Patrike, this MS software has 2 ways:
1) uninstall the software which has problem with uninstallation
2) try to fix the problem

If choose the second way it will do something, but will not fix the problem.
If uninstall what will be with the settings? Is it possible to use backup and restore to keep the settings as they are or all settings will be deleted after uninstall?

Your settings should be fine, it only uninstall the application itself without any data files.

Please add "Reboot via web" as an Action in Rules for Antminer.
What you can do is to open the Properties for an External Miner, Advanced section, where you can enable "Perform reboot operation via web interface instead of SSH".

Now you can use the standard Reboot action (add an action of the type Miner Command -> Reboot) and it will use the web-based reboot.

Thanks. That works.

for people with AM licenses, is there a way to access the firmwares without paying dev fees? and how does that work for those that solo mine? is the dev fee 3% of the time? 3% of the hash rate? 3% of payment - when/if they get paid?
For S9, T9+ and L3+ you have the option to either use 2% mining fee or 3% mining fee. For S17/T17 there are only the 3% option. The firmware with 3% mining fee doesn't require any Awesome Miner license. There are no "2%" option available for S17/T17.

As this firmware is offered as a partnership with a firmware development team, we are not in control of the mining fees ourselves although we do get a part of the fee. For this reason we will never have the possibility to offer a firmware without the mining fee.

Please note that on S17/T17 you can get massive hashrate gains (30-40%) by running this firmware, making it very profitable to run even if there is a mining fee.

The mining fee consist of two pools named DevFee that are running mining in parallel. If your displayed hashrate is 50TH/s using a 3% mining fee firmware, 48.5TH/s goes to the pool you have configured to use. What kind of payout you get from your pool (none, low, very high) doesn't matter for the firmware - it's not taking your payout, only redirecting a part of the hashrate  somewhere else.

Please let me know if you have any more questions on this. Thanks!

patrike hi.
i check  something, i install new hive and awesome, overclok work fine,but before 2-3 restarts,attach screenshots
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1LJHDW2HF-vaLNYp6Ztyo_ve6HvhjJNVM
check "clock fail" screenshot, also there are a couple of errors with actual payot


i found oveclock solution
just  every system start
service-stop.sh
service-start.sh

2. 
You can add https://github.com/NoncerPro/Kadena/releases

3.
I also tried to configure port forwarding for local web server. in external ip. this is possible ?

4.

I have a question once once I paid for cloud service. but for control it was absolutely necessary to keep the main pc on, now has something changed?
Thanks for the suggestions and feedback.

3) Yes, this is possible but the exact configuration steps required depends on your router. Awesome Miner isn't involved in the port forwarding, but it will work fine as long as it's configured correctly.

4) You always need Awesome Miner running in order to use Cloud Services - both for monitoring and for performing operations.

4. To your knowledge, do you know that if AM supports profit switching for the BlackMiner Mini(+) series? like if I get a few of them and if I can use the custom defined pool groups on them as I do with Managed Profit Miner GPU rigs? (I know the website states AM do support the F1 but was unsure about the other models).

5. If 4 is doable, another non-essential question would be if there are any method to add them (obviously in reasonable numbers) to AM if I was to host them behind a NAT, currently using NeoRouter for the VPN for remote miners, not sure what's the most efficient and uncomplicated way to add these standalone FPGA/ASIC in similar fashion.
Profit Switching of BlackMiner isn't supported today, but these devices can be monitored by Awesome Miner. I've promised another user (@STSMiner) to look into the profit switching for these miners.

It's actually more the BlackMiner that doesn't support the standard pool prioritize commands and this is what the External Profit Switcher requires from an ASIC/FPGA in order to work. Awesome Miner would have to use SSH to reconfigure the pools and algorithms of this miner in order to do profit switching.

The typical way to add FPGA/ASIC miners is to use the Network Scan feature (via New Miner button in the toolbar) and scan for Cgminer using an IP address range. With the VPN connection, I assume it's possible for Awesome Miner to access these miners with a unique IP address for each miner?

Hi Patrike,

Thanks for confirming that you are still looking at this with the Blackminers F1 devices, would be great if this can be done.
Thanks for all nice feedback. Yes, Blackminer profit switching will be supported. It requires some design changes and new development in Awesome Miner.

Happy new year !!!



update ::::

workaround for lack of overclocking on linux
cd awesomeminer-remoteagent
nano  script.sh
paste

sleep 10
systemctl stop  awesome
sleep 3
systemctl start awesome


sudo nano /etc/rc.local

paste before "exit 0"

/home/user/awesomeminer-remoteagent/script.sh

p.s   
correction found, which means the problem is definitely there

Hi Patrike,

@moppidoo,

I've passed on all the info for the API calls and config structure for the F1 miners to Patrike, hopefully we will see something that can be beta tested in the new year.

Patrike has done a lot with Awesome Miner since version 1, and I must congratulate him on a job well done for all the hard work and time that he has put into it's continued development with suggestions / idea's that have been put forward to him from the vast user base that it has.
Most of the time Patrike has come through with 99% of requests to improve this or add this feature, it's nice to see a developer of a program take his customer base idea's and feature requests and add them.
So, people, please be be patient with Patrike, he's there to help us the best way he can etc ...

Patrike,

Once again, thank you for your continued development of this program.

STSMiner.

Thanks Patrike!

regarding the VPN now that I think about it again, maybe I can just invest in a pair of VPN routers, that'd probably make it less complicated.

