SSD 250GB not enough temp space #189

Open eagle283 opened 2 years ago

eagle283 commented 2 years ago

I bought a 250GB SSD to run with MadMax, MM. I tried to get it running with PSChiaPlotter and it's stalls to start because of the lack of temp space. It seems like after the 250GB is formatted it only leaves 232GB left. I can run MM within the file and it opens a command prompt and completes the plots. I would like to be able to use PSChiaPlotter to replot, but I can't currently. Is there a work around to fix the PSChiaPlotter to prevent from checking the amount of temp space before running the job?

Are you sure you have the alternative plotter feature turned when using PSChiaPlotter? The plot manager doesn't check free space when using MM as shown by the code below.

if ($ChiaJob.ChiaParameters.AlternativePlotterEnabled -eq $true){
    return $volume
}
elseif (($Volume.CurrentChiaRuns.Count -lt $volume.MaxConCurrentTempChiaRuns) -or ($ChiaJob.IgnoreMaxParallel)){
            if (($volume.FreeSpace - ($Volume.PendingFinalRuns.Count * $finalplotsize)) -gt $requiredTempSize -or ($ChiaJob.DisableFreeSpaceCheck -eq $true)){
                return $volume
            }
        }
}

I double checked and I do have it checked. If I change the temp drive from the SSD that has 232GB to my C drive it runs. It's very slow because my C drive is a HDD.

If possible could you take a screen shot of this happening (both the new job window and the main window). You can also check the "Ignore Free Space" box and this should ensure PSChiaPlotter does not check for free space on the drive before plotting.
