@Voskcoin, i epriciate you youtube contribution and your openes. Thaks for the Panda miner warning.
Could you remind what that warning was about, please ? The warning was about the fire hazerds it did caused by users more often then other equipment. Beside that some info about the high noise level and low quality psu. About the overclocked D3 miner, i just read about it. Have no experience with overclocking. Thanks man I really appreciate when people say things like that, makes the videos worthwhile  |

Awesome stats man thanks for posting that. How much do you have invested into your solar array and what's the lifespan for it? Also for everyone that offset their heat with miners, is there a particular plan you have for that and do you kind of just put a rig in each room lol xD
I have 80 panels, each rated for 260W, so a total of 20.8 kW DC. Each panel cost roughly $200 and each micro inverter $100, so a total of $24,000. On top of that there is mounting for roof and ground, and running the electrical. I did it all myself, so I was able to do all that for an additional $3,500 in parts. So the grand total was $27,500 not counting my own labor. So that worked out to $1.32 per watt. Lifespan should be 25+ years. By then production will likely be down to 85% of what it is now due to the cells in the panels slowly degrading over time. As for heating the house with the miners, yeah, my plan is to spread them around the house. I thought about ducting it into my central HVAC, but decided it would probably have had more cons and pros. Wow man that is freaking awesome & impressive, would you mind sharing some pictures of the setup? What's your projected timeframe where the solar setup will pay for itself? You saved big $$$$ doing it yourself |

ATTENTION!!!! ATTENTION!!!!
ALREADY $60 PER DAY!
EVERYONE SHOULD THROW AWAY YOUR D3 ON DECEMBER!
Ah shut the hell up! Where do these idiots come from lol i lol'd hahahaha |

Recently I built a 12 cards rig, it run into low disk space in a few minutes, I found that /var/log/kern.log was eating the free space quickly. I followed this post to resolve the issue: https://askubuntu.com/questions/771899/pcie-bus-error-severity-correctedsteps: 1.open /etc/default/grub, I use vi, you can use other text editors. 2.replace GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" by GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash pci=nomsi", save and exit text editor. 3.sudo update-grub, sudo reboot I hope it helps. How can i determine if I am experiencing that issue? / was this causing intermittent restarts for you? run df to check disk space, it the free space is 0%, you might run into this issue, then check /var/log/kern.log to see if it is large. what is the command to run df? |

Run top, make note of the PID for the miner process (should show up at the top of the list after a few seconds, hit 'q', then do: Then wait 30 seconds or so for the watchdog to restart the miner. If you don't want the miner to restart, you have to stop the watchdog too. thank you so if I enable auto update = yes auto update is on stable, has fullzero pushed 19.1 to stable? so that will prompt 19.1? otherwise did it go beta .1 to beta .2? EDIT forgive for me the noob questions . . so I have screen -r miner activated, how to get back to the guake terminal where I can execute commands. I've previously just been doing workarounds . . for example I would just log off / on and restart etc but I want to start navigating this software more effectively EDIT 2 - How can I confirm my version of nvOC? 1.press Ctrl+A+D to exit screen, the miner runs on background. 2. the version number is always in the beginning of 1bash. Thank you / It appeared the update pushed successfully as my 1bash was replaced by a stock bash - however I glanced through the files before posting at the top of the 1bash it just states 19 not 19.1 /.2 etc |

[Reduced post] 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 3k sol rig, avg 2.6k due to error (connected add2psu PSU1 to mobo/cpu/all risers +pata to Add2psu / PSU2 mobo to add2psu+3x 1070 mini  nvOC_19 on both . . fullzero reply below 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: 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. ///////// Sorry for a ton of posts . . trying to knock this out before I go into work lol https://zhash.pro/workers/znVUjim9waxP73P5jQ76ezdMpvgTYVnPp3rhere is the exact rig, haven't touched a piece of hardware - the intermittent crashing was consistent across 2 zen pools and mining zec on flypool https://zcash.flypool.org/miners/t1WRoxHVh8vhDJxAr6vpP4zzj3xHGF9ZbgQ |

@VoskCoin That is the API build into the EWBF miner. When you launch EWBF you can add the following to the script:
--api minerip:42000
Where minerip is the IP address of your rig.
You then simply point a browser to minerip:42000 to get the above stats. They updated about every 30 seconds or so.
Thanks What are your thoughts on 3.3 vs 3.4 + could I load this feature into 3.3? I haven't done too much research on this yet, but if 3.3 has no fee and 3.4 has a fee - does 3.4 work my rigs harder to get the 2% increase that pays for the 2% fee? I have a rig that averages about 3k, it averaged about 3k on 3.4 and 3.3 . . so if the average is relatively the same wouldn't we be better off using 3.3? I use 3.3， get hashrate from pool api, get GPU usage from nvidia-smi, don't need the miner's api. if all of us use 3.3, globla hashrate drops, that's interesting. It's time to start a mining revolution! |