Cheers!

Hi Patrike,

First of all happy holidays to you and all the Awesomers!
Hi again. Thanks, you too!

1. Is it possible to collect accumulated power usage data in the mining history of the managed (profit) miners? That would be helpful for me to gauge efficiency and negotiate hosting costs with off-site provider, and something like a hashrate graph but in power consumption would be a great bonus so I can visually present the case of no mining, no charge for unused electricity Tongue
This isn't supported today, but I see your point that it would make sense to support.

2. Since ZergPool was able to implement several CryptoNight variants into Yiimp mining, I find myself using XMRig at times to be included in profit switching (Btw, using Nvidia, I know, they are crappy for CN but doesn't hurt to have them in profit switcher), is it possible for you to add support for the JSON config section in the Profit Profile's software section like Claymore/SRBMiner, I hope you know what I was referring to, Right Click Miner -> Edit Profit Profile -> Mining Software Priority List -> Select Software in question -> Configure... where you got the override config.txt content if say you select SRBMiner.

3. Can it be corrected that when NanoMiner (mining RandomX) via CPU to show actual CPU power usage rather than the idle GPU stats?
Thanks for the suggestions. I will investigate.

4. To your knowledge, do you know that if AM supports profit switching for the BlackMiner Mini(+) series? like if I get a few of them and if I can use the custom defined pool groups on them as I do with Managed Profit Miner GPU rigs? (I know the website states AM do support the F1 but was unsure about the other models).

Hello, I have been using your product almost from the very beginning.
thank you fo you work
Thanks for the feedback. I will have to investigate some of the point you bring up in more detail, but I will also give a few comments and questions below.

In some cases I also think the features you are referring to are working fine in general, but you have found a specific scenario where it doesn't work in your setup.

1 ) madly infuriates 2 things.
first, after reset failed pools, miner starts automatically why?
I can agree that this may not be the preferred behavior. I've changed it now.

3) a lot of problems with statistics
1.1 i can't do overwide coin algorithm, for example I needed override coin algo myriad_argon2d (algo argon2d-dyn) to (algo Argon2d-4096),
change instead muriad_groestl.
I just tested and it works fine for this coin. Please note that you need to specify a "Map from algorithm" for these multi-coin algorithms. If you enter "Argon2d" here, it will work. This is only required for coins with multiple algorithms.

4) why it is not said how to take Coin calculators additianal JSON url. I spent sooo much time....
On the CoinCalculators web site you will find a JSON button/link on each coin page. This is the JSON URL to enter in Awesome Miner. This is required for coins not included in their main listing.

6) after added  https://whattomine.com/coins/321-ckb-eaglesong.json , Revenue= 0 in coins TAB
Some coins and algorithms requires a specific "Exponential Factor" to be calculated correctly. WhatToMine doesn't provide this information and Awesome Miner assume 32 by default as it works for the majority of coins and algorithms. For a number of algorithms, Awesome Miner do use a different number.

For this specific algorithm, Awesome Miner didn't have any knowledge and assumed 32 when it should have been 0. I've added the correct number for this algorithm now. It's also possible to manually configure this Exponential Factor in the Properties dialog of a coin.

7) your faq is very incomplete
The FAQ is intended to answer the most common questions I get. If there are some specific area where you think the FAQ or Documentation should be more details, please let me know.

I recently found out that you made the linux version   
I was very happy, but not for long, didn’t it be difficult for you to take the guide step by step. with lots of plugins and packages. because I’m a confident Linux user, I spent a lot of time on tuning, and as a result, half of the miners do not work, there is no overclocking only the control of fans and voltage!
What a number of users are doing is to take an existing Linux mining OS like HiveOS and simply install Awesome Miner Remote Agent on top of it. Then you don't have to spend time installing and configuring GPU drivers. This will also ensure that the setup is correct for overclocking and you will find that Core Clock, Memory Clock and so on also are available.

It's of course also possible to setup a Linux GPU mining system from scratch, but it may be a bit more time consuming to get everything up and running.


8 )
he most horrible ! Why do we need ACTUAL PAYOUT if it does not work !!!! and do not take into account when switching, if you do not believe me, I can take 20-30 screenshots!
The profit is calculated correctly and taking this setting into consideration as it should. I just verified both with and without Actual Payout enabled. Please let me know if you found out a case where it doesn't work.

After the discussion last time, I did go ahead with a few changes where it was made much easier for a user to select a good configuration. The users are given these four options since several months ago:
- This computer
- This network
- Any computer (less secure)
- Custom IP access rule

By introducing "This computer" and "This network", Awesome Miner made it easier for the users to do the right thing without having to type IP addresses and access rules. Users doesn't have to learn and write the IP access syntax correctly, as Awesome Miner will secure it for you.

I did however not remove the "Any computer" option, but it's clearly stated in the user interface that this option is "less secure".

The changes made was clearly a move in a good direction by making it easier to select a good configuration and warn about the option that isn't secure.

I understand your point about removing this "less secure" option completely from the user interface. It would of course make it even more likely that a user pick a good configuration. I will make this change in the next release - to remove the option "Any computer (less secure)". Thanks!
Much better Smiley

I could imagine there is one more to add that would also be needed:
Something like "This remote IP"
i.e. the internet IP address of the computer running AM, if the miners are off site.
There are various ways to look it up.
Thanks for the feedback and suggestions!
