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

I'm mining ZEN using EWBF.  I'm trying to find the EWBF start.bat file so that I can add --api 10.0.1.53:4200 to it like I had when running EWBF under windows, but I'm not having much luck.  Any advice on how to add that would be appreciated.  This way I can monitor the miner from another machine on my LAN.

I found this on the net:

Code:
in the ZEC section of oneBash apx line 811:

if [ $COIN == "ZEC" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/zec/miner'
ZECADDR="$ZEC_ADDRESS.$ZEC_WORKER"
until $HCD --eexit 3 --fee $EWBF_PERCENT --pec --server $ZEC_POOL --user $ZECADDR --pass z --port $ZEC_PORT;
   do
   echo "FAILURE; reinit in 5" >&2
   sleep 5
done
fi

change this line:

until $HCD --eexit 3 --fee $EWBF_PERCENT --pec --server $ZEC_POOL --user $ZECADDR --pass z --port $ZEC_PORT;


to:

until $HCD --eexit 3 --fee $EWBF_PERCENT --pec --server $ZEC_POOL --user $ZECADDR --pass z --port $ZEC_PORT --api;

this will for the EWBF default: 127.0.0.1:42000,

But don't see this section in the 1bash file.

You don't see that in 1bash, all the back end code has been moved into 3main file (from nvOC v19) you can see in home folder.


in the ZEC section of 3main apx line 811:

Code:
if [ $COIN == "ZEC" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/zec/miner'
ZECADDR="$ZEC_ADDRESS.$ZEC_WORKER"
until $HCD --eexit 3 --fee $EWBF_PERCENT --pec --server $ZEC_POOL --user $ZECADDR --pass z --port $ZEC_PORT;
   do
   echo "FAILURE; reinit in 5" >&2
   sleep 5
done
fi

change this line:

Code:
until $HCD --eexit 3 --fee $EWBF_PERCENT --pec --server $ZEC_POOL --user $ZECADDR --pass z --port $ZEC_PORT;

to:

Code:
until $HCD --eexit 3 --fee $EWBF_PERCENT --pec --server $ZEC_POOL --user $ZECADDR --pass z --port $ZEC_PORT --api;
this will for the EWBF default: 127.0.0.1:42000

Hey all --

So I've upgraded from v018 to v019.  All works just fine and my single rig with 6x 1070 GPUs has no issues.

I run all my fans at 70% in manual with my GPUs power limited to 115 watts which seems to be a-ok and I've never tried the watchdog yet.

My question is this -- If I use the watchdog &/or the automatic fan control will my mining rate be any faster?

Fogcity
Nope, watchdog and temp control just make your mining more stable.

Thought I would give an update. After adjusting the power settings and doing some specific troubleshooting I have gotten the rig stable for 24 hours.

I took fullzero and Maxximus007 suggestions on the power settings and give it a bit more with more modest OC. It seems to have resolved the issue, as well I have found that one of the cards was not liking bigger OC's while the other 5 worked fine.

This was the outcome.
ETH - Total Speed: 180.068 Mh/s, Total Shares: 2000, Rejected: 0, Time: 15:48
ETH: GPU0 30.198 Mh/s, GPU1 30.240 Mh/s, GPU2 30.186 Mh/s, GPU3 29.500 Mh/s, GPU4 30.086 Mh/s, GPU5 29.857 Mh/s
SC - Total Speed: 1200.451 Mh/s, Total Shares: 429, Rejected: 0
SC: GPU0 201.322 Mh/s, GPU1 201.599 Mh/s, GPU2 201.240 Mh/s, GPU3 196.667 Mh/s, GPU4 200.575 Mh/s, GPU5 199.048 Mh/s
GPU0 t=62C fan=75%, GPU1 t=48C fan=75%, GPU2 t=64C fan=75%, GPU3 t=61C fan=75%, GPU4 t=60C fan=75%, GPU5 t=49C fan=75%

As for the settings, I have the following settings:
5 cards:
Overclock
cc 100
mc 1275
Powerlimit: 125 watts
1 card:
cc -100
mc 1225
Powerlimit: 120 watts
(this card does not like OC had to tweak it some for it to not cause instability within the rig)

Total watts from the wall: 866/867

I am still taking fullzero advice and adding 4 GB more of RAM it will be here in the next few days.

Maxximus007 or fullzero if you have a BTC,ETH address I would like to send you a small thank you for the help on troubleshooting.



Just wanted to let you know following similar/near identical OC configs on my 1070s has had great results! I am getting a stable 31.5MH/s from each of my 1070s Smiley

Can someone please tell me where the logs are stored for claymore miner ?

I have a GPU which is causing the miner to reset and I would like to see which GPU it is from the log
You should enable logging in 3main
find the claymore line in 3main and add L to arguments like this :

from
Code:
screen -dmS miner $HCD ... 
to
Code:
screen -dmSL miner $HCD ..... 

then you get a screenlog.0

This will work; as will modifying the code block in 3main for the COIN you are mining to enable Claymore logs.

