Ebang are going to release a 9th miner this month.
I saw them announce on Reddit and have messaged eBang, asked them to join here and post in this thread.
I was going to order some E9's but now I'll wait I think.

You should probably also add blockmaxsize=999000 to bitcoin.conf. [/quote] OK, with the old fork my server was never happy running for 1Mb blocks. Ill adjust this now seeing as everything dare I say seems "more stable" for me at least. With the BGBT Latency down, it might handle it better now. |

My NTP is working any ideas?  Try setting the clock in BIOS and system UTC + 0 I don't like that this is necessary. Flameruk, can you tell me what operating system you were using, what time zone you had your BIOS set to, and what time zone your OS was set to? I think I need to change the code that I use in p2pool's code when determining UTC time, and I'd like to be able to reproduce your issue. Hi Jtoomim. The Bios was almost surely set at current time and GMT 0, London. I generally set this when provisioning a server. I could verify but need to get to my offices as its racked up in the server room. If you really need to know ill down the box tomorrow, get a console on it and find out for you. Its no issue really. Im running Centos 7 without a GUI. I had the timezone as GMT , we are currently in British Summer Time so we ride +1 in front. I used timedatectl and changed the time zone to UTC then the errors went away immediately. Ive also noticed after running for a few hours now :- 1) Without tempting fate, my number of Orphans and Dead Shares is way lower. 2) My DOA is about the same. 3) My traffic rate graph seems to be not so volatile and kind of peaks smoothly and not "spikey" if you get where im coming from. 4) My BGBT Latency is lower and seems smoother. 5) Im now using 1.2M of RAM, where the previous node (other fork) would NEVER use more than 800 Mb. Ive made no changes to Centos or the Hardware. So far so good. Hope the info is useful. Now we just need some blocks. |

https://github.com/jtoomim/p2pool/tree/1mb_hardforked has new code. This should fix the sync issues that people have been having. It also includes a few bootstrap nodes to make it easier for people to connect to the jtoomimnet p2pool. To set up and run my fork, you will need to do the regular steps for installing p2pool, except that instead of getting the regular github.com/p2pool/p2pool repository, you will do: git clone https://github.com/jtoomim/p2pool
cd p2pool
git checkout 1mb_hardforked
If anyone continues to have trouble connecting to jtoomimnet, please let me know. Hi jtoomim. This new code sorted out all my problems! I cloned it this morning, left it running while Ive been out on a job and just now pointed my miners at it. Seems to have resolved all the previous problems I was having. Im getting this now Warning: Previous share's timestamp is 3615 seconds old.

Ive got the jtoomim fork running keeps saying "downloading shares" but it goes no further.
Fell to sleep at the laptop the other night and still the same 7 hours later.
Email your p2pool/data/bitcoin/log file to j at toom dot im. Also, if anyone is having trouble connecting and doesn't mind giving me ssh access, I would like to be able to investigate these issues further. I've heard several reports from other people of having trouble downloading shares, but I've not yet been able to reproduce the issue myself. OK so I went onto the Russian "how to". I cant read a word of Russian but can understand the code. I used this :- git clone -b 1mb_hardforked https://github.com/jtoomim/p2pool.git p2pool And now im working. Must have been trying the Git Clone wrong. Ill let this run, its downloading and processing the share chain and see what happens. |

I'll re git clone it in the morning (UK) and give you ssh access. I've got to finish off some embedded code for a work job tonight as I spent far to much time trying to get the fork working over the weekend. Thanks for this sir. |

Anything around in English? Ive got the jtoomim fork running keeps saying "downloading shares" but it goes no further. Seems to only connect to 2 X other nodes. Fell to sleep at the laptop the other night and still the same 7 hours later. Not sure what im doing wrong here, the main chain is chugging away nicely. When I originally loaded the main chain it says "processing xx shares" etc but dont get that far with the fork. Any ideas, I want in real bad? |

Hi. Ive Git Cloned the jtoomim hardfork and am getting a connection to a couple of peers. It says "downloading shares" but I get no "processing xxxx". Fell to sleep in the end last night and still the same this morning. Any ideas??? 2017-05-06 08:01:18.912855 > Unhandled Error

Also my node reports Version: 15.0-5-g6f55d05-dirty Have I git cloned the wrong version here, Ive looked around some of the hardforked nodes there seem to be many different versions? |

Hi Kavjlaeg Im using your hard fork node at the moment from the UK so I can mine the new chain while I re-configure my node server and do a little maintenance. Working OK from the UK. Theres another guy using my node at ukp2pool.uk which is going to go down for a mod to the hardfork version. Hope you got a backup pool configured ....... |

Hi.
Ive been working away for a week so im missing all the "hard fork" talk on here.
I see the pool hash has dropped and read a thread that the hard fork option now has the greater hash rate.
Is it time for me to jump to the new fork?
Yes im being very lazy not reading back through the post for which I apologize right now.
Im about to head out again for a weekend job away but this is playing on my mind now.

