hello folks, i have an issue which seems only to appear when using SMOS.

from time to time i get an "failure" for an gpu saying:

enabled persistence mode for GPU 000000000:01:00.0.
enabled persistence mode for GPU 000000000:01:02.0.
enabled persistence mode for GPU 000000000:01:05.0.
enabled persistence mode for GPU 000000000:01:07.0.

that results in have an extremely low hashrate in that specific card.

does anybody know how to fix this or at least whats the cause of it? thanks ahead

Seems like we're back to sessions timing out very quickly, though this had been less of a problem until recently. Did something change server side?

Well, tell you what - I'll try answer some of your questions

1.  If anyone can tell me how I can increase the hashrate?
Increasing the hashrate can be accomplished by a number of things, ranging from the obvious voltage and core/memory speed settings, to motherboard purchases, driver upgrades, and using specific cards for certain coin algorithms.  Depending on the cards you have, there are tools available (with varying levels of capability depending on OS) that will allow you to modify those settings.  The type motherboard and bios settings can also affect hash rate.  Check your motherboard documentation to see if it supports higher rate pci-e speeds.  Drivers are a big influence in hashrate.  If the mining software is unable to quickly load/offload data from the GPUs, you will have poor hash rates.  Speaking of miners - some miners do better on certain coins than others, and that being said - the GPU itself may (or may not) be better suited for the type of math associated with a certain coin.

2. Am I have to do the bios modding for gpus??
Normally, the BIOS on the cards is suitable.  You say you are relatively new to this sort of stuff - loading GPU BIOS is a risky task that you probably shouldn't do unless you have significant experience (double that in with Linux OS's).  Failed BIOS upgrades are not forgiving - you will almost certainly render your card brain-dead

3.  Is there any way that I can do bios modding or timing changing on SMOS??
You can make speed, voltage, and Fan setting modifications in SMOS

4.  Or am I have to run windows first to flash bios for gpus then I should rerun SMOS??
I would not bother flashing BIOS unless there is a problem that is preventing the cards from working with your OS/mining software.

5.  If so how I am gonna flash 12 cards in windows??
Refer to the answer in question #4.  Otherwise, you do it one at a time

Hope this helps - good luck!!

Thanks for your response pwalker, patience is the key indeed thats why I constantly read and watch and listen all gained experiences before. I believe I have some fundamental issues and also lack of knowledge about computer components and OS. Gladly I can reach thousands of people who joined cyprto world mining together, increasing shares, making profit and gain benefit together. Im sure I ll get the answer I need, hopefully soon.

Myself and a few others have the same issue. It's always with GPU0. It's not a hardware issue because it will perform fine in Windows, and doesn't make sense that others would have the same issue with only GPU0. Sadly, I haven't received any advice on how to resolve it or acknowledgement that anyone is listening to our issue.

Are you getting any error messages when booting up?  If the rig used to work, something must have
changed or been updated and is no longer compatible with the SR setup.  Connect a monitor and
see what's going on.

Hi,
Still nothing about email notification for: Rig crashes / GPU slowdown/crashes ?
HIgh temperature ?

Thanks

it's curious because, one of my RIG works perfectly with simplemining, this new. error i don't know why.
i was looking to rebuild a new usb key maybe it's the problem.

Borrow a friend's Windows machine

The simplemining.net site assumes that you have a windows PC.  But all my computers are Linux only. 

How do I create a bootable Simpleminer drive if I don't have a Windows PC?

Thanks

Jester -
Think you've answered your own questions with what you said in the second paragraph above.  Getting the best hashrate is like
brewing the best beer - it takes time, patience and more patience.  YouTube is a great reference for getting info on how to
overclock your cards, but figuring out the 'secret sauce' is going to be up to you 

Walter -
If you have installed the software properly, ssh will work.  If your rig is not available on simplemining.net,
you probably haven't completed the registration process (email in the conf file after building the drive).  There
are 2 accounts (root/miner) with pretty generic passwords, that I highly recommend changing once you get
things running.  Good luck!!

Hi,
i have some problems with one rig with simplemining

rig start, network is up, i can ping.
but i can't connect on ssh (connection refused) and miner not start (rig not available on simplemining.net)

is there any way to start ssh ? or to see what is wrong ? i have no display (remote admin)

thx for response

For people using the Asus B250 mining motherboard, has anyone gotten the reboot feature to work?  If my system reboots overnight, for some reason it just cannot start up again.

I have tried everything, it's so frustrating!

Could be many factors... The ones on top of my head: You may want to check if there's enough juice powering your rig. Also, could be a bad riser? try swapping PCIE riser with another GPU and see if the issue persist on the other GPU?

hi guys first of all I am really happy of joining to cyrpto world with using SMOS which is so easy to boot/use for a newbie like me so thank you tytanick you are doing a great job.

Since I started to mine with my first rig BIOSTAR TB250 BTC PRO 12GPU rig with rx580 red devil 8gb (no golden sample) I didnt encounter with any crash or system failure rig is smooth, mines ok. I am running the miner for 3days and I am still testing it. Watching videos spending hours to read and improve my knowledge to find ways to increase efficiency.

sometimes I am having a hard time understand your language guys, I need more simplified instructions to fix my issue. Here is my problem I hope someone can help me or direct a way to follow. My 8gb red devil rx580 s are mining on average 20.5 MH/s on ETH claymore v10 which is low, I expect to get 28-29 mh/s but I dont have any idea how to get that.

Everybody talks about modding the bios, flash the timing, use the polaris etc. makes sense but how. I build the rig hooked up the cables, made the bios change, inserted the usb stick with SMOS and system run by itself, was so easy. After couple hours I noticed the hash rate is very low I made some overclocking on SMOS settings increased little bit to 20.5MH/s lowered the energy consumption to 125w per card.

If anyone can tell me how I can increase the hashrate?
Am I have to do the bios modding for gpus??
Is there any way that I can do bios modding or timing changing on SMOS??
Or am I have to run windows first to flash bios for gpus then I should rerun SMOS??
If so how I am gonna flash 12 cards in windows??

I really appreciate your help and advise that I will follow to end that nightmare. Thank y'all

Thank you for the help with setting up my wallets!  I'm getting paid now! 

Just curious..All of the cards are the similar model Gigabyte GPU's...but there is like 75 Sol/s variation on one or two.  Stats below...GPU0 is the troubled one.

Thank you for last 2 updates. My simple mining OS rigs are working like a clock!.

I almost forgot to own mining rigs

How do you change the password/login from miner in shh?

Edit: it is command passwd

tytanyc pls add (Optiminer 2.0) , and tutorial mining minexcoin for suprnova pls.
