I think I'm having some errors with the beta where it can't set fan speed on the last card.

"Error assigning value 80 to attribute 'GPUTargetFanSpeed' ...... (Unknown Error)

Doesn't matter if I have 13 or 8 cards, always has an issue with the last card. Also doesn't seem that the OC settings or power limits are getting set on the last card. Either way, it still mines with all cards, I'm just worried about what potential overheat dangers I might be exposing myself to if I have no temperature controls on one of the cards.

Also, when I hook up 14 or more GPUs to my B250 Expert mobo, I can't get it to boot at all. (Of course this is probably an issue with how I have my stuff hooked up and absolutely nothing with nvOS.)

It is easier to break an atom than partialities AE
September 24, 2017, 08:13:03 AM
Some questions and / or Suggestions :

Would it be possible to output all the variables from the 1bash file to use a CSV file where we could list the currencies, our respective wallets for each currency, the associated tradding pools and platforms as well as their ports and usernames? and finally if we want to undermine it or not according to its profitability at the moment t + 3 min (in terms of its difficulty and its profitability).

I ask this because it has to undermine a little of everything and everywhere, this file would allow you to manage which miner mine what, when, on which pools that send themselves on which platforms of tradding...

Without keeping an Excel file up to date with wallets, addresses, and other pools, there is something to lose.

Column headers proposed for CSV file :

COIN   ALGO   ALGO_PL   ALGO_CORE_OVCLOCK   ALGO_MEM_OVCLOCK   GLOBAL_TARGET_TEMP   MINER_SOFTWARE   EXTENSION_ARGUMENTS (DUAL MINER)   SOFT_VERSION_MINER   WORKER (NAME)   WALLET_ ADDRESS   WALLET_PROVIDER_NAME   POOL_NAME   POOL_DNS   POOL_PORT   DUAL_WALLET ADDRESS   DUAL_WALLET_PROVIDER_NAME   DUAL_POOL_NAME   DUAL_POOL_DNS   DUAL_POOL_PORT   BTC_ADDRESS   BTC_ADDRESS_PROVIDER   COMMENT

Later it will be possible to add more columns in the file.
For example, if papami or damNmad (i don't remmeber who work on this) produces us a profit script, it would be possible to add a SWITCH_PROFIT column whose value could be as YES or NO. Thus, the profit script would compare only selected coins with each other and mine for the best profit while choosing oneself each coin we chose (not the coins proposals of the pools).

I do not know if I formulated my idea correctly, but to summarize, it was to make a database file in CSV format that we could thus insert more easily into excel or calc.

this would also greatly reduce the 1bash file but would not remove any utility

@papampi i really dont hope so because this usually results in death of cpu/board.

I have to make clear: this board has 4 leds to indicate state of board. it quickly passes the first two (drams and cpu ok), stays on "no power for gpu" for some seconds and then switches to "no bootable device" leds. If i unplug the primary pcie16x gpu from power it keeps glowing white (no gpu power). so i think there is no problem with board, but with bootable device

switching to notebook: i can boot a win10 setup with my stick without problems. Somehow I am not able to boot nvoc with my laptop, wether it is stick 1, stick 2, 80gb hdd, v0017, v0019, hddrawcopy or etcher. I think it is a problem created by win10 since this procedure worked with win7

e: I had no monitor at my rig so far, I think I need to switch rooms for that since my smallest LCD is 43 inch now. I wish there would be some microUSB2HDMI to plug in smartphones/tablets to rigs

e: fixed my problem by reordering gpus to mobo slots. thx for help

I switched my rig into a selfmade case yesterday and since then nothing works anymore. I used my 32GB USB 3.0 stick with nvoc0017 for some months now but after I put every hardware together in the new case, my asus prime Z270-a just blinks green, wich means problem with bootable device.

I put my stick into my laptop but it does not boot from usb. My win10 stick boots flawlessly. I reinstalled v0017 with hddrawcopy & etcher, tried another 16gb corsair surivor stick, tried v0019, even a 80gb hdd sata. no more boot from neither rig or laptop. I am clueless, only thing changed since my successful flash months ago: I installed win10, had win7 before.

Any ideas please?
May be motherboard is shorted in the process of moving.
Does it boot with any other OS?
can you get to bios ?
Have a look at this post :

Hello guys,

I have a question who uses p106-100 gpu.

Here's my settings:

95W
Core: 100
Mem: 1400

And I'm getting 290~298sols.

Now when I tried to lower my power limit to 75W. The card still draws 90W.

Nvidia-shows that it has a power limit of 75W but still consumes 90W. Does anyone had this issue?

Power limit is a percentage based on the card's TDP (thermal design power) which for a p106-100 is 120W. So in your case power limit @ 75% of 120W is 90W.

This answer is correct for Windows only (using Afterburner, PL is shown in percentage). On linux, power limit is in watts.

