Just so that everyone knows, whoever was following my issues with my server...


I didn't have any other crashes yesterday after adding pause to my batch...


Now, however, I have changed the x amount to 1500 on both miners as they are (or will be) pushing around 2.5 TB a piece...

So far so good... I am pretty sure that was the issue, but I still can't be 100%


I am now also moving the rest of my plotting onto a VM as to not interfere with anything on my important server.

Thank you everyone for your assistance!

The staggering is the number of nounces you compute before write everything into file, it depends on the ram available and thats all, you can choose any number you like and it will work unless you choose a number too high for the ram available, that's why 8096 is the limit, 8096 * 256kb = ~2gb

I've only used 512 to 2048 and trust me, i am mining fine.

Rich List isn't fully currect. I own just over 410 000 Burst and my address isn't anywhere on the list : BURST-CKUG-2DLF-KNL6-EETXA

Shit...lemme check.

Update:
Did you ever mine a block or buy in? Because if you havent mined any you would not be looked up...is there a public nxt block explorer i can setup for burst before i start parsing every transaction...

If I've 2 separate HDD, can I plot in each one starting from position 0? Or are they overlapping?
I mean, 2 separate HDD, can overlap?
I'm using a miner for each HDD
yes, they are overlapped. use different nounces or different wallets.I tested it that before and lost one day in generating plots...


Good, it's a week that I'm wasting about 50% of my space..  Sad

And what if:

Number of nonces (1600000) is not a multiple of stagger size (8191)?

Because I'm mining and finding block, so does it affect mining?

I debug the miner before some days.Im not a java programmer,but i think this number (8191) is just thenumber of nounces'data that is generated in RAM memory and written on the HDD. So if you have 1600000 nonces, you have to mine on 1600000*256KB = 409600000 KB = 400000 MB =390,625GB.I use 2000 instead of 8191.It takes less ram.
Correct me , if im wrong.

I was thinking the same because at the end the plot is here and it's working! Thanks!

Anyone can confirm that!?

can you explain "mklink destination_plots_name  source_plots_name "

i got 3 different disk connected to one pc. i have created 2 plot file (500 gb) and copied to other 2 disks. i started burst server and run miner pn 3 disks. is it correct?


tell e pls. how must be generate plots on hdd?
Example
hdd1: 0-100.000
hdd2: 100.000-200.000
hdd3: 200.000-300.000
and i must run mining on hdd1,hdd2,hdd3 ??
3 mine windows?
1 wallet server

you can use "mklink destination_plots_name  source_plots_name "and you can use one mine window and one wallet

Is there a way to query balance and mining stats using CLI?
Linux Server doesn't have a GUI and Lynx doesn't seem to work with it.

Also I read that a different wallet address is needed for each external hard drive, is that true?
Or can the same wallet address be used?
What about copying this install to a laptop, and just adjusting the plot size for it, then running it, same wallet address etc.

maybe https://github.com/BurstProject/burstcoin/blob/master/src/java/nxt/http/APIServlet.java contains the commands you are looking for ...

you don't need to use differenet wallet addresses ... just ensure all you plot files are linked to your miner/plots folder ...



What command would be used on which jar?

with the wallet running:
wget -qO - http://localhost:8125/burst?requestType=getAccount&account=BURST-ADDR-GOES-HERE

I got my BURST address by loading the wallet on another computer with a GUI.
I still get:

:~$ wget -qO - http://localhost:8125/burst?requestType=getAccount&account=BURST-XXXX-myaddress
[1] 1399
:~$ {"errorCode":3,"errorDescription":"\"account\" not specified"}


I've got 4TB for 5 days now, and no blocks yet, so I must be doing something wrong I think Tongue
All the logs look good though.

I have deadline around 50k-100k with 500GB and even hit a block that night.Something is wrong with your plots.

Overlapping nounces?

is your 4TB full of plots?
