Temp Dirs

[bmentink]

HI,

Love the software, make's plotting much easier. However ..

I am getting the error: "no eligible tempdirs (5617s/5100s)" when I plot.

I am only running two parallel plots with a 1TB SSD. I would have thought that since temporary storage takes 280GB per plot, there would be enough temp space ..

If you're plotting in parallel or using the tmp2 feature, it might just be a temporary issue. What plotman probably means is "no eligible tempdirs right now"

You might also have the max jobs tmpdir_max_jobs setting too low -- with 1TB plotting drive, you should be able to set this to 4, since using plotman, not all jobs will be in Phase 2 at the same time. But personally, I'd recommend using the tmp2 feature of chia to avoid running out of space on tmp and gumming up your plots.
