Does this have any type of switching prevention or other formula like multipoolminer does to stop you from mining every single spike on a coin?   As it is now, my choice is current stats which means I'm typically mining a coin for one or two minutes that by the time it gets exchanged is nowhere near as profitable or I'm using 24hr stats which means I'm basically just mining bitcore.

I am really sorry if this is already reported.
In Options -> Managed software -> Algo, if I enter an "user defined command line argument" (for instance, "-i 25" for setting wanted intensity for that algo), miner startup fails.
Using "diagnostics", I can see it reads wrong command line parameter.
This is useful in profit switching, since each algo could perform better with a different intensity parameter.
Tested with ccminer 2.2.4, autodownload.

Fixed, if I enter "algo -i 15" it works correctly: this command line replaces the default one, I thought it was an additiona parameter.
Thank you.

Suggestion:  I run AMD rigs and I run Nvidia rigs.  There are pools that I will never use with AMD and there are ones I will never use for Nvidia.  It would be nice if the pool list could filter out the pools I don't want so I don't even have to look at them (I have a LOT of pools defined).  I'm thinking you could add a selector on the miner setup where you select AMD or NVidia and also on the pool setup.  It's a minor thing but would be helpful.  I suppose you could even take this concept to ASICs as well.

Thnx a bunch...

Claymore's Cryptonight, Ethereum and ZCash miners all work, SGMiner works. Mostly it lives on Ethereum, sometimes I manually switch to Cast XMR when I notice the Cryptonight prices go up on my CPU miners since Cast is so much faster than Claymore.

In terms of Algos from my benchmark list:

Blake 2b
CryptoNight
Equihash
Ethereum
Groestl
Lyra2REv2
Myriad-Groestl
Qubit
Scrypt
SHA-3
Skein
X11

I believe there is a bug with Claymore dual mining etherium and dcr/pasc possibly when using nicehash.

With nicehash configured for to check for current profitability, when the miner runs Eth + DCR despite under the miner view details that Eth + Pasc profitability ($2.71) > Eth ($2.65) > Eth + DCR ($2.46).

Under process information it shows AM will continue to load DCR by selecting -dcoin dcr instead of pasc.

Is there a setting that I am missing to set? It seems like AM keeps defaulting to DCR but I can't figure out what I need to change.

Hi everyone can someone tell me which algos and miners work with profit swiching while mining with vega...

Has anyone been able to mine LUX using AMD and sgMiner? I cannot get it working for the life of me. It just gpu not detected every single time.

The past days came with a lot of errors when miner tries to connect to mining pools like zpool, hashrefinery and last 12 hours also ahashpool.
It seems all few pools that are preconfigured in AM are overloaded and refuse new connections.

Is it possible to add also some more pools in AM default installations to allow users to dissipate load, because too many miners on the same place is affecting all of us .

It is a problem because for pools it is like a ddos attack.

Can you add some more pools that have  statistics api for integration ? Or anyone has a list of reliable pools to use besides default ones that are promoted by AM default installation ?

it can be only one owner who bought this mod, but he has 3,000 vorkers, that's the answer for you. Buy yourself this c-mod and work on it, I'm not so rich to pay 0.5 btc. if I wanted it, it was my revenue for the year, provided that I would not withdraw money to my card


options- rules - dead device detection
on this path, look and tune as you need, I have a reboot pc at the dump card

I have raised some of the points you are making and Patrike says improvements are coming... 

I have been using AwesomeMiner free edition for awhile, but today I decided to go to the premium version, since now I have more rigs and I would like to check its overclocking functions.  Some issues I have found:
- "GPU Settings" dialog only shows GPU0, GPU1 and so on.  No model information.  I have tried to use the "map to system monitoring" and it didnt help (only the list on the bottom is updated, but not the one on GPU Settings;
- It doesnt keep the overclocking settings after reboot.  Actually, only the Power Limit is kept, while core/mem clock go back to zero;
- It takes 2 or more tries, clicking on "GPU Settings" to make it load the list of gpus, after reboot.
- In one of my rigs, GPU10 isnt affected by the GPU settings.
- I have tried to use the auto loading of GPU profiles at the miner, but it just allowed me to load one profile (I supposed it will be applied to all gpus).  In rigs with more than on gpu model, this wont help;

Is there any solution for these issues?

