sorry if this question is already asked.  How can I connect Avalon miners to Awesome Miner any instruction ?  I put host IP adress to Avalon but it says I have to configure CGMINER how?
Avalon is supported and you can specify it as Cgminer when you add it.

To get privileged API access, go to the Avalon configuration tool: Status -> CGMiner Configuration. Enter a rule like this, if Awesome Miner is on the 192.168.x.x network.
W:192.168.0.0/16,W:127.0.0.1

So right now WhatToMine is showing I should be making $1 per day more with MUSIC than EXP but Awesome Miner is showing the opposite, I'm making $1 more with EXP.  I thought Awesome Miner got it's data from WhatToMine?  Why the discrepancy?

EDIT:  After three hours of running EXP it's clear I'm making more than I did with MUSIC.
WhatToMine uses 24h profitability by default, but can be changed to use current. Awesome Miner uses current profitability by default, by can be changed to use 24h (Options dialog, Statistics section)

I must be doing something wrong... version 4.0.

I did a full benchmark on one of my two 1070s (GPU 0).

I said "save to profile" and started my managed miner back up.

As I type this, it's mining X14 at 10 cents USD per day and has been for an hour now. 

I feel like I must have screwed up something when I benchmarked.  Anyone have any idea?  Thanks.
Can you review if your hashrates looks OK? If you look at the Profit profile you saved your hashrates to (Options dialog, Profit profile), does the hashrates look correct? And your Managed Profit Miner is configured to use this specific Profit profile?

Just put -allcoins 1 in "Command Line", inside Properties.

Tried that many times, it just doesn't work.  Tried -allcoins 1 as well as allcoins 1.  It doesn't do anything.

EDIT:  I finally got it to work by putting ALLPOOLS in the Claymore section.  I know I tried ALLCOINS before and it didn't work.  Something strange going on there.
So the Claymore mining software was telling you to add "-allcoins 1", and you did that and used the Diagnostics button to verify that Awesome Miner sent this. And the Claymore mining software still gave the same error about "-allcoins 1", although it was passed already - and the solution was to include ALLPOOLS instead? I'm just making sure I understand the scenario here. The entire concept with allcoins and allpools can be a bit complex.

Good that you managed to get it working.

Hi, I bought the Enterprise version.
I've used it with different miners with no problems. Only mining with autoswitch that could not make it work in any way.

My doubt is:
A few rigs I use the NHML (Nicehash Mining Legacy). I installed the AM agent and tried to connect the miner, also ip, however unsuccessfully. How to make AM just see Nicehash mining?

Nicehash uses several miners at the same time plus doble mining. Also installed all pools of Nicehash, put my BTC wallet as my user name etc ...nothing

I'm currently using just as a monitoring a rig with Ethos

Thanks
I assume you are using External Miner concept in Awesome Miner to connect to the mining software started by the Nicehash mining software. In order for this to work, the mining software must have API enabled and you need to know on which port the Nicehash software uses for this. Once you found this information in the Nicehash software, it should simply be to connect to the IP and port from Awesome Miner.

If you use the Managed Miner concept in Awesome Miner, you don't have to figure out these API and port configuration on your own, Awesome Miner will handle it for you. You can run different multiple mining software with Awesome Miner as well. You create a Managed Miner for each - for example one for CPU mining and another one for GPU mining.

Any possible way to run Awesome miner (not Remote agent) on 2 different pc's with exact same config and sort of sync with each other?

That's unfortunately not possible. You can copy the configuration file (%AppData%\AwesomeMiner\ConfigData.xml), but the file is only read when the application is starting.

Thanks for the reply.

I will only be running 1 instance at a time, can maybe put config on shared drive.

Can we change the location/path of the config file? Maybe in registry somewhere?
It's not possible to change the location. It will always be in your user folder.

Hello Patrike!

I was using remote agent for Awesome Miner about one week, but it was pretty problematic at least with the free version. I have to mining rigs, but if i did some changes to one of them, both stopped and had issues connecting again, had to change from hostname -> ip, and possibly from ip -> hostname again before they did connect again. After a reboot it could also take up to half an hour before Remote agent started Claymore again. Im still using Awesome Miner for monitoring purposes on Claymore, but i would really like that remote agent worked better since it allows more control options in a easy way remotely. Any ideas what goes wrong? Just monitoring claymore with it started separately works great at all time.
Make sure you only have one Managed Host (Options dialog, Managed Hosts) per remote computer defined in Awesome Miner. Also make sure you run the same version of Awesome Miner and Remote Agent, and that you only have a single Awesome Miner, so you don't have two instances trying to control the same Remote Agents.

If you still experience issue, you could send me the log file and let me know the name of the miner that is Offline and what time. Log file can be found in Tools -> Log file.

