Failed write file code2? Definition?
-
I'm at work and my Gf calls me to say the power went out. I asked her about the laptops (one for mining and one for plotting). The mining one has resumed but HDD I am plotting now shows this "Failed Write file code2". Any idea if this just means the plotting was interrupted or maybe another issue associated with this. I wasn't home so who knows what happened, but she claims the "power went out" :/
Using the latest version of the wallet, xplotter.
-
@Vanquish not sure on the spec code but if the plotting was interupted you gona need to delete the plot and start over.
-
@Gibsalot Yeah, I've been down this road too many times now grrr. I've spent 7 days plotting this HDD and I was almost done. Most annoying Shit ever.
-
try running more plot files just smaller ,, i plot everything in 500gig plot files and then just make a smaller plot to fill the last bit of HDD
-
@Vanquish If you were using xplotter the plot can be resumed, but you have to do it manually.
-
I'm an idiot so I'm gonna have to figure out how to continue. I read on another thread how to do it so I will attempt it. Do any of you guys have a "restart the plotter for dummies" guide?

@Vanquish From a command prompt running as administrator, go to:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\BurstWallet\XPlotter
Get a directory listing of the drive you were plotting - eg if D: do
dir d:\plots
It'll return a filename like: 5860130482017119184_200000000_409600_16384
The filename indicates everything about the plotfile:
burstID_startNonce_NumberOfNonces_Stagger
Then do:
xplotter_avx -id <burstID> -sn <startNonce> -n <NumberOfNonces> -t <number of threads> -path drive:\plots
eg:
xplotter_avx -id 5860130482017119184 -sn 200000000 -n 409600 -t 7 -path d:\plots
Replace <number of threads> with the number of CPU threads you want.

@haitch Wow, this is great. I will certainly attempt this when I get home later today. Good stuff here, I wish I can help you out as well someday...
-
@Vanquish No problem - let us know how it goes.

-
@Vanquish Struggling to read those screenshots, but it looks like you're doing "xplotter: - it needs to be "xplotter_avx"
-
@haitch ok, i will give it shot now
-
-
@Vanquish you're in the wrong directory - do "cd xplotter"
-
@haitch Please show me verbatim on what I'm supposed to type in the command. I still can't get it. Not sure if I'm putting in "cd Xplotter" in the proper place
-
@Vanquish cd C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\BurstWallet\XPlotter
Replace <username> with your Windows username
