Topic: [Awesome Miner] - Powerful Windows GUI to manage and monitor up to 200000 miners - page 456. (Read 703512 times)

Not today, but I do get several requests for this so the plan is to improve the flexibility for these configuration scenarios.

If you open the Properties of this miner after applying the profile - is the information correct? What if you manually stop and then start the miner, is it starting with the correction configuration?
Can you also manually version on one of the Remote Agents that it's in fact the same version of Awesome Miner. Thanks!

It's correct that the new versions of Excavator are forbidden to be automatically download by Awesome Miner, as Nicehash EULA restricts this. That's one of the reason why I didn't prioritize putting any effort into this mining software. The other reason is that the API and entire setup of this mining software is a bit strange, and was changed a lot from their previous versions. I do understand that it could still make sense to support it, but Excavator didn't turn out to be so popular in the community anyway.

I'm getting a large number of questions and requests these days so even if this item is on the list of features to implement, it has not yet been a top priority. Thanks for your feedback on this.

Can you verify if MSI Afterburner shows up in the Task Scheduler (you find this on the Start menu in Windows) once you configured the MSI Afterburner auto start via Awesome Miner?

1) For Claymore Ethereum:  Can you manually download and extract this mining software into the path where Awesome Miner expect it? Does that work?
https://s3.amazonaws.com/awesomeminer-download/claymore_ethminer_v10.3.zip

2) For sgminer: Sgminer and Sgminer-gm are different software with different version numbers.
sgminer-5.6.1-nicehash-51-windows-i386
sgminer-gm-5.5.4
The folder name for sgminer-gm is correct in your diagnostics output

Please also note that when you run profit switching, the mining software selected by Awesome Miner will not be the same all the time. That's why you see Claymore being used at first, then sgminer and so on.

Which antivirus or security softare are you running?

I'm using coinsplit.io which has an optional 0.5% fee to auto split payments based on shares. It would be great to incorporate this!

This could be a very nice feature. I can already see that some pools return better % of hashrates into $$ than others. Perhaps a single % number per each pool would be super nice!

@patrike,

Is there any way we can apply a GPU profile by GPU instead of per RIG (i.e. set GPU0 Power Limit = 60% and GPU1 Power Limit = 80%)?

I appreciate the help but it is for sure not my AV.  It is a path issue for the most part

that's even more like antivirus is at work here, if you ever suspect you have already excluded AM and all its relevant folders from AV scan, you can try go to claymore's dual miner thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/claymores-dual-ethereum-amdnvidia-gpu-miner-v150-windowslinux-1433925 and manually download/extract the miner then pointing the path to wherever you extract the EXE and see if you hit any obstacles. you point to the EXE in the profit profile window if using profit miner (from the logs seems you are)

If i do that it downloads sg miner and cpu-opt but none of the claymore stuff

In addition now the paths are wrong for sg miner (it downloaded 5.6.1)
Starting to wish I did not buy this

I tried searching this epic thread but came up short so I apologize if this is a common easy fix...

For some reason the temperature of my AMD cards is not showing up in Awesome Miner. It was showing for all my cards when I first started using AM but somehow it has disappeared. The Nvidia temps still show up as the are supposed to.

Is there a setting somewhere I have overlooked?

Thanks!

like patrike said, AM only takes in whatever pool/whattomine/coinwarz feeds it or unless it is configured manually then presents the number as an estimation. If you accurately benchmarked every algo your device support say for several minutes each algo, you should be good.

statistics, 24 hour average is probably best since it reduced the sudden spiking factor...to think that for average people's hardware, you mine and until you get your mined share confirmed or cleared...it will take several hours at least, some even days, so you're never likely going to see a similar return/hash at the time you mined the coin and by the time you have the coin ready for exchange/exchanged. What is more with profit switching is that it IS prone to spike which inflates the actual revenue you'd get, when whattomine feeds current market price into AM and it decides to mine the coin, the particular coin would've already being pumped, likely more than halfway in its bull run or even more likely peaked...so by the time you get the coin...you are probably going to get the dumped rate, or at least normalized...

thus, if using current, expect frequent pool/algo switching and discount the peak rate by say up to 50% of maximum reported revenue.

if using 24 hour average, less switching and you probably only looking at discounting the maximum reported revenue by 20% or less...it's pretty accurate in my experience...and think about the other fees involved in exchanging automatically or manually.

AM has the function built-in, please refer to
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/managedsoftware.aspx

Once added please remember to disable predefined software on the same algorithm you wish to mine on your user defined software, or if not disabled, you have to manually order them at the individual profit profiles for your software to take precedence when AM determines which version to launch. Also just remember to re-benchmark once the software is setup, some might not bench via the benchmark function due to small incompatibilities of the forks and you'll have to manually input the hashrate reported when manually launching the software. If using managed profit miner, simply implode the hashrate on the algo you want to bench manually so it is on top of the calculated profit list in Online Services/Coins tab.

Hello I have been using Awesome miner for some weeks now and really like it! However, I have stumbled into a small problem, I find that the newest version of excavator is not supported by the managed software called "Excavator (BETA) 1.1.4a (nVidia GPU). The command arguments have probably changed. Therefore I can not run it as a profit switcher miner? This miner seems to be really good at a few algos now, I understand they have some kind of eula so you cannot redistribute it, but you could still update its API? Or would it be possible to add so one can add any miner and make it a profite miner?

I have the same path, user and password setup on both of my rigs and am having the same issue.

Please fix.  Thanks!!

I have the Afterburner software and remote server installed on a remote rig (all of them). However, when I reboot the ABRS does not start up. It is located in the same path on every rig and has the same User. There is NO password for each rig though. Is that the issue? How can I fix this for AM to start ABRS like it is supposed to?

With the latest update, none of my templates will take on remote rigs. I select a new profile to launch different mining software and they keep only starting the same software.

As an example, I was mining Cryptonite. I then want to switch to ETH. Select a different template for the managed miner and apply it. Software shutsdown and new software starts up. However, the "new" software is the exact same software from the previous profile. I have run the "Upgrade Remote Agent" on the remote rigs.

What am I missing or is this a new bug?

Hi all,

its possible use in AM different versions of ccminer, xmr-stack, etc.? Because they have different hashrate in some algos.

Thank you.

Thanks, that helps a lot. It would still be cool if we could specify fees at the pool level, though. We could use that for other things in addition to the standard pool fee --  like if one suspects a pool of taking an extra cut, or otherwise being inefficient, or if you want to factor in any autoconversion fees, or even some type of bonus.
