Topic: [Awesome Miner] - Powerful Windows GUI to manage and monitor up to 200000 miners - page 528. (Read 703512 times)

This helped so now CPU mining works ok with alt exe file. Many thanks you've been great support.

AwesomeMiner has predefined programs for algos, when you select more than 1 program. You could do this by doing a profile group, where a single program is assigned to a single profile and you select the desired algos. The problem with this is that would take me 2 weeks work to benchmark all my cards and sit there assigning algos to programs for all of them. What I'm saying is a way that the program would just try them all and keep the faster. A "optimized software profit miner" of sorts.

OK, I think I found a way to get Awesome Miner to work the way I want.

I had to untick Zpool in the Managed Profit Switching section and tick Custom pools to get it to work with the following settings (brief details below).

If I did not do the above, Awesome Miner would only mine the Blake2s algo even if I did not have it selected or in the pool group (strange bug ?).

I made custom pools for Zpool and custom services for Zpool for the algo's that I want to mine using a 'My Profit Miner'.

I had to disable all the pre-defined services (exclude them from the profit switching) and create the ones that I wanted in the custom section.

I managed to get ccminer 2.2.2 to mine bitcore.
I also got the custom miner (user defined mining software) to work for xevan algo so that it switches to that miner for that algo when it becomes profitable.
(CCMiner_xevan_cuda9)

The stock / built in pools don't allow you to customize the commands for the miner, so the only way was to make custom pools and then put them in a pool group so that they get auto switched based the profit via the online services and can also be seen via the Online Services tab.

Hi, Patrik.

I've bought an AM for monitoring my asics, plus I have several rigs which are working under NicehashMinerLegacy. I'm quite satisfied how NML works and want AM only shows me profit and temperatures of GPUs of those rigs. How can I do that?

Hi Patrike,

Let me explain the feature I am looking for in a more detailed way.

When I configure the pool connection through the GUI I am asked to set the Worker Name.


I would like to provide it using an environment variable that is set on the rig.
As an example, I would like to set it to %COMPUTERNAME%. So that on the pool I can check the single workers and I do not have to set them all manually in the GUI.

I have tried this, I can not get it to work to mine Bitcore using the ccminer-sp-bitcore 2 miner.

Would be great if there was a way to modify the pre-build pools for Zpool and add new pre-defined pools somehow.

You might be able to do this already with Profit Profiles.  In there, you select the software you want to be active, which algos they do, etc.  You apply the Profit Profile to a Profit Miner.  You'd then create a pool group with all the pools/coins you want to mine against, and then set it all in motion on the Profit Miner.

This worked. I correct what I said earlier - once you get the hang of this program it is easier.

I have some software suggestions that would push profitability to surpass NHML by far.

1. THE ABILITY TO CREATE A PROFILE WITH DIFFERENT SOFTWARES!!!! (ie. EWBF for equihash, excavator for x11, etc, etc) My initial suggestion of benchmarking all algos on all software would solve this. The AwesomeMiner Program would automatically keep the highest hashrate of all mining software for that algo.

Software suggestions
1. dstm miner for Equihash - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-dstms-zcash-equihash-nvidia-miner-v062-linux-windows-2021765
2. ccMiner 2.2.2 - https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer/releases
3. ccMiner Nanashi fork for Lyra2REv2 - https://github.com/Nanashi-Meiyo-Meijin/ccminer
4. ccminer krnlx fork for SkunkHash (can also do xevan) - https://github.com/krnlx/ccminer-skunk-krnlx
5. excavator 1.3.3 - https://github.com/nicehash/excavator/releases

Thank you!

Patrike,

Can you add this pool to the next update to Awesome Miner >> http://pool.hashrefinery.com/

It's the same layout as Zpool.

I am up to 5 instances locally now of XMRig running, any words on the XMRig API support? It'll force me to upgrade my version

Using a Notification action I can't use webhook.

Here is one example:


I use this for notification to Telegram for each RIG separately because only GET metod working now and it requires different address lines.

It will be the same answer as I gave another user a few posts ago. CPU mining with your parameters works great on my system.

It might be that your CPU doesn't support the instruction set by the default exe-file "cpuminer-core-avx2.exe". See this page for alternative exe-files for Cpuminer that may work on your system:
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/cpumining.aspx

In most cases this is solved by instead of using the email/SMS action, using a Notification action, and configure the notifications to also send email/sms messages (in Options dialog, Notification section). This is also what the blue information boxes inform about.

Can you describe the scenario where that kind of setup isn't good enough? I'm sure there are some, but I need to understand the complete scenario.

Since the parameter -wd is hardcoded upon start, ethminer fails to start as it doesn't recognize the -wd parameter.

External miner also doesn't work.

It works with claymore remote manager tool that is included with claymore 10 miner.

Patrike,
Please add the same option "Notify once" as in notifications (circled in red) for other types of notifications such as "Send SMS" and "Send webhook", because at the moment they can not be used. I'm bombarded with a huge number of notifications )))

This is the diagnostics.... my environment variables window is empty. Please advise.

Thank you for your fast response. Meanwhile I made another miner and selected only CPU algorithms for it. Mostlikely my mining parameters are not OK and Diagnostic test fails. I will post the result later since my test shows your app gives best hashrates.

Hi,
There is a small introduction to CPU mining on the web site:
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/cpumining.aspx
You are correct that you add another Managed Miner for the CPU mining, similar to what you did for GPU mining. As mining software you select CpuMinerOpt.

1) Yes. I've added a new example for this on the web site "Example: Shutdown remote PC via a button click", where you can use the Rules in Awesome Miner for this:
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/rules.aspx

2) Awesome Miner will simply pass this variable name to your mining software. So if the mining software supports it, it should work when launching it from Awesome Miner as well

Hi,
Awesome Miner uses data from Yahoo for these local currencies. There is a known issue with the Yahoo Finance API where sometimes can fail processing the requests for a long period of time.

In most scenarios, this problem goes away after a while, once Yahoo Finance API gives a successful response. The instability of this API is widely known and not specific to Awesome Miner. However, what I'm planning to do is to provide these exchange rates via my own API to make it more stable.
