I don't have that rig anymore, sorry.
But if I remember correctly, I was using screen on the rig, and using a root user for screen (and thus sgminer), I sstopped the annoying errors, and it would reboot. It probably wasn't the kosher way, but it got the job done.
Topic: Linux: Reboot after Failed GPU's (Read 609 times)
ever figure this out? im trying to write something that restarts them automatically...but im running into this problem.
Is there any progress? How you been able to run sgminer in daemon mode? For me it starts only when stdin is bound to the terminal.
but since I'm not running sgminer as sudo, the program spits out a permissions error.
run sgminer as root?
Hoping some linux or screen guru can help here with rebooting when a GPU is sick/dead.
I've got the options configured correctly for sgminer-gm to attempt the reboot after gpu-failure, but since I'm not running sgminer as sudo, the program spits out a permissions error.
I'm using screen to create a new session, start the miner at every boot. I only run into a problem when a GPU flunks out on me, and I'm new to linux, so still learning systemd. Does anyone know the proper way to let sgminer reboot when it attempts to?
I'm on Ubuntu 16.04 kernel 4.8.3-040803-generic amdgpu-pro-16.50

My systemd service to start up the miner (which works fine afaik) is the following:
I'm thinking I should be able to elevate priveleges for certain screen sessions or maybe make an alias for the reboot command within that session (so that I am only changing the priveleges within that single command w/in that single session) but am having a hard time figuring out how.