Thanks for this

I made the change in 3main and there is a screenlog.0 file that has appeared but when I try open it up I get an error "this file is of unknown type"
Right click on the file > properties > open with >  "gedit"  
Set default.OK.
Double click screenlog.0

Legend
Thanks
After checking the log I can see I'm getting "illegal memory access" on all GPUs then GPU failed restart miner.
Then claymore resets and it occurs again after 1-2hours
Settings haven't changed from before and previously  it was stable for 4 days prior.
I have reduced the memory clock a little for now and will see what happens.
Any ideas ?
Usually thats too much OC, reduce and raise slowly.
What are your cards?

Edited my last post added this:

In gauke terminal you can watch real time log with :
Code:
tail -f ~/screenlog.0

I just made some changes to use dropbox folder.
Tested and working with no problems

Just dont know if we need to convert the file any more or not

@fullzero
is it ok to remove dos2unix line since its not downloaded from web pgae?
I Tested without dos2unix and its working fine. is it needed?

Code:
sudo dos2unix /home/m1/temp1bash
and
Code:
sudo dos2unix /home/m1/1bash


Install dropbox
Code:
sudo apt install nautilus-dropbox
Sign in
Use selective sync,
Select the folder you want to sync
Dont forget to put your 1bash in the folder (and always keep an edited working 1bash in a safe place in case you make a mistake)

Edit 1bash :
Code:
_Parallax_MODE="YES"             # YES NO

        pasteBASH="/home/m1/Dropbox/YOUR_DROPBOX_SHARED_FOLDER/1bash"
        upPASTE_TIMEOUT_IN_MINUTES=30  ##  

Edit upPASTE:

From :
Code:
cd /tmp
wget https://pastebin.com/raw/$pasteBASH
sleep 2
cp $pasteBASH '/home/m1/temp1bash'
sleep 2
rm $pasteBASH
sleep 2
sudo dos2unix /home/m1/temp1bash
sleep 15

To :
Code:
#cd /tmp
#wget https://pastebin.com/raw/$pasteBASH
#sleep 2
cp $pasteBASH '/home/m1/temp1bash'
sleep 2
#rm $pasteBASH
#sleep 2
sudo dos2unix /home/m1/temp1bash

What do you think about integrating dropbox like pastebin too
I think It has so much more benefits than pastebin.
It can be either as a dropbox file link or a dropbox folder to check the files inside it.

If enough members want to use dropbox, I can integrate downloading of a file link set in 1bash.
Nowadays almost every one have a dropbox, google drive, ....
With dropbox, we can edit from any where with our favorite editor and not only on pastebin webpage

We have 2 approach to dropbox
1- install dropbox and use selective folder sync
2- use a dropbox link just like pastebin

I think if we use a selective dropbox sync folder and upPASTE read the file from that folder it solve users problems with pastebin timeout,
and then we can set lower time to check and not worry about too many times downloading same file , ....

Hi guys

i have a problem if anyone can give me a fix. I am using Salfter profit switch MPH or nicehash, but it automatically gives me ethminer. is there any way to set it using claymore instead or if it is also possible to set it if mining eth (most profitable) it starts in dual mining mode.
thanks

anyone?

has anyone figure out how to setup dual eth lbc. i use nicehash and got some strange error and wont mine, if i set allpools 1 it wont connect to eth, if i set other pool for eth, lbc wont work

bump :/

Yes 1bash is there in your home directory
just Open up file manager and double click 1bash, it should be opened in gedit.
Have no experience with 980, but eth usually need underclock and over mem clock,
so just do tests and see where is the most stable/profitable point.
On 1070 I set -100 CC and +900 MC

Thank you!

Greetings, i am in the process of setting up a 13 card rig to see what the world of mining is like. So i have run into an issue that seems odd. I have looked around and have not seen it. So here it is.

My miner keeps telling me it failed to connect to the host and i am not sure why. I am trying to use suprnova.cc pool

I set coin to ZEN
I then changed my worker name to my pool worker name
i have set the address to stratum+tcp://zen.suprnova.cc
i have set the port to 3618
and i have put my wallet address in.

So what am i missing? On my Windows rig i have to put worker name and password info in but i do not see any place to enter that. then when i start it up it just keeps failing to connect to host.

I've issue with connecting to stratum pool using EWBF;

try this:
Code:
ZEN_WORKER="yourSuprnovaWorkerName"
ZEN_ADDRESS="yourSuprNovaLoginName"
ZEN_POOL="zen.suprnova.cc"
ZEN_PORT="3618"



This should work; let me know if it doesn't.

ok progress has been made but now I am getting a stratum authorization error. below is basically what I have. do I not need to put the worker password somewhere? also I do appreciate the help. thanks

ZEN_WORKER="tempworker1"
ZEN_ADDRESS="yourSuprNovaLoginName"
ZEN_POOL="zen.suprnova.cc"
ZEN_PORT="3618"


well I feel real stupid. I am up and running. thank you for the help. I miss typed name I used the log in info not the user name. it was a me issue lol
did you make the worker in suprnova worker page ?


