Does Awesome Miner work with Avalon 741s? If so, what do I need to do to connect to it? Can it connect while my miner is running? Thanks!

Yes. Awesome Miner can connect to the Raspberry Pi unit running Cgminer API, and the miner should be running as well. You can configure this via the Avalon web interface: Status -> CGMiner Configuration.

Guess what i monitor MY Avalon 6 and my Innosilicon's A4 Dominator just that way i use minera not the software Avalon supply's for the A6 and wish Innosilicon's would release there CGMiner version as OPEN SOURCE I don't really care for there UI, i would use Minera with there controller and install a more up date version of Raspbian on that controller and use there version of cgminer.and keep it up to date .

Any reason why SP CCMINER was dropped in favor of the other variant? I'm trying to get it to work w/ awesome miner for LBRY but unable to. Well, it sort of works, but I don't get any useful info from the awesome miner client.

I'm trying to not only add new mining software all the time, but also remove some older. Now both Ccminer 2.2 and Ccminer Alexis are supported instead of the older CcMiner SpMod. You can still use the old CcMiner SpMod together with Awesome Miner, by adding it as a Managed Software in the Options dialog.

Same problem

It was a similar report here a few days ago. It turns out that the Coinbase API sometimes return very high values. Can you also try to verify this link in the web browser when you see this problem?
https://api.coinbase.com/v2/prices/spot
I will try to find a way to detect when Coinbase is giving incorrect responses - but I still don't know why they do.

That's basically the same thing isn't it?

Yeah. Essentially both methods are same, just that the second method requires more manual configuration.

Thanks for the tip, btw. Didn't know we could add multiple managed miners pointing to same remote agent. Let me give this a try, when I get back home.

Many thanks for finding this one. I've implemented a correction that will be included in next version.

thanks. Got one more query. What's the best way to configure a rig with a combination of nvidia / AMD GPUs? I tried setting up profile group, but the software that gets selected (except claymore dual miner) doesn't usually support both type of GPUs, and the rig ends up mining with only partial hash rate.

Is it possible to

a) Let awesomeminer run multiple software (one for each brand of GPU)

OR

b) Assuming (a) is difficult to implement, is it possible to configure two miners in the same machine , each managing separate group of GPUs?

That's basically the same thing isn't it? It really depends on the mining software, but there should be a way to two to do it. For one, you can setup two managed miners pointing to the same host. One managed miner using software exclusive to AMD, and the other for nvidia. It should detect the correct card, and run two instances of mining software on the rig. In the case of using some versions of Claymore that support both, you would setup managed software to target gpu 0, 1, 2 (if those were 3 of one variety,) and gpu 3, 4, 5 of the other variety. You would specify the the GPUs to targe as a custom command line.

I had mixed cards in one of my rigs for a while, it worked but awesome kept showing the NV Card as one of my AMD cards sense i couldn't install the AMD cards without one of the amd Cards being in slot 0 . i stay with all the same brands in the same rig.. and the ZEc miner for the NV cards would shut down from time to time, I can't use Claymore's Zec miner because it doesn't support NV cards but the ETH miners does.. and it didn't shut down .

even tired separate groups of GPUs with managed miner ....custom command line etcc ,,, for me the best way was keep amd with amd and NV with NV seems to work better that way with awesome or any thing ....

I have two NV cards sense i posted about that issue a while back, about to buy a third in a week .

But it does work .

Have you thought about also having a tab to monitor all your masternodes?

I've never received that kind of request before. Is it Dash Masternodes or something else? I have to admit that I'm not really familiar with these concepts.

There are lots of coins which have master nodes now. The reason I suggest it because I think it would be easy and very valuable to people who have them. The master node IP is published and I would just want to make sure it is "enabled" or running. I have multiple VPSs with Multiple IPs on those VPSs. It would be nice to monitor. Just a thought. Not sure if any one else even offers anything like it.

You can check out some at http://masternodes.pro/ and https://www.investitin.com/masternode-list/

Yes, it would include DASH.

VIVO,ENT,DAS,

i also thought about awesome.miner adding masternodes but the Problem is the way masternodes works.
currently awesome.miner is pulling data from mining Software and not from coins blockchain rpc
patrike would have to sync the coin, fetch data from blockchain and filter your prefered address (your masternode)
this simply is another Service.if you dont want to Monitor your masternode at command line i suggest you check the blockchain Explorer and look if you received payments.

