Just upgraded to 0.5c today, working great!

However, I just stuck my sapphire 6870 in and I can't adjust the clocks unless I go into atitweak.  Also, My voltage is rock solid.  I have no idea how to lower it o.o

Yes, the cgsnoop feature to do that works great
Thx.

how reset data for "web" mgpumon or restart it?

im in the same shoes as Inaba, i've tried numerous clock settings, nothing seems to help... i have 12 rigs each one has at least 1 gpu not recognized sometimes 2 gpu's...

maybe i'll have to converse with you as well Gigavps...

also, i'll donate for your help if i can get things figured out... and once things are running correctly i'll also donate towards the BAMT  Smiley

GPUs you would like to monitor.
can i monitor GPU from windows 7 (cgminer)?
Yes, the cgsnoop feature to do that works great if your Win7 machine is using a current version of cgminer. I am getting much better performance with same config using version 2.1.2 instead of current. On a machine with 2 5970's and cgminer 2.1.2 on Win7, it will only show 2 gpu's in mgpumon. If I use the newest version it works great with all 4 gpu's showing up but not worth the drop in performance to monitor them. Curious if anyone else has seen anything similar? I know this is not a BAMT issue, just checking.

Sigh... looks very nice and pretty full of awesome. I wish I could get BAMT stable and functioning properly, but it constantly thinks GPUs are failed on every single rig I have, even though they run perfectly fine with CGMiner 24/7 for weeks on end, even using the BAMT version of CGminer.

What is the rough price per GPU?

You might want to talk to gigavps, he is running 30Ghash on bamt/cgminer.  The other large farms I know of are not using cgminer, but every report I've gotten about bamt/cgminer since we moved to 2.3.1 is that it works perfectly.  It seems there is a bug in older versions of cgminer that cause it to have issues if you actually use it's API.  Your problem descriptions support that.

Pricing for BAMT Pro services is based on which services you wish to use and the amount of data you wish to store with us.

Inaba, lodcrappo is correct. Ever since I moved to 0.5 with all of the fixes, my life has been a lot simpler. PM if you want to talk.

OK, sorry but the 7xxx series really just are not supported at this time, that is probably the biggest source of things going poorly.
Maybe someday.
And many thanks for the kind contribution


I have 2 rigs with only 7970's on them working on BAMT 0.5.  I couldnt get either of the phoenix's to work, but cgminer would start 'em.  I didnt update the SDK, just installed the new drivers:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.723292

On driver install, I forced it to overwrite existing fglrx (it was recommended to uninstall fglrx first, and I tried a couple guides to do it, but never got it done, so gave up... did force install and it worked fine).

For some unknown reason, the BAMT script would not autostart cgminer, but I used the same command it used (grabbed from the logs) and it started cgminer just fine, from this point, BAMT could monitor the cards as well.

Sometimes cgminer would not detect fans/temp on start, they say its due to some drive bug, but if you do:

Code:
export DISPLAY=:0

It seems to detect the fan/temps every time.  Also, it had that 100% cpu bug, but with cgminer, you can do:

Code:
export GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=1

to resolve that problem.

I setup /etc/rc.local to start cgminer at boot which calls the following script:

Code:
export GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=1
export DISPLAY=:0
cd /opt/miners/cgminer
/usr/bin/screen -d -m -S cgminer /opt/miners/cgminer/cgminer --api-listen --gpu-engine 1200,1175,1175 --gpu-memclock 1050 --auto-fan --temp-target 72 -I 10 -o http://mine.btc:8332 -u user -p pass

I have 3x7970's per rig getting about 2.0-2.1Gh/s on stock voltage.  And doing it the way i did above, it is fully monitored by BAMT.  I'm sure there is a better way, but this is how I did after many, many, hours of messing with it  Smiley and its working great!

Sheesh I guess don't post messages about new services and then ignore the world for 12 hours.

To all who sent me inquires about BAMT Pro:

To give you pricing I need to know:

Number of approx total GPUs you would like to monitor.

Length of history you'd like to store, from 1 hour to any number of years.

Contact email address (not required but would make it easier.)  My contact is [email protected] .

thanks.

Nothing supports 6xxx series memory downclocking. You'll have to flash the BIOS in order to do that.

Apart from ATi Tray Tools also Trixx worked for me - but only to 750MHz, and barelyclocked.
As for undervolting only barelyclocked worked flawlessly.

BAMT Pro (fix19)? interesting... more info?

today I moved all my rigs on BAMT .5

lodcrappo greats work!!! catch my litle donations Smiley

BAMT Pro is a set of additional features for BAMT that will not be released as open source.

These include a powerful GUI based central management and monitoring solution, cloud based monitoring and statistics gathering/reporting, and various other tools.

The first BAMT Pro feature,  BAMTMan mobile for Android devices, is now available.  This app connects you to the BAMT Pro cloud service from anywhere, providing instant status information for any part of your farm.  Setup is as simple as enabling a couple settings on any one miner at each site.  Complete statistics from all GPUs in all rigs will be available moments later.

The mobile app also supports normal Android notifications (message in notification bar, lights blink, sound, and/or vibration, user configurable) for any monitored parameter.

Since the Android market does not yet support BTC, I do not yet support the Android Market Smiley
Currently can be purchased by contacting me directly, and I'm looking into alternatives.

It's possible to set gpu, mem clocks/voltage with it? CGMiner is not an option, because don't support 6 series radeons mem downclocking and undervolting.

Nothing supports 6xxx series memory downclocking. You'll have to flash the BIOS in order to do that.
You sure? ATI Tray Tools support it. Not sure about others ocing utilities. I'm mining currently with 6870:


BAMT does not support anything like this.
You would have to do it in your gpu's bios.

Thats sucks. Don't want to mess with bios. Well, Windows still rulz then.

lodcrappo, can you answer my question?

i do not understand your question, but it looks like something that is probably covered in the faq or other documentation.