Yeah I had set up the worker. what I messed up on was, I had another log in for my windows machine and my brilliant self miss matched the log in and worker names. so yeah your solution was spot on it was just me who managed to un-fix your help lol. but seriously thanks for the help. this is my first venture into Linux for mining. 13 cards per motherboard seems way more efficient than 8. and my 1070's are even managing to get into the 480/sols not 1080 TIs but very respectable for the card.

Don't worry, I've learned these stuff after so many trials, I will try to make a tutorial on how to use suprNova, miningpoolhub or such websites on my blog soon.

Hello papampi; hope you are well Smiley

I believe we can compile it well but when we try to use it fails to mine with some weird errors!! or it has been fixed?
Hi mate
Could you manage to mine sib x11ghost?
Any miner I try give me some kind of error.

Yes I have, sent it to fullzero in my latest update, it will appear in coming update.

Code:
SIB_WORKER="worker"
SIB_ADDRESS="loginName"
SIB_POOL="stratum+tcp://sib.suprnova.cc:3458"
SIB_INTENSITY="21"

Code:

if [ $COIN == "SIB" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/TPccminer/ccminer'
ADDR="$SIB_ADDRESS.$SIB_WORKER"

screen -dmSL miner $HCD -a sib -o $PXC_POOL -u $ADDR -p x -i $SIB_INTENSITY

if [ $LOCALorREMOTE == "LOCAL" ]
then
screen -r miner
fi

BITCOIN="theGROUND"

while [ $BITCOIN == "theGROUND" ]
do
sleep 60
done
fi

Let me know if it works.

Hey, exciting to see this continue to improve Smiley

I have a question; In the earlier versions I usually Image my USB drive in Win 10, test that things work etc, then go back to Win 10 to adjust clockspeeds, templimits etc.
With version 0019, when I go back to Windows 10 to edit the 1bash file, it´s just not there on my USB (G:), was always there with 0018 and 0017.
Can I edit the 1bash from within Ubuntu/nvOC? Any tips on how to let me edit this file/find it again?

Also, a small request for the future; as a noob with no coding experience what so ever, I would greatly appreciate a .pdf or whatever in the OP explaining what SSH, SSR, watchdog and all that actually is/does, I´m kinda lost on that.. and maybe easy guides to set up things.

As a bonus question; anybody mining (ETH) with 980 / 980ti s? It´s what I have so that what I use... powerhungry yeah but electricity is cheap here.
Was wondering if it would be better to underclock the core and overclock mem, or vise versa, or what..?

I also wanna vent my frustration with USB wifi Dongles... every time I make a new image USB the Wifi in Ubuntu does not work, not until I connect a LAN cable and enable proprietary drivers.. Is this always gonna be a hassle in ubuntu?
Funny thing is Windows doesn´t recognize the dongle after I make it work in Ubuntu.. lol.. (yeah, I use my gaming PC/same PC for this).

Keep up the good work you guys! :-)

Hi guys,

I have recently built a new rig with 13 P106-100 ASUS cards on nv0019 running -200cc 1550mc and PL90. I have a weird problem that after some time the hashrate on all cards drop by 50% or more and doesn't go back up, the miner doesn't restart and it just keeps running with lower hashrate.  This time it did this after 7 hours , with 7 cards running it was up for over 12hours and no problems. Has anyone experienced this before and maybe you know where the problem is?

I am obviously running headless and using SSH to monitor the rig and adjust the settings.

PS. The miner or the OS doesn't restart the miner or reboot the system, just the hashrate drops pretty badly from 328 to 140 MH/s.

Thanks in advance to everyone who can help and also thanks to fullzero for the new version!


I've had similar issue, when one or two cards would semi-freeze, bringing the whole rig to work extremely slow. I added whole bunch of debug options in the watchdog to figure out what was going on... it turns out watcdog enters into a loop for counting down errors before trying to restart the mining process and it takes about 5-10 min to change the count by -1 and it won't catch the low utilization to restart the rig until few hours later.

The mining doesn't stop but continues at reduced hash speed, some cards drop from 25 to 13 MH/s, some down to 0.

To make it worst, during this semi-hang the driver changes p-state due to low/high utilization so it ends up with some cards at p2, some at p8 and some at p0 which screws the OC and makes more cards to hang.

I have some ideas to modify or even rewrite the watchdog to address these issues and will post it once finished. I am quite busy atm to work on it but I can post logs from the added debug so that devs can look into it.

Anyway, it turns out all of this was caused by two cards (same brand/model/memory) that couldn't handle the overclocking as the rest of the cards. By reducing the memory overclock on these two from 1820 to 1700 it stabilized the rig, no more hangups.

For now, reduce your overclock and give it a try, see if it fixes the problem. Please post back with results.
