Use your Azure-Credits to mine Monero!
Great work !
Is it possible to get workername as same as pool name or subscription ID/name ?
Or even set a name same as vm name like this :
Initially i also thought of doing something with the VM-name. But would that really be useful? Sometimes the nodes get switched off (cheap low-priority-nodes), azure might assign a new name to the node when it comes back. Also, the names do not seem to indicate the pool the node belongs to.
Using the pool-name sounds like a better idea. I'll have to research whether the script can actually somehow get access to the name of the pool. I'll have a look at it (it might take some more time until i can implement this).

workername... try adding ".worker" after your wallet address in config script
e.g. 4999aeniCU9Ug67vs7yvyJTSkxVUZRirUYUerT66fqzoYMhiShFLBqZHmFxmPD6oABafM5cVKc77yyy yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.worker
or change password.
Thanks for trying to help, but in this case it works a little different. Have a look at the first post in this thread, i already put a description how to set the worker-ID there.

just an after thought;  if you are worried about them monitoring your traffic to known mining sites;  just use a VPN service for any of its connections Wink
Yes, that's a good idea. I'm putting this on my to-do-list...

Hi,

Any update about WokerName yet ?

It's hard to know which account is running low hash.

I added a paragraph about the worker-ID in the initial post. As always: if you have trouble getting it to work just post a message here.

I was talking about the azure account, the VMs defintely stopped, I can still login, the batch service is still there, but it displays "No Access" when i try to access Pools menu, I also cant add a new pools. and with the subscription disabled, i cant choose any subscription to create a new group

I'll try the support today

Thanks for the update. When you get a reply from the support, please share it here.

I can only mine for several days and got my subscription disabled, both on my free trial account and pay as you go

Hi VaynardW,
that's strange. I've been running my VMs without break for several months now, and so far there was no problem. I have also signed up for a free trial account (independent from the azure-account linked to my MSDN-subscription) and i could use up the 200$ free credits without any problem.

You write you "got your subscription disabled". Are you talking about a MSDN-subscription or about the azure-account? And what do you mean by "disabled"? Is your account gone completely (i.e. you can't login anymore) or did MS just stop all running VMs?

anyone know of a good, reputable source to get the MSDN accounts? All the peeps selling accounts on BCT seem like fraudsters...
With this tut, no-one will sell sub at that cheap rate !!!


Running 3 subscriptions now.
Are you talking about actual MSDN-subscriptions with free monthly azure-credit, not just one-off Azure-accounts? May i ask you how you got the 3 subscriptions?

I have some free account (about 150 but MS has blocked a lot of them)
Yes I use NV6 for more than a year (~2$-3$/day from ZEC and XZC/ZOI but will out of credit after 6days )
Now it hard to get NV6 with new AZ Sub, this tut should make me rich again Wink



Will change all to XMR this weekend.

M60 can run ZEC at 320H/s or lyra2v2 at 26MH/s, plus 6 CPU
May be we can get something better than 20 CPU core to mine XMR ?
When i started setting up the scripts i experimented with the GPU-VMs from Azure. The GPU of course is capable of a higher hashrate, but it is also more expensive. I found that in the end the profit is approximately the same, but setting it up is by far more difficult. For the GPU to work i have to install some external NVIDIA CUDA-packages and reboot the VM a few times. Setting it up was a fight even with the official guide from azure.
I checked the hashrates you gave at whattomine.com and it did not show a higher profit than Monero (assuming 1600H/S), even if you take into account the extra 6 CPUs. I know profit-calculators are not really exact... do you think that the numbers are so far off that in the end using the GPU would yield a better result than CPU-mining?

After delete all old ResoureGroups and do it again, thing done well now !



I will looking at the bill to see if it really cost lest than 150$ Wink

If possible please add some options to the script : wokername and email to notify.

Thank you for the script.

I'm glad to hear that it's working for you. Thanks for the suggestion about the workername. I'll write up the options for adding a workername in a later post.

So far so good !!!
