So I'm curious, after some playing around. Is the coin, pool, and miner management so messed up so it encourages people to make more then one miner per rig and thus increase the license they purchase?

I'm trying to figure out how to manage multiple coins and the only way to do it is by creating a new group with the same rig in it with different mining software and pool parameters. Since GPU mining is complicated and requires multiple different mining distributions to mine different algos. Each 'miner' NOT rig is seen as a 'instance' and therefore requires a mining 'instance' spot in the license. This balloons exponentially with the amount of rigs you have and the coins you mine (it multiplies). So if you mine equihash, ethereum, and lbry on three rigs, you basically require nine 'instances'. If you mine more (and there is a lot more algos, coins, and miners) it's going to expand out even further. The only way to address this is to tediously edit each 'instance' and change everything manually, which is really no different then editing rigs manually without software.

I had already made a post addressing a lot of the bugs, UI issues, and problems with the miner which I haven't posted yet as I'm still figuring things out, but if this is by design this is absolutely unacceptable.

Maybe this is a misunderstanding and this is designed more for ASICs where there isn't multiple miners per 'computer/device/workstation'?

Apparently somehow my installation got corrupted after updating to the newest version and was causing the connectivity problems. Reinstalled and deleted the app data and was able to connect to the miner correctly.

Hosts can be edited in the options. When you add hosts via the properties page, there is no way to edit them there. That's what was confusing me (not sure why you still can't edit them there or it takes you to the options panel for pools).

Still haven't figured out how to remove a miner once you add one besides editing xml.

There doesn't seem to be anyway to manage a repository of miners (once you transfer them to the miner). You can go into the properties on the miner > path browse there, but that doesn't allow you to easily manage distributions across multiple miners.

We are using Awesome miner in our facility and it works really good. Support is also excellent.

I wonder if the Baikal Giant-A900 is or will be supported?
Thanks for the feedback.
That miner will probably work, as all standard compliant miners works with Awesome Miner.

The rig in the list just sits at 'starting' and doesn't do anything else. What's wrong?

Why can't you remove miners after you add them to the miner list?

I'm going to make a more inclusive post of things that could definitely made better, but I can't get it to work at the most basic level. I'm using the free version to try things out, not sure if that matters.

Edit: For some strange reason, the service wont start the miner, but will connect to the management console. After restarting the management console and the service over and over again, sometimes it will start a miner. Really weird. It seems to work better when connecting to IP instead of host name. Still doesn't reliably work.

Running Windows 8.1 x64 on both machines. Also why is 'host' and 'new host' even a option? This should be configured in the actual properties of the miner. There is no way to edit current hosts or delete them, they just pile up.

Evil beware: We have waffles!
1st, love Awesome miner.

Now for the fun... I just added 3x of the Avalon 721 miners to my farm and after I configured the Avalon controller with CGminer switches needed for Awesome to communicate I was flabbergasted to see this:


Now, the Avalon software in the controller shows a perfectly smooth 19-20THs for the trio and CKpool reports a solid tad over 19THs. Just as expected. So what's with the 40THs spikes swamping the scale factor? Are the trio of Avalon's actually hitting those speeds? Makes it damn hard to see how the s7's, 9's, and R4 are doing Wink

Any way to filter the sampling response to smooth it out?

do you know if awesomeminer can change the frequency of the S9 witohut restart it?
just curious....
but maybe i'm sayng bullshit..
i immagine to slow down frequency if the room temperature is too high.

First of all, the change frequency changes may not work correctly on the latest S9 batches because those miners handle the frequency configuration in a different way.
Both when makng frequency and API Access changes, Awesome Miner will only restart the mining software process on the Antminer. It's not a complete reboot.

Hello,

The summary display seems to be a bit off if you are using CM's Cryptonote miner.  It just appears that the field isn't setup to be long enough and it covers up the uptime value as per the image.

Good catch - thanks! This miner reported a very long software string, so I will make some user interface adjustments to make it look better.
Please continue testing the new development version of Awesome Miner and provide feedback!

I can break nearly anything  Grin , so I will let you know if I find other issues.

Finally I have managed to buy an old PC for my farm and now looking for simple monitoring solution.
There are 13xS9 (further expansion is planned) and the needs are very simple.
I want to monitor them, hashing power, temperature, uptime maybe and etc. and also to be able to monitor this remotely, with app or other remote PC/Server, if not then e-mail notifications maybe ?
Thanks in advance
Awesome Miner can do all that, including remote monitoring via a web interface and e-mail notifications. The web interface works well with both smart phones and desktop web browsers.

There are many happy users out there running Awesome Miner with Antminer S9.

Noob question.

I know a coin explorer api with wallet balance asking format:

shittycoinexp.info/api/getbalance/youraddresshere

How should I represent the URL in Coin -->Balance --> Blockexplorer API URL

to correctly record my balances???

Thanks
Hi,
Try to enter only the first part: http://shittycoinexp.info/api
However, some block explorers work differently than the standard, so if it doesn't work, please give me some examples and I will look into adding support for it.
Will try and report. Thanks  Smiley

Hello!

I am testing dual mining since the value of DCR has increased to the point where it draws my interest.  I followed the documentation on the site, but and it is working, but the miner display looks "off" as I expect it should be giving me a $ value for both ETH and DCR.

https://i.imgur.com/eOhb8n5.png

Any thoughts or suggestions?
Hi,
In the Group Pool you have defined, can you try to set "Priority: 0" on the ETH pool, and "Priority: 1" (which is lower priority) on the DCR pool?

Electrical engineer. Mining since 2014.
Has anyone yet tried running this on Linux+WINE?

It doesn't work. I have Ubuntu 16.10 and I tried it now with wine ('wine msiexec /i AwesomeMiner.msi' command).

The installation stops at:
Code:
Awesome Miner Setup Wizard ended prematurely

Awesome Miner Setup Wizard ended prematurely because of an error. Your system has not been modified. To install this program at a later time, run Setup Wizard again. Click the Finish button to exit the Setup Wizard.

Virtual machine and Windows in there is the way to go in Linux distros if you want to use Awesome Miner.