I'm experiencing a few very odd things with benchmarking. Great feature, thanks! AM seems to forget about benchmarking occasionally. I benchmark all algo's, "Save to profile," then start mining. Here I run into the first issue. AM will not mine anything except to an XMR pool with suprnova that I do not have configured. I don't have any XMR pools nor do I have do any mining at suprnova. I have no idea where this is coming from. I can start and stop the miner all I want and it will only mine XMR until I reboot the host. Then it works just fine using the pools that I actually have configured. It does this every single time on every single profit miner. I have screenshots but not really sure how to attach here.

So after reboot I'm running on my pools. Great! Then comes the loss of hashrates from the benchmarks. I think this is related to profit groups. I haven't found the trigger, but every few hours I'd look to see what AM was doing and find that all the hashrates were back to the default. I believe it's related to groups because after I set each miner to a single GPU profile rather than a group it stopped happening (so far...).

Lastly, once everything in benchmarked and rebooted the miner appears to pick the most profitable coin/algo, however it is not listed on the "Coins" tab. The algo isn't even on the page so I have no idea why it's not mining one one of the top couple of coins. I double checked this on WhatToMine, the data source, and it's no where to be found there either. According to AM math, it is mining something more profitable than the #1 item on the Coins page though, so maybe this isn't all that bad?

If it helps, I'm configured for only zpool right now while trying to figure out some of this oddness.

Thanks!

Did you save your benchmarks as a profit profile?  And did you assign the profit profile you created from your benchmarks to your profit miner?  This is where it really ties all together for AM.  It will use your benchmarked profit profile, compare it to the coins tab or online services tab (depending on how you setup profit switching) and then mine the most profitable coin or algo based upon what is enabled.

Question:  my rig contains a mix of AMD and Nvidia.  I want to disable dual mining (DCR) on the Nvidia cards.  I figured if I entered the Claymore command line parameter -di 012 for the DCR pool that would work but it doesn't do anything.   Can I do what I want to do?
"-di 012" should disable GPUs in Claymore, but I don't think you can disable dual mining for nVidia only with a single Claymore miner instance. I think you need two, which translates into two Managed Miners in Awesome Miner. The first one for AMD and the second one for nVidia. Then you can configure them separately in terms of which pools to use, and for nVidia you can make sure it's only a single pool.

-dcri can be used to set per-card intensities.  I forgot about that.

I still can't get -allcoins 1 passed to Claymore from Awesome Miner.  I really don't understand, it just doesn't work.  I assume I'll have the same issue with -dcri but I need to try it.

To disable dual on one card:

-mode 1" means Ethereum-only mining mode. You can set this mode for every card individually, for example, "-mode 1-02" will set mode "1" for first and third GPUs (#0 and #2).

If the Nvidia one is GPU 3, you put "-mode 1-3"

Just put -allcoins 1 in "Command Line", inside Properties.

Hello Patrike,

I sent you the log you requested by email.

I've also noticed that there are now fewer algorithms in the benchmarking page than before even though I have already ran benchmarks against them and changed none of my settings. Can you please advise?

Thank you,

I found that the bechmarking is somehow also linked to the pools I have selected. Is this normal behavior? If so it would be a nice feature to simply grey out algos that cannot be benched and also have the ability to see which ones have been benched before in order to update easily as new algos come out.

Thanks.
Awesome Miner looks at the selected Profit profile and figures out which mining software you have enabled. For most mining software, there must also be some pool available for Awesome Miner in order to do the benchmarking. Ccminer and Cpuminer are exceptions that has a good benchmark features that doesn't require a pool.

Awesome Miner is looking at the pools you have enabled for the profit switcher in Options dialog, Profit switching section. If you for example have X11 available via Nicehash, zpool or similar, X11 can be benchmarked.

When are we going to get support for estimated pool profits?

this looks bad and I have to keep logging into my rigs to double check them. Kind of defeating the poin.

For MiningPoolHub, Awesome Miner should be able to show profits for ports 120xx (added in 4.0) and 170xx. Can you please let me know the full pool URL (including port number) for the Mining Pool Hub pool that isn't working? Then I should do my best to implement support for it.

Hashrefinary looks like smaller multi-pool, and it's currently closed down because of security issues so I can't read up on it right now. I've never had a request to support this multi-pool before, but if it's getting popular and there is a demand for it, I can of course add support for it.

For zpool, version 4.0 of Awesome Miner adds more flexibility here, so in Options dialog, Algorithms and Online services, you can define any new algorithm and zpool pools that not yet made it into Awesome Miner. Zpool has many "smaller" algorithms and they add and change a lot, so providing this flexibility from Awesome Miner makes it possible to use the latest without waiting for built-in support in Awesome Miner.
