There is no resume of plotting yet. The GUI verifies all plots with each set of challenges. To specifically verify all or individual plots you can use |

Sorry to ask but, how long do you think it is going to take to develop "resume" feature |

Pause and resume in Plots would be an amazing addition. |

So my Gui Crashed during plotting at 100% during the process of copying the files across to the final directory. Are these files complete? So can I just delete the the .tmp part of the file-name and they will work then coppy them from my plotter to my Final drive manualy otherwise ive just wasted 8 hours of plotting. |

I've done this before and had success. It ended with *plot.2.tmp or something and I changed it to *.plot after it failed to copy (why not move?!). Moved the file over via a different method and the Farmer saw the new file and was OK. |

Pausing and resuming paused plots is possible in linux using the built in task manager. It wont be possible to pause, restart and then resume though. The state of the process is just set to sleep. |

Hibernation (not hybrid sleep) works well on Windows. Of course, if you have "scheduled" queues, just remove all pending jobs and leave only currently plotting plots. After you wake up your computer, it will continue normally. |

WHat I see is when the NMVE overheats the 'chia create plot' just terminates itself, often without even writing to the log. Watch the temp, and watch 'sudo iotop' if its goes to zero, you got problems, watch the 'htop' if the processes fall off the top, its means the NVME controller has quit responding. Once a plot fails, usually 5th hour in a 6hr process, nothing can bring them back, its just the way this garbage software is written, only purpose is to KILL HW. |

with chia plots check, what is the reasonable Proofs ratio range? How do I conclude a plot file is "normal?" Between 0.8 - 1.2? |
