Patrike, is there any way to change miner type from Managed Miner to Managed Profit Miner and back? Some tips?
It would be extremely helpful.
Is it not possible to create another miner for the same rig?
The problem here is now you are using two of your license counts for one rig. I currently have it set up this way, one managed miner, and one managed profit miner per rig. My 20 rigs are using all 40 licenses I've paid for. When i add my next rig, changing the miner type under different scenarios would end up being a huge inconvenience. There are times when i want auto-switching based on WTM profitability and other times i want to mine new coins that are not listed. Having to remove a profit miner and add a managed miner to the same host and Awesome has now gone from helping to obstructing.
I'm sure with the proper feedback and suggestions, Patrike will improve the software. Thats what i love the most about aweome miner, the support is first class.
Patrike, is there any way to tie the license limits to managed host instead of managed miners? Or maybe have settings for both managed miner and profit miner in the same profile, and just a switch as suggested above to toggle between the two for each miner?
Yeah I wish we could do things like enable or disable specific video cards or tell the profit miner to just do a specific thing for a while without having to create a new 'miner' and waste a license. Maybe the license terms would be fairer if we could only monitor or start a certain amount of miners at once, but could at least create as many as we want to play around and test things.
Yes I too have had to buy the 10 license version so that I can have 3 miners defined for each of my 3 rigs. Still very restricting, I would like to try many different setups.
1) You can still force the profit miner to mine a specific unlisted coin. In Options dialog, Coins&Profit section, you can add a user defined coin where you also can specify high profit value for it. Then add a pool using this coin and then add the pool as a "Custom pool" to the profit switcher (Profit switching section of the Options dialog). When the profit switcher looks at what is most profitable, your user defined coin will be number one.
2) If you only have Managed Miners (not profit switching), please use the concept of Managed Template to fast change between different configurations. This can be used instead of defining two Managed Miners for a single computer. See:
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/managedtemplate.aspx3) To enable/disable video card, I assume this is about adding specific command line parameters to for example Claymore miner and the other software you use. This can be configured per profit profile (Options dialog, Profit profiles), where you can specify command line per mining software. If you have one AMD profile today, you can add another one called "AMD 4 cards only", where you setup the command line parameters for that configuration.
In the Properties of your Managed Profit Miner, you can then change between "AMD profile" and "AMD 4 cards only" to get the different behaviors you have defined. There is no need for multiple Managed Profit Miners for that scenario.
