that was for 4GB issues but I'm wrong). I'll give it a try. Thank you.  Grin
