Any idea how I can add sia to the balances section? tried various block explorers but can't get it to show up..
did you update the AM?
Yes, running the latest 4.4 version. I can see where I can add sia under options/balances..if there was a sia block explorer with a compatible API. I can't seem to find one anywhere....

for 24 hour profitability settings, why would you not set it to 1 minute or 5 minutes?  It doesn't switch very often anyway.  The problem I have with that at least on my system is it will basically just mine bitcore forever.

From my experience you need to be careful when selecting pools for this. AHashpool is most reliable in terms of not experiencing / showing crazy spikes, while zpool and MHP are the worst.

In my experience, ahashpool stats are totally misleding.  I deactivated it from my profit switch.

I find all the values shown by AM misleading, they simply have absolutely no relation with the reality. I tried with 3 separate test rigs and with the same settings and same GPUs one shows $100/day and the the other shows that is it making $5/day.

It seems that statistics and  profit that is shown are just random numbers.

PATRIKE, can you read it and explain why all profit values from AM are RANDOM NUMBERS ? It changes from one miner to another based on random numbers, nothing that has to do with reality or at least with the values from whattomine.com !!!

When I said the ahashpool numbers are misleading, I didnt say it was AM fault.  It looks like ahashpool reports incorrect numbers.

Another vote for Excavator.

On a 1080 I'm getting 1.03 MH/s on ccminer-klausT and 1.27 MH/s on Excavator.


Same here for me. I have spent a long time with this software (paying customer, premium edition) but it isn't without its flaws.

1. The best miner for my Nvidia cards (Excavator, but hsrminer before that) doesn't have support
...

I have similar results with Excavator. We really need the latest version to be supported in AM.

I saw that Excavator had changed their API to json format a while back, which is why it does not work with AM anymore. I could get them to connect but AM does not issue any commands to it, so it just waits.

some one have contact with excavator developers Huh?
it's a good point to check

Well the right way is for AM to adapt to the changes. I doubt Excavator guys will start supporting an obsolete API.

1. The best miner for my Nvidia cards (Excavator, but hsrminer before that) doesn't have support
2. The best miner for my Radeon Vega cards (XMR-STAK) has only external mining support.
3. The statistics implementation needs help. For something like Nicehash, "current" stats work fine, as I am getting paid on a per-hash basis. However, on everything else I get jacked around far too often. That leaves a 24 hours as my only other option, which, given volatility of the alt-coin market is really far too long. MPM has a "stability" calculation that is better, and it essentially builds a real-time ongoing database of prices. My preference would be to implement an ability for us to do continuous sampling and apply our own math via the scripting function. I'd implement a EWMA and then play with the lambda until I was happy that I was able to usually mine coins that are either stable or increasing in value to match the TTF numbers so they get auto-exchanged for somewhere close to the value I supposedly mined them at.

Don't get me wrong, the program is better than others out there, but I can't say I am happy with it, and I don't think there would be too much trouble to implement a few of these. I'd be more than happy to help test solutions (or even contribute to coding) if it would speed things up a little.

Hi all from Awesome Miner,
I use the new version of Awesome miner but see some strange figures.
Is this a bug in the program?

See the green,red and blue lines

Hi, I am running a Awesome Miner 4.4 with claymore 10.6
I have a 6x1050Ti rig. I have overclocked it with +150/+500 with 75% TDP.
Whenever I start the Claymore Miner with overclocked settings, it fails to start.
Here is the log:

If I reset the overclock settings, and then start the miner, it starts mining, and then i can apply overclocking, and so it will continue mining with the improved hashrate.
But I cannot do this everytime the miner restarts.

Can anyone help with this? Thanks

There is a run profit switch action in rules. Does the HTTP API also support this?

Another vote for Excavator.

On a 1080 I'm getting 1.03 MH/s on ccminer-klausT and 1.27 MH/s on Excavator.

I'm interested in Excavator new versions as well Smiley
Could be possible to update it, please?

Hi guys.

Does this program support EWBF miner?

Yes, it's built in.


Quote
If so, is there any guide how to set it up ?

You don't need to set it up.  AM will set the command line correctly.  You just need to define a pool, a miner, and then tell the miner to use EWBF on that pool.  AM does all the work from there.

Is this program heavy on resources  ? CPU/memory/GPU
Thanks!!!  Smiley

Not especially, no.  I run it on a simple virtual machine on one of my low-end vmware nodes.  The node has a low-end Athlon 5350 CPU.  I gave the VM two cores and 4GB of RAM.  It runs fine... runs an average of 15% CPU on that piddly VM with the resources given to it.

