ok so I got my GPU's and CPU's to work - but only if I add NiceHash to the Pools in the Profit Switching page - when I turn off Nicehash none of them will work and with Nicehash their hashrate is super low. If I log into Nicehash directly the hashrate is 5 times higher.

another question - and this is probably the dumbest one I have asked ever... is AM capable of measuring how many watts the miner is pulling?

The hashrate displayed in Awesome Miner is what the mining software is reporting. Depending on the algorithm used it should be possible to find out if the number shown at Nicehash really is realistic.

If there is some specific scenario you want me to investigate, please start the mining software with the Diagnostics button and share both this output and the Awesome Miner log file with me. Thanks!

Awesome Miner can get the power usage during benchmark of some nVidia based mining software (ccminer and a few more). In all other cases you need to enter power usage approximations in the Profit Profile.

Is there a way to change the default version of a particular miner that is being downloaded?

In particular, Z-enemy-1.22 is still defaulting to the CUDA 9.1 version instead of CUDA 10.0.

I'm familiar with the "Upload custom software" tool, but the 1st time I used it, I had to RDP to each miner to add an exception to the virus scanner for ..\AppData\Local\AwesomeMinerService, in addition to the exception I previously added for ..\AppData\Roaming\AwesomeMinerService. This can be a pain with more than a dozen Managed Miners.

I looked under Manages Software Z-enemy nVidia Miner, and noted the download URL is https://s3.amazonaws.com/awesomeminer-download/z-enemy.1-22-cuda9.1_x64.zip. So I took a look here:

https://s3.amazonaws.com/awesomeminer-download

But only the cuda9.1 versions of Z-enemy are there, so I figured putting in a custom Download URL reflecting the CUDA 10 version would not have worked.

Anyway, just curious if there's a better way to accomplish this than having to resort to using the Upload customer software tool.

Thanks for your feedback.

My understanding is that CUDA 10.0 is supported on quite old GPU's as well. The main issue is that everyone is not running with the latest driver versions which is a requirement. I know from the past that if I include a later version of mining software with latest CUDA, I do get at number of upset support messages about the new version is breaking the mining - even if it's stated in the release notes.

Already today Awesome Miner supports displaying the AMD and nVidia driver version on the Summary tab. Maybe the solution is to highlight this even more and give more visible indications if you run with too old driver versions. Then we can include the latest CUDA 10.0 versions of the mining software while still trying to minimize the issue with users running with older driver versions.

nVidia do have a list of required driver versions for each CUDA release:
https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-toolkit-release-notes/index.html

Would that be a good way forward? I'm actually very open to suggestions here.

To solve your specific request, I've made this URL available:
https://s3.amazonaws.com/awesomeminer-download/z-enemy.1-22-cuda10.0_x64.zip

any way to pass an windows environment variable from the client to the pool such as rig name ?

This is currently not supported by Awesome Miner, but I agree that it would make sense to support.
If it's of any help you can use the description field of the miner as part of the worker name by using the variable: [MinerDescription]

We have over 100 miners at our location. I want to create a rule so I get a single notification if 10 or more miners are offline all at the same time. How do I do that?

Thanks

Hi again,

You can create a trigger of the type "C# script" and use the script below to detect if the number of miners offline is 10 or more. You can then add any action you want for this rule, for example a Notification.

Code:

public class TriggerScript
{
	private ContextProvider Context = ScriptManager.Context;
	
	public List Check(List minerList)
	{
		const int TriggerIfNumberOffline = 10;
		List triggerList = new List();
		foreach (IMinerBase miner in minerList)
		{
			if (miner.IsRunningState == false)
				triggerList.Add(miner);
		}
		if (triggerList.Count >= TriggerIfNumberOffline)
			return triggerList;
		return null;
	}	
}

I used this script and set a notification as an action. When I do that, I immediately get 72 notifications from the rule. It's always the same miners that trigger the rule. When I check my list of miners, everything says it's online and working fine.

How can I use this so it only sends me a notification if all the miners have been off for 10 minutes or longer?

To only get a single notification, instead of one per miner, the notification action can be configured where you uncheck "Notify for each individual miner".

However, the scenario to only trigger if offline for at least 10 minutes in combination with triggering only if at least a specific number of miners have this problem is currently not possible to do in a good with with how the rules work today.

I will have to come up with a new concept for this where you can add certain restrictions to the rule to only trigger in case the conditions are true for a minimum number of miners.

after last update, my GPU's will not mine - they are nvidia gtx 1060's

I am now getting this error - the pools are set up - I have made zero changes to the profit profile - I am not sure what else I need to do. When I first added the GPU's they worked right after I set up the pools - I had to do nothing with the profit profile.

There can be changes of the available predefined pools between versions.

In general, the issue is that for the mining software you have enabled for the profit switcher, there are no pools made available for the profit switcher in the Options dialog, Profit switching section. If you still run into this issue after reviewing the configuration you can find more information in the Awesome Miner log file (toolbar: Tools -> Log File).

You can for example see entries like below, that can give an idea why certain algorithms are being excluded by the profit switcher.
Ignore algorithms not supported by software:
Ignore algorithms not enabled by profile:

I will try to figure it out but I made zero changes to anything, all I did is upgrade the AM software and none of my gpu's or cpu's will work. When I initially added them, they worked and all I had to do was put my wallet address in the profit switching screen. I never did anything on the profit profile screen.

Awesome Miner version 5.7.3

ASIC mining
- Obelisk SC1 and DCR1 ASIC miner support
GPU mining
- Mining Pool Hub predefined pool changes Monero, moving to CryptoNightV8
API
- Added HTTP API for configuring External Miners (/api/externalminers)
Mining software
- XMRig miner 2.8.3 for AMD, nVidia and CPU. Including CryptoNightV8 support.
- CryptoDredge 0.9.3, including CryptoNightV8

Thanks! SC1 does indeed work now.

One suggestion I have is to use the "MHS av" for profit reporting instead of "MHS 4s". "MHS 4s" shows an extremely large variation (300GH/s to 1.2 TH/s), every second to second, while "MHS av" stays close to the true hash-rate (550 MH/s).

for me the SC1 is not working?!
is there a another requirement? or do i have to enable (API) in the miner somehow??

SC1 comes with API access limited to localhost (miner) by default. You need to ssh to it and modify the cgminer.conf.

yes - i did that through the AM-Button "Configure API access..." i get a green OK - but still not working?!

Hello, tell me code in the trigger C#, when I need to get a notification that the miner has appeared on the network?

Is this for a miner already added to Awesome Miner? When the connection is first established to a miner, the trigger "Detect miner API connection established" is fired.