I believe the API was introduced in 3.4, but I'm not 100% (never ran 3.3). It is my understand as well that 3.4 is 2% faster but has the 2% dev as you mention. As to the rig working 2% harder in 3.4, that's an interesting through, but one that I have not looked into deeper. In theory, if 3.4 truly work the GPU's a little harder, perhaps there is a little more headroom in 3.3 to allow slightly higher clock boosts? Your quote of my earlier question about which pool is better for ZEN, I have now been on both Luck and Zhash, and my findings were as follows:  Granted I wasn't mining on the same days on both, but for me, I'd say Zhash gives a far better return than Luck. I will try to get 2 identical rigs, and have each mine a different pool at the same time so see what my results will be. Definitely want to look into that I can help you with whatever I can -- but its beyond my scope of skills really :C Ultimately though the 2% increase has to come from somewhere O_o Those are interesting findings, my luckpool and really zen earnings in general have been very low compared to the previous period. zhash suffered from the fake miner attack recently (miningspeed suffered from this as well) and I'm not sure if luckpool did . . but the earnings the last week or so definitely seemed like it. . . Today is actually the best day in awhile for me on luck aside from when I found a block a couple days ago https://luckpool.org/workers/znWcPtNkPCj6VfLRfMhf6i44DvHoeEfNbcdhere's a minez zone link https://minez.zone/workers/zngoZCdezZLWvkZkTPg42rePGG46JLs63H5I had a rig on zhash but all the issues the pool was having caused me to be profiting zero I need to lookup the exact day count, but all 3 of these rigs were launcheda t the same time suprnova / luckpool / minez zone Fresh wallets + can be verified on zen explorer  |

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: close any terminal currently open; then: open a guake terminal ( press f12 ) and type the following, then press enter: 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. how can i update to 19.1 and not 19.2? |

I agree this is an ewbf linux bug. Unfortunately the author does not seem to be active these days. My friend that is having the exact same issue took a look at the watchdog script and ripped out some logic to create an "apicheck" bash script. It goes like this: #!/bin/bash
source ~/1bash
#########################################################################
API_IS_UP=0
if nc -vzw1 $IPW 42000;
then
API_IS_UP=1
fi
echo ""
if [[ $API_IS_UP == 0 ]]
then
echo "$(date) - Miner api is down: reinitializing now"
# If miner runs in screen 'miner' kill the screen to be sure it's gone
pkill -e miner
# Kill 3main to re-init
target=$(ps -ef | awk '$NF~"3main" {print $2}')
kill $target
else
echo "$(date) - Miner api is up"
echo ""
fi
If would be awesome if the above logic could be incorporated into the official watchdog. It would also mean adding something like this to 1bash: USE_EWBF_API=YES
EWBF_API_PORT=42000
And modify 3main to launch EWBF with the api flag. Something along these lines: screen -dmS miner $HCD --eexit 3 --fee $EWBF_PERCENT --pec --server $ZEN_POOL --user $ZENADDR --pass z --port $ZEN_PORT --api $IP:$EWBF_API_PORT;
Thanks It just happened again. Here are my 4 miners, the one running ewbf on windows recovered fine, but the 3 running nvOC never did:  And here you can see the connectivity glitch on the pool right around 11am:  So adding the above tweaks to the distro should solve this. EDIT: My friend who is already running the above tweaks confirmed it worked perfectly. Thanks What interface is that ^? (not zhashpro) |

Here's my latest bill:  I have a 20kw solar array which is why I had no consumption from March - June and only a tiny bit in July, which is when I started mining. My usage would have been another 2,500 kWh this past month had it not been for the solar array. Here's my historical over the last 3 years:  I need to modify it to show my effective kWh rate with the solar offset. I'm doing about 14 ksol/s and Burst mining with 260Tb. I'm hoping the use my miners for heating during the cold season to offset the cost. This summer's heat was pretty brutal. Awesome stats man thanks for posting that. How much do you have invested into your solar array and what's the lifespan for it? Also for everyone that offset their heat with miners, is there a particular plan you have for that and do you kind of just put a rig in each room lol xD |

I agree with tails  lot of variables that changes every day. Lets hope its gone be something like L3+ in march 2018. Also scrypt has more coins and therefore more price stable. I brought 4 miners and presold 2 for costprice. I gone hold 1 because its my first miner and nice to have for experiance and maybe profit (toff time with 20 eurocent per KWH). And yes, we are somethimes bit rough on Bitmain. Just lets hope they have done thier homework about the quantity of miners. They are no amatuers and also betting bigtime on the crypto currencies. I think the profitmarges on miners are not that big, but its better to expand the market and let your coins grow to  Keep up the good work!! Haha tails never fails! I'm sorry about your electric cost that's just insane, and thanks brother! |

First batch is going to be delivered in October, so it might be next to impossible having one yet.
I find it simply impossible to deal with baikal . . what constantly changing price did they settle on for the miner? remember how many prices the 2000 mh/s giant went through? lol |
