Dwarfpool help recommends to use WALLET/WORKER format. This works for me:

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eth-eu.dwarfpool.com:8008 -ewal 0xD69af2A796A737A103F12d2f0BCC563a13900E6F/SampleRig -epsw x

Thanks, it works for me now.
Will it work in failover epools.txt format?

POOL: eth-ru.dwarfpool.com:8008, WALLET: 0xcb35e85b4d545c92f43aa86834bc08dc3fbb8fad/hd7990, PSW: x, WORKER: , ESM: 0, ALLPOOLS: 0

This sample works.

It looks like my fault is that I always RTFM (in this case, the README!!!.txt for the miner) :-)

- the examples for ethpool/ethermine do NOT show how to use rig name;
- the example for Dwarfpool does NOT show how to use rig name, but says 'you can also specify "-eworker YourWorkerName" option' - exactly that I did and that does not work.

So for both ethermine and dwarfpool the -eworker option does not work as expected. I would recommend you either update examples with rig names, or add a note that -eworker might not work, and in that case makes sense to use pool-recommended format with dot or slash for the rig name. Since no source available, it is not obvious if wallet name should/may be concatenated with other URL options like rig or password, because there are options for them and maybe there are same in the stratum protocol variations.

Beautiful!!! I didn't know such a product existed!  Yes, I think this is exactly what I want.  The apartment I'm in is in a bit older of a building though...buildt in something like the 60's I think.  Is there any way to test before I buy a powerline ethernet adapter?
U may test that both sockets that u will use, sit on same phase. So take multimeter and extension cord and measure all combinations and make sure u dont read 400V (or 200V in mickeyland). Tried it between two buildings and wasnt stable enough, but from one room to other no problem.

In my experience, they'll usually work if both outlets go through the same circuit breaker box. You may not get streaming-video speeds, but for mining, you'll probably be fine. I recommend getting a cheap one from someplace that takes returns, though, just in case. Smiley

Yes, it sends hashrate in -esm 0.

Since I see no hashrate report, could you please give a definitely working command line for that?

As with the case of ethermine I suspect that the miner has some issues with command line parsing. At least for ethermine the shares reports depend on the command line args order. So I suspect the same is with -esm 0.

To be precise, here is the command line which does NOT report hashrate to dwarfpool:

Code:
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eth-ru.dwarfpool.com:8008 -ewal 0xab..cd -eworker rig01 -epsw [email protected] -esm 0

1 problem : a longer ethernet cable

Also, depending on your wiring, a powerline ethernet adapter might solve the problem with less clutter.

Ok, so I'm quite sure my first problem is the wireless adapter I'm using.  Plugged in using an ethernet cable, I get steady connection and have no problems also connecting TeamViewer.  Unfortunately, the spot I want my rig is nowhere near where my modem/router is, so I need to find a dependable wireless solution.  Any suggestions?

2nd problem: Once I wired in to my network, I noticed that after a few minutes of running all 6 cards, a couple of them would reach 94+ temps.  At which point, display driver would fail, and the 3 GPUs I had plugged into my 2nd PSU would turn off (sometimes the others would stay, sometimes the entire rig would just shut down).  So, I guess I need to buy a Kill-A-Watt or similar to monitor voltages from each PSU.

Given I have 2x 280x and 4x 390x, does anyone have a recommendation for how to configure them?  I mean, how many cards into the primary PSU, and how many in secondary PSU (I'm using Add2PSU to connect the 2x 1000 watt PSUs).

Thanks for any feedback!
-wireless solution - buy cheap router and use it as bridge - connecting via lan cable from PC to the router?

- you have 2 problems - your cards are overheating AND possibly PSus are not good enough
- improve cooling, and/or downclock a bit. Going over 80 for GPU or VRMs is not good.
- What are your PSUs? 2 good 1K PSUs should have no problem feeding such system (3 gpu per psu)
What brand are these and how old are they? Usually psus degrade 5-10% per year
Install HWINFO and run it in sensor mode - and enable logging. IF/When system shuts down go and take a look if any voltage went bad. Hwinfo can log all MB and gpu cards sensors

Ok, thanks all for your inputs, it's really really appreciated.  It seems everyone gets varying results as far as how many GPUs can be connected to a PSU.  The 2 1000W I have are EVGA Supernova's, brand new.  So I'm guessing that's not my problem.  What I didn't take into account though is how much extra power draw comes from dual mining.

My original config was MB + 2x 280x + 1 390x on primary PSU, then the remaining 3 390x on the 2nd PSU.  But, 2nd PSU was getting very hot, and eventually one (or more) of the cards would overheat and all shut down.  So, I've ordered a Kill-A-Watt to measure and compare so I can be sure.  Mind you, my MB (H81 PRO BTC) has 2x 4-pin molex adapters on the board which I have plugged in from the primary PSU as well, so maybe that affects power draw from 1st PSU as well....