I got round to sorting my ICMP ping today on the firewall but it seems the p2Pool node scanners are not working.
Well at least the 2 I tried.
Anyone check them and see if it's a problem with my PC please?
http://p2pool.co/ Domain Suspension http://poolnode.info/ all blank I've been working on a new scanner for p2pool.org, it's very close to ready. Tomorrow evening or maybe Monday it will be live, heres a preview:  That's looking great be good to see it in action! |

Also, it will make it cheaper to run a p2pool node, and help p2pool scale.
IMHO to help p2pool scale there should be one or several simple but useful HOWTOs on p2pool node deployment, and these HOWTOs should be constantly kept up-to-date by their maintainers. So every newcomer will be able to deploy a p2pool node completely by himself. Just my two cents.  If anyone feels inclined to write such a guide I'd be happy to host it on p2pool.org... I already have a simple Debian based step-by-step that can be included if you want. I use it whenever I do a fresh install for my p2pool node. It includes installing all required packages, compiling bitcoind to include options for --disable-wallet and --without-gui, creating a bootstrap file the official way using linearize, creating a simple script for starting p2pool with options such as a manually specified payout address, and configuring some basic options for bitcoin.conf. Yes agree.
I followed the on line linux guide for Ubuntu and gave up.
Went back to Centos and did it in a few hours via command prompt.
I've used Centos for years and don't get on with Ubuntu.
I would have to re work everything but I thought of writing a bash script to download and do everything.
Load Centos, run the script away you go.
Then some might moan and say it's not trusted etc etc so others would need to verify the script and vouch for it.
Could be a new project to keep me out of trouble?
With regard to OS consideration, I have the following to say: CentOS... Meh, Ubuntu... Yuck, Windows... Crazy, and Debian... Winner!  I started out life on DOS and 3+Share many moons ago and then spent some time with Mac and Windows. We moved all our back office to Linux about 14 years ago and the first server came with Centos. I've never fired a Debian disto up in my life but you know what I might take a look. Just I've learned so much about Centos the last few years sometimes better the devil you know. |

Hi, Im changing my fan to 2,7A, with 6000rpm, after change, the miner both s7/s9 cant detect the fan., red light on after 5 min and machine stop hashing. Anyone have same problem before? please help.
Does your new fan have 3-Wires? Needs to feed a tachometer signal back to the controller card. In times of need I've put a fan on the miner and connected to the power supply direct. Then I've left an old fan plugged on the controller and cable tied it up in the rack. New fan moves air at full power, old fan keeps the controller happy. Apart from that what is the model of the fan you got? Delta do one which is the same as the S9 OEM fan but hard to get here in the UK. |

Any ideas if its rentals that have taken the hash rate up?
Just thinking if rentals, when those rentals end or how long they can keep it up.
It looked to me like it was rentals. The current burst of hashrate started on Mar 29th right after I mined the first block in like 3 weeks. I know there was at least one entity who set up an automatic nicehash p2pool mining scheme with automatic reinvestment of p2pool rewards, and the timing suggests to me that this was something similar. Personally, I'm hoping that my new fork can attract permanent contributors. I think I've been able to fix some of the many bugs and issues with p2pool, and there are lots more optimizations that I've thought of but haven't had time to implement yet. I think we can get p2pool to scale up quite a bit and still give its users better revenue than they would get with most traditional pools. I may have to write some share propagation code specifically with the GFW in mind, though (e.g. UDP, weak shares, bloom filters to replace remember_tx and forget_tx, maybe IBLTs, and share-headers-first mining). Even without those things, revenue will probably be better in China than the main Chinese pools (which all have large fees). But we'll see. Thanks for the reply. Thinking this could be publicp2poolnode who was experimenting with rentals some time ago. Ive been really busy at work for a few weeks and been out in Spain for a week so just catching up. Ive barely been able to keep an eye on my node and miners with limited internet. Ive seen posts about your fork but not got to grips with it yet. Anyway Ive taken a gamble today and thrown 0.6 Ph of rentals onto my node. The node is handling it really well which is good as a test for my node stability. If the run keeps up im hoping to make some kind of gain myself. Given the current hash rate something should happen now varience is a bit lower. Be a winner if we drop a double block again like yesterday but dont want anything to soon. Need those shares up in the chain a bit first. |

Have not seen a block party like this in a few years Things are going great! This kind of hash power should hopefully attract some other permanent miners to join up as well. Any ideas if its rentals that have taken the hash rate up? Just thinking if rentals, when those rentals end or how long they can keep it up. |
