Hello, I have a weird problem. Telemetry doesn't work well. The 20000 port doesn't work, even in local host. But 10555 other port works. It's like the port has been blocked. The windows firewall is disabled.
Is it possible that my RJ45 switch is the problem, even in localhost? It's a old professionnal manageable switch. I hope it's not that because I bought it for only 10€ because the owner lost the manager password lol

the problem is I need 20000 port to monitore with foreman. I want to receive a mail when my rigs stop, like with ethman or foreman.

thx

Hi Dark Oopa,
from what you describe it looks that port 20000 is not available for miniZ.

Run resmon command on Windows. Go to tab : "Network"->"Listening Ports", and check which process is using 20000 port, in "Port" column.
Looks like this

If the port is not being used then, probably, it is a firewall issue.
It seems unlikely that your switch is causing this problem.

Hope this helps.
Keep us posted on the progress.
Cheers

After much struggle for stability with the 4x1080ti and 1x1660ti rig I have discovered, on this machine anyway, that the 1660 does not tolerate any OC at all. I quit struggling to find a safe number and went to zero on OC as it kept shutting down the whole rig. Now, mild OC on the 1080s and zero OC on the 1660 seems to have provided stability. ~400 hashes. Wattage at wall is still high around 1300 but I will try to tune out some juice on the 1080s while letting the 1660 alone at 85%. Hope this info helps. As for the "Duke", looking to trade that headache for a couple of peace loving MSI gaming 1070s. Thanks.

4x1080ti plus 1x1660ti hashing steady last 24 hrs at 400 Sols. `1350 watts at the wall.
8gb ram 60mb virtual memory up from 56mb. cuda10 win10 419 drivers. It required bios upgrade to MB to find the 1660 and make it all work together. A 1080ti "Duke" just doesn't like to play nice with other cards. Hash rate and power are unimpressive numbers but I will mess with them a bit after I get caught up. Sad to report the 1660 is Not HOT like I was told. ~40-41 hashes at 110 watts. I was expecting closer to 60. Maybe it is great on other algorithms or for gaming but just kinda disappointing on 144_5. Thanks for all the help.

Hi BigHarryArmsi,

nice that you managed to increase the pagefile and do the upgrade to run miniZ.

The total hash rate doesn't seem low. We do not have numbers for the 1660 Ti besides the ones people report.
60 sol seems a bit high, did you see this number somewhere?
We hope you manage to adjust OC for the best performance and efficiency.

If you're limiting power you can try to run miniZ with --f11=0 (for 144,5 only).
Check post https://miniz.ch/2019/02/26/improving-performance-lower-power/

We have been improving support/help feedback on our page.
Check https://miniz.ch/faq/ and https://miniz.ch/usage/

The new miniZ version might improve performance for the 1660 Ti. (coming soon)

Cheers

* btw what's up with the 1080 Ti Duke?

We did not test miniZ for that GPU specifically, however miniZ supports that GPU family.
Be sure that you are using miniZ Cuda 10 version.

In this forum, recently, there was a comment from another person that runs miniZ on a GTX 1660 Ti without problems.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50034911 (#193)

For stability, try to increase the pagefile a bit more. (Do you have 4x1080Ti plus 1x1660 on the same rig?)
If you need help, for example, you can see how to manage this here.

Let us know how it goes!
Cheers

Hi BigHarryArmsi,

The bat file should have 4 lines.

Yes, and thank you again for offering to help. After a very long nap I decided to give this another go, miniZ. The (>>) you see were just arrows to point to what I have in my .bat file. The question no one seems to be able to answer for me is how do I get this .bat into the exe file?? I have a notepad here with the correct .bat file on it and need to put it into a folder with the .exe but no one can tell me how to do that. I created a new "folder' (yippee) now how do I put this .bat file into it and where do I get the miniZ.exe? Sorry to take so much of your time but the downloads were too minimal for an ignorant old fk like me. update... so I now have the .bat file in the new folder but where does the .exe come from?
final update... well praise God! with the help of my loving Filipina wife we figured out how to get this done. Hashing ~4% over Gminer on a 5x6gb 1060 + one 1080 rig. Now to tune it and put it to work on the other 4 machines. Thank you for your patience.
update... any way to add an auto restart to this file? thank you!

Hi BigHarryArmsi,

it's great that you managed to get such lovely help and got miniZ running!

Just to see if we understand exactly what you want, can you specify better what you mean by 'auto restart'?
Do you mean a restart of the miner when it exits/crashes? In this case you can change the bat file to:

Code:

:loop
miniZ.exe --pers=BitcoinZ --url t1h7WGHNLx8hY97UerETfDPVfVj9QqNM94d.n3@mine-btcz-na.equipool.1ds.us:50063 --log --extra --pass minpayout=4000
timeout /t 5
goto loop

Hi BigHarryArmsi,
let's see if we can help a bit more.

First, check if you have this (and only this) line in the bat file. As you see in the screenshot https://i.ibb.co/dL2cWy9/help.png (top window)

Code:

miniZ.exe --pers=BitcoinZ --url t1h7WGHNLx8hY97UerETfDPVfVj9QqNM94d.n3@mine-btcz-na.equipool.1ds.us:50063 --log --extra --pass minpayout=4000

Please check that no '>>' are in there in the begining of the line. If you have the '>>' there, just delete them and save.
Then try again.

Second, check you have a folder with the two files: miniZ.exe and miniZ_btcz.bat. As you see in the same screenshot (bottom window)

Finally, doubleclick on miniZ_btcz.bat.

Tell us what happens now.

Cheers

** edit ** Too open the bat on notepad, just right click on the file and chose 'Edit' from the menu.

Hi MadOptiX,

seems that ~90GB is not enough. You will need to increase a bit more. (Try ~100 it might work)
Windows reserves more memory than what is effectively required by the miner.

Keep us posted.

Hi MadOptiX,

It seems that you are using Windows Cuda 10 version, right?

Looks that you need to increase the pagefile by 16-20GB (maybe more...)
For example, you can see how to manage this here.

Your problem seems to be similar to this https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.49140611 (from thereal 35), but with way more GPU

Let us know if this worked.

Hi supervitek,

You are right!

It is not working in Windows, sorry about this.
We already fixed this, it will be fine in the next version! (coming soon)

It works in Linux, but it will also run better in the next version.

Again, sorry about this but thanks a lot for the feedback!
Cheers!

ps: Good that you sent a screenshot. When asking for support it is good to provide some details such as miner version and OS (Windows or Linux). GPU and pool can be relevant too.

You are welcome! You know the miner is still crushing often so I had to use "Restart on crash" program to monitor it crashes and restart it. Even with that I still prefer your miner because the hash rate ave very good compare to others. Other miners are not crashing on the same algo and on different algos as well, so it is not the system/drivers/videocard issue. )

Hi supervitek,

We would like to understand what is causing the crashes.
Can you give us some more details?
1. Do you get any error message? If you have a logfile or can send a screenshot it can be helpful.
2. Do you run miniZ in one 1060 3GB? Or does it crash with other GPUs as well?

Thanks!
