Yes, please go to Options dialog, Profit switching and uncheck Nicehash and enable some other pools.

Hi guys,

now i have a new problem and im not able to fix it. Now I use Awesome Miner (Free) with two Miners. one for CPU and one for GPU. I like to mine on miningpoolhub but ive got everytime error messages like:

What can I do?
I need to see the complete command line that started cpuminer to help. Right now it's only possible to see that Ccminer cannot connect to Mining Pool Hub - but not anything related to Awesome Miner.

Is this Mining Pool Hub related only? I assume many of the pools are under stress right now when people are moving from Nicehash.

Is there a way to disable some certain gpu when using auto-switch?

I know I can use the command "-d 1,2" to disable gpu0 when using regular miner config but I couldn't find a way to do the same with auto switch.
I tried to add it in the mining software config in the profit profile but it doesn't work.
Hi,

The difficulty is that this is unique per mining software. And different mining software are quite often using their own order of the GPU's. Awesome Miner do allow you to specify this per Profit profile per mining software and it sounds like you found the correct settings (Options dialog, Profit profile section, edit your profile, select mining software and then Configure). Wasn't it applied correctly? Please verify with the Diagnostics button to see which command line arguments is being added.

As you know Nicehash is down today. When using profit switching on a antminer what happens when a pool is dead? If the most profitable pool is dead, does it use the second most profitable?
If you have more than one pool on your Antminer, your Antminer will automatically failover to the next pool in the list according to priority - so it's fully compatible with the profit switching feature in Awesome Miner.

Hi.
Patrike I need your help in very first step.

I'm trying to create a Managed Profile Miner.
My steps are:

1. Add Host with IP adress - it is ok. Succesfully connected to Awesome miner
2. Add Profit Managed Miner with host in step #1
3. Press a button - GPU setting - Setting via AM and MSI Afterburner
4. Now I can see all of my GPUs of Rig#2
5. Next I press a button Map to system monitoring and nothing is happenings?
6. Button Start(in upper menu) is not active

Where I have to dig in here?

I have 1 GPU on a computer where AM is running, it is difined like local miner Rig#1 and this is working well on Managed Profit Switching with all predifined pools are activated and with my BTC address printed in.

I settled the MsiAfterburnerServerAgent with AM Remote Agent on my Rig#2.

What should I do to start minig with My Rig#2

And I'd like to point out on some moments of AM

1. I have about 100 Antminers of different types which are united in different groups.
When some of groups are opened it is not possible to see the main group string which shows summary statistic of a group. Can you attach groups to the top of the screen, so it could be always seen and be easy to deploy or to collapse. Now when I scroll my miners down the main string of a group is being go away.

2. The options Sort by miners name is not working properly. For example a miner with IP 192.168.0.117 is going before a miner with IP 192.168.0.56

3. Can you Add in main string of a group an ability to sort a data in columns, espesially a column Status.
Because when you have some of the miners are deactivated it is not possible to apply a command to the whole groups of miners.

4. Sometimes AM shows me asics as Deactivated, so it is not possible to apply any comands to it, while when I connect to asic via browser with IP address it is connected and colud be rebooted from inner menu of asic.

First about the GPU miner. Maybe you can send me a screenshot together with the Awesome Miner log file (Toolbar: Tools -> Log file) so I get the complete picture of this issue.

Thanks for your suggestions. I will use this as input for future improvements. Thanks!

2) About sorting - it's text based and not number based and is actually looking at the description of the miner. If you don't have a description, the IP address is used as descripton

4) Is the miner mining properly when this happens? Sometimes the cgminer process can hang if it doesn't work out well with the pool, and then a miner can show up as Disconnected in Awesome Miner.

Hi,
First of all, thanks for everyone (and especially STSMiner) helping out to answer the questions in the thread. Because of the Nicehash incident, I've had a very large number of e-mail messages from new users the last 1 - 2 days.

I will read up on the questions from the last two days, but if I miss anything any issue that hasn't resolved already, please let me know.


 Shocked  Grin

Just so you know, I bit the bullit -- took the $70.00 option before the price increase.  Thanks for the software, it's the best one around out of the 4 I've tried.
Gets 2 thumbs up from me.

Hello Patrike,
Sometimes the windows process crash at the begin of the mining, and windows debugging is asking to close/force stop the window.

Can you add a watch dog on the awesome miner client , if the miner didn't start or speed is equal with 0 , to identify the Process PID and close it? Like that the Awsome miner server will be able to proper start the mining window again, otherwise it get stuck, Server side see it as a running process, but client is not running at all.
Thanks,

Hi,
Although I've already answered this one via PM. I'm also providing the answer here because it may be useful for others as well.

The solution is to configure Windows to not show those crash dialogs. They are preventing the process from exiting and it will still be considered running by both Windows and Awesome Miner.
Please see this link for instructions: https://superuser.com/a/715645
After that modification, Awesome Miner should detect it as a crash and simply restart the mining process.

Hello,

Would it be possible to support the ZAR currency (South African Rand) in Awesome Miner? Mining is quite popular here so I think there would be a solid base of people that would benefit from this.

Thanks  Smiley
This will be included in the next release.

Greetings patrike,
I intend to use AM for profit switching on hashrefinery.
I added a few missing algos (xevan, tribus, bitcore) and added them  in options-> "online services" section using hashrefinery predefined template values (with their specific port numbers and API values, ofcourse).
But they do not show up in "online services" tab.
Skein and Skunk (which are predefined by AM) show up, but not the ones I added manually.
So I tried adding those three missing algos to "online services", but with zpool values, and lo and behold, they showed up under online services, for BOTH zpool AND hashrefinery.
So what am I doing wrong? Is it a bug or a feature?
How come adding custom algos works for zpool but not for hashrefinery?
Thanks.
Hi,
Maybe you can send a screenshot of the configuration (via PM or mail if you want), that you made to the Hash refinery settings in Online services - so I can reproduce. Thanks!

Hi Patrike is it possible to set the power limit to %50 at once for example at 5.00pm and set them at %85 percent at 00.00am.but i need to set them all at once not one by one and i cant seem to make the afterburner integration work and i am using afterburner for overclocking.and also is it possible to set them automatically between the hours i wanted.

Thanks
That's currently not supported because the clocking isn't part of the rules yet. But I like the idea of being able to do that, so I put it on the list of features to support in the future.

Hi Patrike,

Would it be possible to add a rightclick "Edit Profit Switching Profile" choice in the context menu of each rig ?

Going to options, switching profiles, searching for the profile, clicking on edit is very far to update my hashrates in the profile.

Go to Options > Profit Profiles > AMD GPU > Click edit

Untick all the miners and pick the one that mines Zcash (12.6)

Test it.

You can change miners via here.

Is there any other alternative to awesome miner for AMD card configs ? rx 470 etc.?

Not that I know of that is as good as this software.

Thank you for your reply , I have set awesominer up on a different AMD system , but using zpool is giving me some terrible coin choices Decred , which is one of the worse on the market at the moment , yet when using my Nvidia card , using zpool and Awesomeminer I am getting good results..

To find out what the problem is, click select the miner and click the Diagnostics button in the toolbar. This will open a window that specifies the exact command line arguments Awesome Miner uses to launch the mining software together with additional information from the mining software that could indicate what the problem is. Please review this information to find a solution.

Post the output here so I can see it. (Remove your wallet address from the output)