How did you measure your power draw? If nvidia-smi is showing you 75W then that's how much power your GPU is drawing. If you are using kill-a-watt to measure power draw at the wall, it should show higher number which is normal. How much more it depends on your power supply efficiency. Platinum rated power supplies have 92-94% efficiency, Bronze rated have 80% efficiency, the rest is dissipated on heat. If you are using Bronze power supply for every 80W supplied to the GPU you are drawing 100W from the wall. On top of that add some power that motherboard, CPU, RAM are drawing... it pays to invest in Platinum power supply, over time you will save quite a lot.
As damNmad suggested, try setting individual power limits if you are experiencing incorrect PL and is not related to the above explanation.

I doubt that, percentage is in windows but where as in Linux(nvOC), what you enter is the watt, If i enter 76 as my POWER_LIMIT then it stays on that. Even I check it on 'nvidia-smi' command.

I would suggest to check it first using

Code:
nvidia-smi

after it started mining for a while and also make a note what is the POWER_LIMIT values when 'Maxximus007_AUTO_TEMPERATURE_CONTROL' tab has started.

What I'm trying to say is; in simple terms there was an issue with the power limit and clock's variables (has been fixed in v0019-1.1), even you set some power limit normally, it might be pulling it from individual power limits. Please check.

This is slightly off topic, but I'm guessing  you were able to login to SSH. Can anyone share the default root password for SSH?

I tried the one listed of 'miner1' but I'm not able to gain access. Version I just installed is v0019-1.

Thank you!

to ssh into a rig from a *nix system use:

ssh m1@IPADDRESSHERE

then miner1 is the password

watch the end of the v0019 demo video for a visual example.

Just to clarify this a bit...
You can't login as "root" user trough ssh. Login as "m1" (pass: miner1) then type: su to switch to root user (same pass), or just use sudo to execute a single command as root while logged in as m1

hashing time :
14:33 => 14h59 ==> 26 min

What miner for cryptonight should I use while waiting for a solution ?

Should I continue with that of Salfter or that of Klaust even if they bug within 30 minutes both ?

Hi try xmr-stak-nvidia, it should be in the xmr/stakGPU/bin folder, you'll need to edit the config.txt file to account for the number of GPU's, there is a post explaining how to make the changes about 10-20 pages back.


I've been looking for, but I'm not sure I've found it, and besides, I'm not sure it's possible to use it with the MPH-switching-profit of salfter at the same time as the more CPU mining.

you can simultaneously cpu mine with another miner while mining xmr-stak-nvidia. I can't speak for the MPH-profit-switching, but I don't see why not.

v0019-1 update:

Lots of changes; please keep in mind this update is beta: it will most likely have some bugs, if you don't want to deal with any bugs you can wait until any issues have already been found and fixed by the community.

Before updating; please copy your 1bash (and any other files you have changed/customized) to a different directory (such as the desktop).

To update:

open 1bash with gedit and ensure:

Code:
AUTO_UPDATE="BETA" 

close any terminal currently open; then:

open a guake terminal ( press f12 ) and type the following, then press enter:

Code:
bash 4update

This will launch 4update which will update your 2unix file.  

When 4update is done; gnome-terminal will auto launch.  

The new 2unix will detect your v0019 is not -1 and launch the update.

The update will install all system updates including the newest Nvidia driver.  Then update nvOC files.

When it is done your rig will reboot automatically.  

Your 1bash will be copied to a file named: your_old_1bash as a new version is required for some of the updates.  

You can copy and paste your pools / addresses into the new 1bash.  ( I will eventually automate this)

v0019-1 can support up to 19x GPUs; however it is unlikely you will be able to get more than 13x GPUs to work correctly with the new Asus 19x mobo.

Edit Additional info:

Lots of new COIN selections from damNmad and some from papampi.  I will add a full change log to the OP later today.

Thank you so much fullZero for the major update Smiley

I've planned to add this in my next update, but you have done it already Cheesy

Code:
HCD=/home/m1/eth/$CLAYMORE_VERSION/ethdcrminer64

Much needed and much better update in my opinion.

In future (hopefully) users need not to edit 1bash for every update; thanks again amigo Smiley

EDIT :

I will report all the bugs/issues noticed here

Point_1

I've noticed this file is missing from papampi version:

Code:
REBOOT_REQUIRED=$(/home/m1/reboot-required)

TELEGRAM throwing this warning or sort of:

Code:
m1@m1-desktop:~$ bash /home/m1/BaliMiner_TELEGRAM_ALERTS
/home/m1/telegram: line 40: /home/m1/reboot-required: No such file or directory

I guess its a simple fix from papampi; providing the code and save that code into a reboot-required file

&&

For people who don't want to skip that warning by just commenting out this line in /home/m1/telegram file
Code:
#REBOOT_REQUIRED=$(/home/m1/reboot-required)

If your telegram bot not working while selecting 'papampi'; change this:
Code:
APIKEY=$TELEGRAM_ALERT_APIKEY

to
Code:
APIKEY=$TELEGRAM_APIKEY

Point_2

No matter what; cc and mc are taken from INDIVIDUAL_CLOCKS  _0 values

Code:
INDIVIDUAL_CLOCKS="NO"      	# YES NO

# Set individual clocks here if INDIVIDUAL_CLOCKS="YES"
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_0=150
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK_0=100