As for networking, I live in downtown city apartment, and my cable/router is my bedroom because that's the only spot I have a cable to connect the modem to.  So, a wired ethernet connection isn't an option Sad I need to do this wirelessly as my wife won't let me have a loud/hot rig sitting on my dresser in the bedroom, not an ethernet cable running through the damn house  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

For now, I've unplugged the 2 280x's and am happily hashing away with the 4 cards.  I'll post back my results and config once I have all 6 running flawlessly!

UPDATE: Fixed bug with Linux build when miner is closed after some time, re-download v4.1 for Linux.

Testing again Wink

Claymore,
should your miner report "Sent hashrate" to DwarfPool in ESM=0 mode? I see no reported hashrate, but eth-proxy with ethminer report this.

Yes, it sends hashrate in -esm 0.

I used the linux version of the miner and ran it the whole night in dual mode. While I managed to earn some ETH without issue, however, I don't see any DCR earnings.

How long does it take to show transactions in the mining pool? I used supernova and ccminer, both showed no transaction. My mining logs show that I am authenticated and submitting shares.

Any idea why?

Hi,

when I sit in front of the rig, log in and run the miner. No problem. (Windows 10)

when I remote desktop to Windows, the dual miner does not detect the gpus, only detects one of them.

What can I do to fix this.

Anybody had the same issue ?

Thanks
Use teamviewer, vnc, or chrome remote desktop

Hi.
For the best performance , how must be -ethi  parameter?
I tray maximum 29 , miner working normally, but pool "nanopool" dont check nothing.
If i set -ethi -8126  mh/s decreases very match.
I dont know - what value is the best for that parameter.

And one more question: why nanopool.org  graph "Reported hashrate" stand to zero. Share is accepted but reported hashrate is zero.
On another ethereum miner that is the very bad - dont mine nothing.

So I finally added the last 2 GPUs to my mining rig.  Before, I had 4 cards hooked up and everything hashed as expected, but with some "mildly" frequent disconnects from pools (especially suprnova), according to the software.

Last night I added the last 2 390x's, and everything booted and all cards were recognized just fine.  However, once I start the miner, TeamViewer would almost immediately disconnect and I would have a very hard time reconnecting.  The miner reported eth hashrate as expected (~160 mh), but my pool (coinotron) reports only 2-5 mh, which is a fraction of what it should be.  I tried running Genoi's latest release, but the CPU usage jumped to 99% once the mining started, and after a couple minutes I saw TeamViewer disconnecting as well as display driver crashes, so quickly scrapped that strategy.

I'm not really sure what might be the issue, but it seems maybe the wireless adapter I have installed isn't doing what it needs to.  Any advice as to what might be the issue?  For completeness sake:

4gb RAM
Celeron CPU
2x 1k watt PSU
4x 390x
2x 280x
Windows 10

Thanks!

I had a similar issue previously, until I installed a "headless HDMI or DVI adapter" - after that my TeamViewer or VNC connects as per normal as if the remote irg is attached to a PC monitor.

Well, whenever I first start the rig up, I have a monitor plugged into the first GPU, and I still see the same behavior.  TeamViewer only disconnects or somehow seems less stable when I fire up a miner....

Ok, so I'm quite sure my first problem is the wireless adapter I'm using.  Plugged in using an ethernet cable, I get steady connection and have no problems also connecting TeamViewer.  Unfortunately, the spot I want my rig is nowhere near where my modem/router is, so I need to find a dependable wireless solution.  Any suggestions?

Thanks for any feedback!

I will us 2X280x+1X390 in the main, and 3X390 in the secondary. By doing that, you might have 800W in each PSU.

you will be needing another psu.

for me..

2x 390x per 1000w PSU, your 2x 280x can be powered by a 750w..

i don't own a 1000w PSU..I only have a 850w PSU and the biggest load it is powering right now is an overclocked 390 and 390x..

if you are experimenting and depending on your PSU (quality and performance), I've read that coolermaster v1000 made by seasonic has an allowance to its peak (up to 1100w) and can power 3x 280x.. you can try 1x 280x, 2x 390x per 1000w PSU

regarding the heat, spacing and electric fan is the key, blow the heat away from the gpu's

I have 2x r9 280x and 2x r9 380 on primary: 1000watt and second: 650 watt
I cant run my third 280x. How much am i missing by?

you are saying 650w psu can't run a 280x?..I have a 600w psu and it can power a 280x

check your psu 12v rail, some models have two 12v rails use them both by using a molex or sata adaptor and PCIE to power your GPU