Really cool program! Is there a chance of getting XMR-Stak added? Cryptonight was basically AMD territory, but XMR-Stak makes it a viable algo for Nvidia now. tpruvot ccminer looks to be the chosen miner for cryptonight but it's WAY behind XMR-Stak.

Also, I don't really understand API's, but from what I've read it's how Awesome Miner does it's thing. It needs miners to have one with certain info available? See, told you I don't know much. Is that why ethminer is still not included? If so it's a real shame. I don't like Claymore, but Awesome Miner does look very polished. I just wish there was the sort of freedom to choose miners that NemosMiner offers. However NemosMiner is way more complicated to customize, especially if you don't know powershell. Which I don't.

If only the two could meet and have an algo switching baby

It looks like XMR-Stak might have an API (the kind of monitoring interface Awesome Miner uses to connect to the mining software to get information about hashrate and similar), but no documentation about it so I'm not sure what it can do. It's some effort to add support for new mining software, so it this one is getting popular, I will add it.

Ethminer doesn't have an API, so there is no way for Awesome Miner to get mining information from that software.

Even if Awesome Miner doesn't provide specific support for a specific kind of mining software, you can always use the Generic Miner concept to start and stop the mining from Awesome Miner. However, you will not get any mining statistics. Was this the kind of flexibility you asked for?

Looks like there is an issue with profitability calculations for ethereum (may be just dual mining, not sure) when profit profile groups are used.

I've two profiles [just for reproducing the bug]
a) GTX1070 - Profit Profile with benchmark values for a single GTX1070 GPU
b) SGX001-MINER - Profit Group with GTX1070 profile and count 1 . [This is a simple case made just for reporting the bug. In reality, the group has three profile groups for all the different card types and the bug still exists]

A sample log is available @ https://pastebin.com/GVSaSdUu

AwesomeMiner reports ethash profit 0.0003611396161 for single GPU profile and 23.7880502519032 for the group. The profits for other algorithms stays more or less the same, as you can see from the log.

Many thanks for finding this one. I've implemented a correction that will be included in next version.

us-east.equihash-hub.miningpoolhub.com was down today, awesomeMiner doesn't support automatic failOver ?

Please add automatic failover, it's so basic for a successful mining software.

Yes, it does support pool failover, but you need to create a pool group so that it knows what to fail over to. Then in the pool group you set your priorities so it knows which one you prefer over the others.

I'm using the profit switcher and Ive entered my username for MiningPoolHub and selected USA for the pool.

I understand if I would go with a non-profit switching miner I can use the pools.

But when using profit switcher how woud I enable failover to Europe in case USA goes down ?

Also, sometimes the API interface is down, is there a rule to detect it ?

I often see "interface offline" and it stays this way.

I saw a rule to trigger an action when API interface is up but not the other way around.

Failover will work if you have more than one pool defined that is supported by the miner currently running You cannot automatically get failover from MPH US to EU. In order to do that, you need to add the MPH EU pools manually and define a Pool Group including them. Then you can add this Pool Group as "Custom pools" in the profit switching configuration.

Another alternative if you don't want to add so many pools would be to simply enable Nicehash in the profit switcher, as they have pools for most common algorithms as well. If you don't want to mine on Nicehash in normal case, you can go to Online Services section of the Options dialog and set the Profit Factor of all Nicehash pools to be 0.01 (default is 1, which is 100%). This will make all Nicehash pools look bad from a profit point of view and they will be given very low priority. However, they should still be included when the mining software is started so if the primary pool (MPH) is failing, at least you will have the Nicehash pools as a backup.

There are rules to detect if the API is down. See Options dialog, Rules section, and enable Offline Detection. You can configure this rule for how long the API should be down before the rule is triggered.

I really don't want to use nicehash pools as backup when Europe is available on MPH while USA is down...

Is it possible to implement automatic failover for switching profit for MPH in the next version ?

Thanks for the offline detection clarification, I will try that !

That might be added in the future, but it's a bit too specific scenario to get priority in the next versions. I do have a very large number of feature requests, and for this one there is a workaround by using Nicehash as backup. I do appreciate your feedback on this, and I have taken note of your request. I fully agree that this kind of feature would make sense.