Happened while mining SIGT with these options

Code:
COIN="SIGT"

Maxximus007_AUTO_TEMPERATURE_CONTROL="YES"

IAmNotAJeep_and_Maxximus007_WATCHDOG="YES"

# SET OC and POWERLIMIT by ALGO (see end of 1bash for ALGO OC settings)

damNmad_ALGO_SPECIFIC_OC="YES"

POWERLIMIT="YES"               # YES NO

POWERLIMIT_WATTS=76

__CORE_OVERCLOCK=150
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK=100

Code:
INDIVIDUAL_CLOCKS="NO"      	# YES NO

# Set individual clocks here if INDIVIDUAL_CLOCKS="YES"
__CORE_OVERCLOCK_0=150
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK_0=-1000

Code:
if [ $COIN == "SIGT" -o $COIN == "ZPOOL_SKUNK" ]
then
POWERLIMIT_WATTS=80
__CORE_OVERCLOCK=150
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK=600
fi

Target Temperature also behaving same; getting value from TARGET_TEMP_0 and applying it on all GPU's (in AUTO_TEMP)

Code:
INDIVIDUAL_TARGET_TEMPS="NO"   	# YES NO

# Set individual target temps here if INDIVIDUAL_TARGET_TEMPS="YES"
TARGET_TEMP_0=60

Please let me know if I've missed or mistook something!!






For checking if reboot is required in telegram add a reboot-required file

Put these inside:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
if [ -f /var/run/reboot-required ]; then
  echo 'yes'
else
echo 'No'
fi

make executable by running this command:
Code:
chmod +x reboot-required


Edit:
A better way is to open telegram file
in papampi section find this line :
Code:
REBOOT_REQUIRED=$(/home/m1/reboot-required)
and change it to :
Code:
REBOOT_REQUIRED=$([ -f /var/run/reboot-required ] && echo "Yes!!!" || echo "No")

It seems its left out in the message line as well, add it to MSG :

Code:
MSG=" Worker: $WORKERNAME
Reboot Required: $REBOOT_REQUIRED
... REST_of_The_Message
"

I think I fixed these in -1.1; let me know.

Yeah, the 2nd issue has been fixed for good, I haven't tested 'papampi' telegram version (issue_1) in this update, but can see the telegram api variable has been changed in this update. Thanks for the prompt and quick update fullzero Smiley

So I had a three card riser-less build (well actually one was on a riser since the AORUS are huge, no issues with this setup)

1080 ti / 1080 ti / 1070  mini

I moved to a 6 card riser build and now I have this issue . . any ideas?
(1070 mini 1070 mini 1080 TI 1080 TI 1070 mini 1070 mini
software or hardware and then what?

This should be a 3k average sols rig

Added more details below ////




2x 1080 TI + 1070 earning the same as 2x 1080 TI 4x 1070

(1.8k sol rig avg)


3k sol rig, avg 2.6k due to error, but its as if all 3 of the 1070s on the second PSU (connected add2psu PSU1 to mobo/cpu/all risers +pata to Add2psu / PSU2 mobo to add2psu+3x 1070 mini


nvOC_19 on both . .


@crazydane On average I get the best daily returns from suprnova/luck/zhash roughly maybe in that order? if my miner finds a block on luck it obviously comes out ahead. I'm using luck because it's easy to look at basic stats individually



Also in other news . . that's actually good news. .  my bitmain antminer d3 has arrived and is hashing away 2 gh/s higher than advertised from 15.5 to 17.5 iirc




When is antOC_19 coming out fullzero? xD

Hey guys still dealing with this issue . . . can anyone lend me a hand here at a bit of a loss

https://luckpool.org/workers/znVUjim9waxP73P5jQ76ezdMpvgTYVnPp3r

It's averaged out to be a bout correct but a couple times a day its still completely dropping. .

It looks like your client is softcrashing and watchdog is restarting it.  If you are using a mixed rig the most likely reason is the GPU index is counter intutive ( I have had this problem many times with mixed rigs)  try using the cmd:
Code:
sudo echo 'export CUDA_DEVICE_ORDER=PCI_BUS_ID' | sudo tee -a /etc/profile.d/cuda-device-order.sh

in the guake terminal then reboot and ensure your GPUs are OCed / PLed in the same index as the system recognizes them.

If it works Thank:  car1999 + leenoox

I added this to the -1 update.

Let me know if this works.
You can also enable the telegram, to let you know whats goin on
I will post a new one tomorrow.

ewbf 3_3 does not have the 2% fee

What makes 3_4 more effective? Anyone using 3_3 with the same performance as 3_4?
I use 3_3, it's 2% slower than 3_4.
So thats exactly the dev fee, have you tried dstm zminer ?
its available in v19.1
it also has 2% dev fee
I installed and run datm zminer days ago, didn't see performance improvement. So I'll stick to ewbf. If dstm has 1% dev fee, I'll use it.