Thank you

I'm a new user to Awesome Miner, so pardon the question that may have an easy answer.

I want Awesome Miner to purely monitor, and restart if it fails my current session of CCMiner.  I'm mining using the x17 algorithm against Yiimp. 

How do I configure Awesome Miner to monitor, and restart my own command in the case of failure.  I'm running NVidia 1060's 6G, 4 of them, with 2 more on the way. 

I really like the idea of the software, but can't get it to do what I thought it could do.

Thanks!

Hey, I found the hosts screen (options, managed hosts) and deleted the duplicates, reassigned the affected miners and success.  Everything is happy.

Wow, amazing, you figured it out. Please stop asking about it here. If so many people have it, maybe it's easy to find?
Here's some suggested search terms for google:
"How do I search for things"
"What is the best antivirus"

Thanks for the answers!  Not exactly what I was hoping for, for at least now I know.  I'm still learning AM and I might throw Win10 on a rig or two to see how it goes.  The rigs all have 240GB SSD drives (for virtual memory for GPU's which can be as high as 99GB)  at and least G4400 CPU's, so they are capable of running windows.  There looks to be excellent support for restarting remote windows miners when they misbehave, which they will. 

So you mean all 3000 x17 miners from zpool paid for X17SPmod   version ?  There is a different optimized x17 version somewhere, I think, because otherwise sp_ just got 18 million dollars from selling just x17SPmod version only on zpool , and it is insanely too much.

What do you think ?

I don't actually, but for the two problem miners, they both have duplicated hosts so I thought something must be messed up.  Regardless, I want the ability to remove hosts. I might just wipe AM and do a fresh install to clear it all out and see if I still have issues.

*edit* - actually just found the screen where you can delete hosts so I'll clean them all out and re-add them.

There are no profit switching triggers for rules currently in AM.  It has been a requested feature.

You can setup the scripts to manually switch as an action though.  You'd need to setup the SSH scripting through putty or plink as in this guide:  https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39361444/automating-command-script-execution-using-putty

So, in theory, you could use AM to manually run your user-defined actions to call putty so that it can execute some commands (as per nvoc's documentation https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/mining-os-nvoc-1854250).  When you are in your miner view, there is quick access to these Actions in the bar at the top.  If nothing else, you will be prepared with all of your Actions defined if some profit switching triggers get added in AM later, or someone offers a plugin to do so.

There is a C# script interface for the trigger where you could define your own profit switching trigger, but that functionality would have to come outside of AM.



Patrike has mentioned that is could be a possibility, but I think that's going to take a bit of time... mostly because no two linux distros are the same.  I don't envision that a remote agent for a "roll your own" linux system would be supportable.  Patrike would have to offer his own linux distro that he knows and can program around to incorporate the remote agent and known paths for the mining software and settings.  Can you imagine all the posts here with "I can't figure out how to set firewall settings in Linux to allow remote agent communication", or "how do you overclock in linux"... all of which would have nothing to do with AM.



Not all mining software will expose those values through their API.

There's no right or wrong answer here, only what your priorities are.  The Current setting will make AM check the current values at Whattomine, and the 24 hour setting will make AM check the 24 hour values at Whattomine.  AM is agnostic in this decision... it's yours to make.

Why would you choose one over the other?  Using the current values will attempt to keep you on the most profitable coin... at that point in time.  This can and will cause peaks and valleys in your overall profits because coins don't stay "most profitable" for very long.  The 24 hour values will help smooth out those peaks and valleys to keep you mining a "mostly" profitable coin longer.  I've written extensively about profit switching in this thread, I ask that you go back or search this thread for my musings and opinions on the matter.

Remember though, the Current and 24 hour setting would only apply to individual coins that you are mining, not to Online services like zpool, MPH, and the like.  If you setup a dozen of your favorite coins as individual pools and put them in a pool group then AM can profit switch on that pool group and will use the Whattomine statistics including your Current/24 setting to help AM decide when to switch.
