Hi Doc!

A strange behavior!
I've noticed that a long time ago but now I've decided to tell you.
It may help you debugging the code.

I've automated startup procedure for the miner whenever windows starts.
Let's take for example one of my rigs with 6 cards.
Windows boots and after a while miner starts.
After some time of stabilization watching memory usage in task manager I see it stable at  ~286 - 290 M.
If I kill the miner process and start it again giving it time to stabilize it stays at  ~560 - 570 M.
That's why I was saying all the time about "memory management".
I don't know but this is the behavior.
It may help.

Greetings!

ps:  in heavy algo.

well if you would follow this thread regulary you would know that this is very well known, and can be fixed by just fireing up GPU-Z Wink

Can't seem to get all my cards work. Always after a bit of mining, one card goes to 0h/s which is annoying. I have 10 vegas, used to work perfectly on srb version 1.4.9 till i updated to 1.5.4. Now After some mining one card hangs, then it can't even be detected, whole pc also hangs, I am trying 9 cards now to see if I get same error. Also re-enabled the watchdog to see if that helps.

go back to 1.4.9 for a few days and test. I think it's more a windows-update-driver-who knows problem, than miner new version problem.

so you just lower intensity for that one card.

thats what gpu_conf is for :

"gpu_conf" :
[
   { "id" : 0, "intensity" : 80, "worksize" : 8, "threads" : 1},
   { "id" : 1, "intensity" : 40, "worksize" : 8, "threads" : 2},
   { "id" : 3, "intensity" : 30, "worksize" : 8, "threads" : 2},
   { "id" : 4, "intensity" : 90, "worksize" : 8, "threads" : 1}
]

There's definitely a bug on updates after V1.5.4.  Miner stops hashing/hangs after GPU restart process(this is unusual and only happen when watchdog detected a 0 hashrate).

@doktor83 should I stop using start.bat?

Better explain me a little more what is happening and how, or attach some logs.

Like:
Miner works, then video driver crashes in mean time, and GPU starts hashing with speed 0 h/s. Watchdog after 3 rounds of 45 sec restarts miner. It restarted successfully and mining starts again/It couldnt restart miner, and it showed an error ................., or no error miner did not restart but this happened .......

If you want me to fix something give me more info people.

Log enable rig 1.

Rig 2  : https://imgur.com/a/7I87eEy




Rig1 and Rig2 are probably on the same location (same ip) ?


i left it work over night :



had no banned ip's

don't bother with miner version, thats just the text, nothing has been changed yet Smiley

Hi hesido!

do you have 13 cards running on the same machine?
are all these cards AMD brand?
All I want to know is how many cards of the same type (AMD) we can run under Win10.

Thanks in advance
istr

Yes, on 13 cards on a single machine, all AMD. Asus B250 miner m/b.


Thanks,
But do you or someone else know how many AMD cards can we run simultaneously on a single machine under win10?
Can we run all 19 cards ASUS B250 Mining Expert supports?

Дoктop, мнe oчeнь нpaвятcя твoи пpoдyкты. Иcпoльзyю SRBPolaris и SRBMiner. Xoтeлocь бы бoльшe cвoбoды для SRBMiner юзepa в oбpaбoткe watchdog's events или pools'events. Пoжaлyйcтa, пoзвoль юзepaм caмим пpинимaть дeйcтвия пo coбытиям watchdog из бaт фaйлoв. Для мaйнepa вaжны: cтaбильнocть мaйнингa, выcoкий xэшpeйт, yдaлeнный мoнитopинг. Bce лишнee тoлькo нaпpягaeт, типa мaйнингa нa CPU. Лyчшим peшeниeм былo бы cдeлaть eгo oтдeльнo oт мaйнингa нa discrete gpus.

Пoкa лyчшaя твoя вepcия этo 1.5.4 нa дpaйвepax 18.4.1. Ho вcё paвнo - Drop HR вceгдa пocлe coбытия "socket_error: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host."

Doctor, I really like your products. I use SRBPolaris and SRBMiner. I would like more freedom for SRBMiner user in watchdog's events or pools'events by bat files. Please allow users to take actions on watchdog's events from bat files themselves. For the miner, the following are important: stability of mining, remote monitoring, high hashrate. Mining on the CPU it is actually for few miners. The best solution would be to make it separate from the mining on discrete gpus.

While your best version is 1.5.4 on drivers 18.4.1. But still - Drop HR always after the event "socket_error: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host" or Internet connection lost.

With best wishes from Russia.

doktor, is the miner switching algo automatically between cryptonight and normalv7? I'm able to connect and mine on etn.spacepools.org using normalv7 despite the coin not forking until the morning?...  Huh

EDIT: I don't think so. I think they've directed v7 hash onto a testnet of some sorts. I'm submitting shares but I'm not getting paid for the hash.

This is interesting, devfee pool is the same pool you are using. I ran B2N for 12 hours for test and got 6 devfee connects, but not one banned ip message.
I guess that pool is 'too sensitive'
