TeamCheck script finally got tested. and failed! I updated with a fix. Tested working!

One issue though. They went down at the same or close to the same time. Im not sure one had time to save the other. I may have a decentralization issue  Roll Eyes
Aw well. Ill leave them running. But I think I better run a check from my PC as well. I guess ill try and figure out the windows CURL command syntax issue or run from VM with a small linux, in case they do go down at the same time.


Hows it going with the new firmware guys? Fix the issue? Im gunna update after a nap. I need to redo all the script files if I do. so more than a couple of clicks and im tired.

hi everybody

I decide to buy 1 unit of ASIC A9 Zmaster these days. you can find below our local situation:

hardware cost: $6500
electricity cost: 0.08 $/kWh
Delivery Time: 15 Days after placing order

please consider that I don't have huge farm, just want to use this device personally in my house with the mentioned information.

I talked today with a person that has an ASIC importer company. he told me that you will not reach any profit of any available ASICS. I'm confused at this moment. all of my calculation seems that it would be profitable. in the other hand, I cannot deny those speeches. would you please tell what will be true about this matter?

referring to my information, if I buy 1 unit of this ASIC, would it profitable or not?

many thanks in advance for your comments.

I wouldn't buy it brother.

I use these smart plugs to remotely reboot rigs, these plugs are rated for 16A 240V. Newest firmware seems to reboot rigs automatically when free memory level goes to 0 kb.

Interesting.

Do I understand you correctly that with the latest firmware, the miner automatically reboots if it goes to zero hash rate?

Correct.

Thank you. I updated the firmware tonight.

Ugg, The internet really is cesspool. Someone logged into my A9 this morning and changed my pools. It was my fault for leaving it port forwarded to the internet with default passwords. But it begs the question. Is this person port scanning the entire net? Or did he pull my IP from this site?


BWAHAHAHA... That's actually brilliant.  And teaches you not to be so careless and lazy.

I want to reach through the internet and high five that guy!  Cheesy


So, your a lowlife groupy? It was a social experiment. I was betting on not getting hacked and I was wrong. I also didn't think I'd get such a juvenile response. I have a bad habit of forgetting how many bad apples are out there. I wasn't so careless and lazy that I didn't have notifications setup to tell me my miner stopped hashing to the correct pool. They got maybe $2, mostly because I was curious and poked around a bit before fixing it. I dont feel like I got ripped off for $2. I feel like I paid $2 to do an experiment. You mind laughing and berating people cluelessly elsewhere?

Hi I figured out how to PM you.

I wrote asking if I can please pay you to help me resolve this issue. Thanks!

I have updated one for testing. Ramping up to 50k Sols took much longer. So far I could not see a difference. Maybe they fixed the memory bug?

Nope, still not.

Is the memory issue a software bug or hardware problem?

Software.

If it's software why doesn't every miner have this issue?  Because only a minority of miners have this issue.

...

So yeah, remember to change your passwords if you NEED to go directly on the net with these. I knew it was dumb, was just kinda curious to find out if things were really that bad out there. Im going to report the username later, ...
Where would you possibly "report" this to?  Nicehash is the home of persons who literally do not care.

In my experience, no one (absolutely no one) will care about your report.

In order for you to achieve any justice whatsoever, you'll have to hack the lowlife yourself and get all those coins back.

Code:
echo "Miner $MinerIP" >> /etc/systemd/system/TeamCheck.log
                        date +'Power Cycled on Date : %d/%m/%Y Time : %H.%M.%S' >> /etc/systemd/system/TeamCheck.log
                        echo "$(tail -n 50 /etc/systemd/system/TeamCheck.log)" > /etc/systemd/system/TeamCheck.log

Added a log file to my script with the above code. Updated the post. I learned that awesome miner has the capability to do what this script does and way more. I'll probably try it at some point but Im happy to be worry free about their uptime for now.

Still waiting to see if setting "vm.min_free_kbytes = 8192" may have made a difference. I'm at 5 days uptime. cgminer still fills memory and restarts. Just hasn't crashed yet.

Code:
sysctl -w vm.min_free_kbytes=8192

Since everyone is waiting for someone else to try the new firmware  Wink

With the new firmware it took about 35 mins for the A9 to ramp up to 50 ksol, but hash rate graph was much smoother than before after that. Fan speed is still between 15-25% and share accepted rate is 94-95%.

ATM we've some A9 working on pool @ https://Nibirupool.com/
Here are example of pool reported hashrate for A9, avg hashrate 52+ksol/s, mining ZClassic (solo atm, he's a first miner on zcl pool) --> https://zcl.nibirupool.com/stats


we'll be glad to see you on our pool.
