Understanding Maintenance Sleep Mode for Miners

This article explains maintenance sleep mode, why miners enter it, and what happens next.

What is maintenance sleep mode?

Maintenance sleep mode is a temporary state used when a site is undergoing maintenance, curtailments, or heat management. Miners may go into sleep mode automatically to help avoid overheating.

Why does a miner enter sleep mode?

Miners can be placed into sleep mode when site conditions require it, including:

• Maintenance at the site
• Curtailments
• Extreme heat or overheating risk

Does a miner in sleep mode need repair?

A miner in sleep mode does not require repair. It is being held offline for site-level conditions and is brought back online when it is safe to do so.

When will miners come back online?

Miners in sleep mode are brought back online when maintenance is complete and site conditions allow it. The team brings miners back up as quickly as possible once it is safe.

How can I monitor status updates?

Updates are available on the facility status page. Continued monitoring is recommended for ongoing outages and recovery updates.

What should I expect during this period?

During maintenance sleep mode, miners may show zero hashrate or appear offline until the site is ready to restore normal operation.
