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

eres has nothing to do with 4gb cards. We are currently on epoch 396 and my next dag creation process is on epoch 406 which is scheduled on april 14 of this year, almost 2 months  Cool Shocked Grin . This is according to dag calendar from minerstat
