Good to see a couple of new blocks...I've been at the Forward Operating Base for Team Rubicon's Operation Pili Ho'ohele on Kaua'i Island since Sunday, and just got Internet back. We're mucking out homes, doing demo work, and debris removal in the hardest hit areas (Hanalei, Wainiha, Haena). I'm too old and beat up to do the strike team work, but I make a pretty good house mother and chef who can still "kick ass and get shit done" (the Team Rubicon motto) when necessary.

Keep finding the blocks, bunkies...on this end, it's all going for fuel for my 4x4 to get this job done.

Mine on.  Kiss

It is eerily quiet in Hanalei.  Down there twice and nobody is there.  Supposed to get wet on tuesday/Wednesday too


Good work in helping folks get back to normalcy.

thx for the infos

btw: 2018 a new AWS location in Sweden (Stockholm region) will go online, that should have low-latency to Scandinavia and Iceland
Yeah but it's AWS LightSail (AWSLS) I'm using for nodes, not AWS EC2.
LightSail isn't available in all the places they have EC2 - so we'll see what happens when that comes online.

The problem with AWS EC2 is that they charge a fortune for network - so I only use standard AWS EC2 for low data servers (like email and DNS and such - I'll probably move the monitoring to LightSail also some time in the future)

The AWS LightSail have fixed monthly network costs for a few TB (which is more than enough) but also only have a maximum of 2 vCPU
However, I've found that the 2 vCPU works faster and better than 4 vCPU on Vultr - the load average is lower on all the LightSail servers even with the ones with higher SPS (shares per second)
LightSail is about twice the price of the servers I'm moving away from, but that's OK since they seem to have better network so far ... touch wood Smiley

Was there again a small issue with the NL node? 28.04 ~17:00 UTC
Yeah it actually reconnected a few times Sad
All the reconnects were immediate though, so no alerts.
Well the AWS option is in the UK, so I guess that's what I could move it to since it will probably have similar response times for Iceland.
OK that'll be the next node I'll update.

#takeminingback
Hey everyone!!! I'm spending some time this weekend, working on some new graphics for pool promotion. As everyone has surely noticed by now, the BTC price has gone up a bit. With the rise, I've seen some new traffic, in my campaigns. I am, however, still looking for that area, where the BIG miners hide. I've had a few good leads, but in these areas, I'm the "brand new guy" and it might take time.
My work WILL continue!!!

To our new members:

It's been about a week since we've heard from K.P. Pass the Hash's 5nd giveaway, so be on the look out for the next contest!!!

Yes the failover code is full of fail Tongue
Maybe "bitcoin" needs to find a programmer who can actually write a miner that works properly and takes pride in the quality of their code, instead of sitting around with $20-30mil and not giving a crap about it Smiley
After all these years, Bitmain can't do it, nor can ck Smiley
Bitmain won't because that means actually writing code vs just stealing it.
As for the originator of the mess -- reading through the Halong Dragonmint thread I've seen mention of it handling failover better so...
Then again safe bet ck ain't working for Halong for free. I will say that he has been busy there -- he's been releasing firmware updates every week or so to get the mints closer to as-advertised spec the fools investomers believed and then threw money at Halong in typical pre-sale frenzy.

God forbid things he comes up with eventually appears in the git for cgminer so Canaan/Avalons can use it... Of course soon after BM's Ants would be using it as well.
No, BM wont use it.
I updated their driver for the S1, S2, S3 all in the public git, with a bunch of fixes, back when the S1, S2 and S3 were around.
Basically, I got their version of the S1 driver module, reformatted it start to finish so it was readable, added a collection of bug fixes, including removing code that could throw away blocks, and they never added any of that to the S1, S2, S3, S5, S7.
They never used the fixes I put in the public git.
Well, it just meant that my version for the S1, S2 and S3 is much better than theirs.
Even a Bitmain guy tried to convince the developers to use the fixes from the git - but they ignored him.
They did make one change in the S9 to stop throwing away blocks ... but I've no idea where they got the idea to actually do that.

Wow, it's really hot here today, sending some of my antminers to 100C+ on chip. Of course, I'll now have a severe thunderstorm in the evening ...

Good news is that I've paid an electrician to add another 32A breakout from the DB to the mining room, touch wood, this should resolve my power issues.

All ready for BLOCK TIME now please!

You should spend your free time writing some new code for these antminers (call it aardvarkminer code) that only works with kano.is, I'd load that shit on these pigs
Heh, if I had that much 'spare' time the accounting code would be finished already Smiley
Better get that finished soon .......

Earths rotation is slowing down like 1 millionth of a second per day, so it's working in your favor! Just thinking on the positive side of things here.

i dont know why, but again i had a outage of my miners few hours ago.
first pool is the dutch pool, second is the german pool. All miners have switched to 3rd backup pool.... (nicehash).

Why does this happen every time? Anyone knows? Am i the only one, or do more people expirience this??

I'm on the Dutch node with the German as my secondary. None of my miners failed over, so I suspect you have an issue with your Internet. Maybe try adding a DNS server that isn't your ISP's as a secondary and see if this helps.

I also have the Dutch node as my first choice and experienced a short failover a few hours ago. My secondary is not Kano at the moment (my miner not at home so i don't get to change the settings very often) so I don't know about the German node.

Tomorrow, however, I will change to German as my primary node and Dutch as my second, do a reboot and see what happens. I have a feeling that the Dutch node has been a little unstable for a while as also my hashrate. Don't know if it's the miner or the node.
Yes there was a failover on the NL node at 14:19 UTC and 14:34 UTC
But they were both so quick that my monitoring didn't fire off, so when that happens (rarely) I don't usually post about it.

The catch with the NL node is that there's no AWS in Amsterdam, so I don't really want to remove that node and move it somewhere further away - since there's a lot of hash rate "close" to it ... though I am still considering ...
... and a failover should only be a few minutes to another kano node ... assuming that the miner code actually works properly ... ... ... ...
