Ahh I see - next time read the readme ;-)

    --dev            Space separated list of cuda devices

In short, not --dev=0,1,2 but --dev 0 1 2
(no "=", no comma)
Found it!
--dev 0 1 2 works in AM, but not in the cfg file
dev=0,1,2 works in the cfg file, but not in AM

Thanks for the help guys!!

Did you (manually) try --list-devices to see which devices it sees? Did you try manually, locally, from the miner, NOT through AM, and does this work?
Not sure what you are asking specifically, but yes, if i go through the miner directly, I can make it run only 3 GPUs.

No, the readme says space separated but the config shows comma separated.
dev=0,1,2 is what I'm using successfully
dev=0 1 2 and the miner will only run GPU0

I have read the readme Smiley  And that's why I can get the miner to work..... but no luck when going through Awesome Miner


Go to Options->Profit Profiles. In the Profit switching profiles select the profile that applies to you, in my case "nVidia GPU". Then select "Edit" Click on the miner you want to use. Click on it, click Configure. Then Select "new" in which at this point you can specify the number of GPU's you want to use or detect from host per device.
Following your instructions but I can't click on "new" afte Configure, the button is greyed out and unclickable.  This is on DSTM Zcash Cuda Miner.

how can i change the server urls from zerg pool to EU?
EU server
-o stratum+tcp://europe.mine.zergpool.com: -u [-p ]

Tried to change under online service. All changes on predefined coins are lost after restart and doesnt work.
Tried to to add the coin unter custom doesnt work.
Theres btw no template for zergpool like for zpool.

Are you only looking to pass the dev=0,1,2  command through AM to DSTM miner? (I will be home in about an hour and will get back with you)
Also AM can individually enable/disable GPU's as well if that is the objective you are trying to do.
Yes, just that.  I just want to enable/disable GPUs as I'm planning to do some testing and want to run AM and NH at the same time.

I don't know for DSTM but in general with miners, either you use the config file (the simply run the exe with ZERO parameter), OR you pass parameters, in a batch or cmd file.
In general, you CANNOT do both.

If you've some specific parameters, then you may try to rename the config file as *.old for example, and pass ALL the parameters with AM.
Well, I was trying with both the dev command through AM and in the .cfg file with no luck.  At this moment, I've taken out all instructions from AM but the dev command is still in the .cfg file, still does not work.

I need to add the dev=0,1,2 option to the DSTM miner in AM but I have tried with no success to get AM to pass this option forward.  I've even tried going into the actual miner folder (C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\AwesomeMiner\zm_0.6_win_2\zm_0.6_win)and edit the zm.cfg file but it is ignored when AM starts up the DSTM miner.  Any help appreciated!

I believe you can pass custom command arguments to the miner via the options within each miner on AM. I can verify the exact location once I am home.
Please confirm how to do this, I look forward to it.  I've tried in all places I could think of:

I've tried Options > Pools > Equihash MPH pool (port 17023) > Advanced and added pool specific command line parameters
I've tried Options > Profit Profiels > Custom Profile > DSTM Zcash Cuda Miner > Configure and added command line parameters to mining software
I've tried right-click on miner > Properties > Command Line and added parameters to mining software
I've tried going to C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\AwesomeMiner\zm_0.6_win_2\zm_0.6_win and editing the zm.cfg file

Nothing works and it looks like the .cfg file is ignored when AM starts up the miner or AM injects it's own commands and thus ignores the .cfg file.   Sad

Didn't even think of the little pop up box! I will look into disabling it in the group strategy. That is what is likely causing it not to be able to be closed from AM.
The rules/trigger is quite comprehensive, especially when combined with custom scripts in batch or C# but didn't think of the window. Thank you so much!

(I don't have the exact translation, it's not in english here)

It's in group strategy: administration models, windows error reports, do not display the user interface for critical errors... set it to ENABLED

For Win7 I think it's all. For Win10 there is another one at the same place. If you can't find it I'll do.

I have found where to do it, once I get home I will apply this. Thank you!

Recently, I have had two rigs where the ZEC process just freezes and crashes. Awesome miner does not kill the process or restart it. I have to manually close it and then Awesome Miner restarts the process.

If it crashes and AM Remote doesn't see it, maybe it's because your miner is started using a start /B command for example?
Or maybe there is a windows message like "This program doesn't run anymore" (don't know the message in english) and this window doesn't allow AMR to kill it.
This window can be set up not to appear in Group Strategy.

Otherwise I've kind the same problem - I use Generic Miner, no API, sometimes it doesn't crash but produces 0 solution :-(

Which is why (for you and for me) this solution I proposed would help:

Hi folks,

I hope this is the right place to ask this question, so if not, I would appreciate any direction.

I bought a Premium license for AwesomeMiner yesterday.  I used Options | Registration to enter my email and the key I received via email.  I clicked the Verify button, and all looked fine.

But when I go to Options | Web, I CANNOT enable the API  - it's greyed out and inactive.  I've restarted AM, rebooted, no luck.

I bought the premium licenses specifically for API access, so this is a major issue for me.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

ws

Can anyone suggest why a rig with a single 1050 is seemingly performing better than a rig with a 1060 & 1050 in it?

In the pic below Garage has the single 1050 and Dell has the dual GPUs but is giving less revenue!

i have 3 nvidia rigs, all of them had AM 4.5. Updated 2 of them to 4.5.2 to test this new version. In both rigs with 4.5.2 it is not possible to edit location of miner .exe, because Configure button is disabled. It is there: Profit profiles -> nVidia GPU -> Edit, select any miner software on left and you can  see grayed out "Configure..." button. Once 4.5.2 just crashed when i was benchmarking Excavator (Latest).

depends on the miner, but just create 2 miners and add the command line option to use x,y,z cards on one miner and 1,2,3 on the other

There may be a more elegant way to do it as well, but the above should work I think

Not sure how to implement your suggestion on AM, really.  In NiceHash, I expect to just un-tick the GPUs and they will not be used, but I cannot find how to do the same in AM

I'm trying to find a way to get AM to only mine using 3 out of 6 GPUs?  I'm hoping to run some tests with GPUs 1-3 running on NH and GPUs 4-6 running AM.  Is this possible on the free edition of AM?  If not, which paid version supports this?

Thanks!

Hi,

Is there a way to activate a saved MSI Afterburner profile when mining a particular coin/algorithm? I know I can set power, mem and clock settings from AM but the Voltage tweaked profiles would be so much better.

Thanks