Ok perfect. And please tell me, is there any decrease of Sols when using AM ? I want to stay at max Sols obviously. Thanks!
no there isn't any, AM uses the miners you want it to use also AB

I've never encouraged this error before:
Code:
Connection aborted by the remote computer.

I relocated S9 farm, changed the LAN subnet and added all miners again to the awesomeminer, I connected to all of them (old batches) except of two (new batches), I did try everything I could find in config and properties but with 0 luck, I know I'm missing the simple config or something like that,
any help would be much appreciated

Are all the S9s on the same subnet as the computer that runs AM?  Are there any conflicting IPs?
0 conflicts and they are on the same subnet of course, I think that AM can't access those 2 S9s because of API maybe? But what changed after just relocation except the ip address itself? nothing

Hi Folks.

My setup is up and running and i have 2 more questions:

Question 1:
Is it possible to extend the web interface of Awesome Miner to include windowsUptime in the overview? I have seen that it is mininal js, but i am not an expert in that. But as I can see that information ithe "summary-section" of any miner, the information is available and it shouldnt be to much hussle to modify the web page in the miner overview to show that information as well.

Question 2:
My Rigs did went offline because the miner software tried to restart several time without success, however, I have not seen a rule that is causing that entry. So where is it configured that we are trying to restart the service and stop trying after X attemps? My solution is a manual rule to restart the entire rig in case we exceed the miner software restart option threshold. But I would like to extend the current rule (if it is a rule), which is logging that we exceeded the threshold with an restart rather than creating a manual job. So, where can i find that rule?

A bug when miner gets disconnected from the pool.

Sometimes when pools have too many connections they disable new connections for a period of time to a specific algo. In this case AM remains stucked with the last value AM received from the mining instance of ccminer and does nothing to fix that.

I believe it would be better to show income statistics based on submitted (and also accepted shares) , instead AM not remains without any refresh to the last hash rate that was submitted by ccminer  even hours ago.

If AM waits for hours for an updated hashrate from ccminer and does not take time into consideration it is not the correct behavior. It should have a timer that checks every x seconds the received hashrate from the miner, with one minute delay when miner is started to allow all GPUs to be started and send hash rates. Like this if one pool / algo server is offline, it will change to the next most profitable algo from the list.


Did anyone tried to find a solution to this problem ?

When one tweaks the profit option for Time and Percentages does Time stand for the minimum amount of time AM will allow the rig to stay on its last job (whatever pool/algo it was on) What happens after the time lapses? it will redirect ONLY if there is something offering a profit greater than the %percentage that is set?

Yes, you got it mostly.  The time is just the amount of time that will pass before AM re-calculates "best coin or algo" profit values from the statistics it gets from either Whattomine (if you are mining individual pools or pool groups)... or it rechecks the enabled Online Services that you have enabled on profit miners.  If you are mining individual pools or pool groups, there is also another time setting to pay attention to on the Statistics tab in the Options.  That time setting is how often AM will check Whattomine or Coinwarz for updated statistics.

I dont fully follow when some of the posts talk about setting the values so that your rig doesnt jump around too often but yet doesnt miss out on the peaks?

If I understood how it worked a little more I could possibly run some tests with that idea in mind to see whats best.

The more I read the more I retain (although its in small bits)

Thanks for your help so far gents

I'll just requote what I wrote a few weeks (and a few pages) back:

Quote from: puwaha

Let's say you switch to mine a coin that has a 2 minute block time on say Zpool.  You mine your share, and you get a percentage of the reward for that block.  But now, you have to wait for say 10 confirmations to mature before it's sent to the exchange.  That's now 20 minutes you are waiting for the coin to mature before it gets sent to the exchange.  Now, let's say it's a mildly popular coin, and it's gets sent to the exchange... minimum 2 minutes of that coin's block time if Zpool has enough of that coin built up to make it worth their while to send to the exchange.  We are up to 22 minutes.  That transaction is going to take another 10 confirmations before the exchange makes it available to trade.  We are now up to 42 minutes.

What are the chances that your coin is worth the same amount when you started mining it until it reaches the point where it can be traded on the exchange 42 minutes later?  Not very likely.  There are thousands and thousands of miners that use auto-switching algorithms and were mining the same coin you thought was hot in that moment.  That shoots up the difficulty, and the massive dump on the exchange(s) sends the value of the coin down.

A 24 hour profitability evens out those nuances, and I would even argue that a longer period is necessary.  You want to be mining a coin that is consistently in the top spot... not in the moment.

But, this is my opinion... there are other perspectives.
