ps amd not problem
nvidia problem

I have tested this on 3 different rigs and they all have the same issue.

It appears to be only With claymore miner. I have had phoenix miner pop up when I was benchmarking claymore and I have had excavator pop up when benchmarking claymore.

I always update to the latest, so I am using  4.6.6

I believe this started happening with version 4.6.5

All mining rigs are local.


EDIT: I have now completely uninstalled AwesomeMiner and cleared the registry of any mention of it.... then reinstalled the software from scratch and I am still having this issue on 3 different rigs. The only changes I make are adding my payment addresses, adding excavator, and checking all nvidia miners to make sure I have as many usable miners as possible.... Then I start benchmarking and I immediately have this problem. Also, not all miners work on the algos that they are supposed to work for.... ccminer_alexis and ccminer_klaust work for about half of the algos they are supposed to work for.

EDIT 2: Ok this makes things even weirder... Benchmarking opens up Phoenix miner or Excavator for every algo that Claymore shows as a possible miner for.... EXCEPT Ethereum, only Ethereum actually opens Claymore.

Hello. I just had an Antminer S9 delivered, I hooked it up, mining on Slushpool, then followed the directions for API access, and that all went smooth. The only thing I'm having an issue with is "Define coin" I can select it and a drop down comes up and it says "User defined" and "Unspecified", but it won't let me choose either. I hover over user defined and left click, but nothing happens. Thanks for any insight anyone might have.

Patrike,

How about this, is there an extension to the API such that I could externally parse the cgiminer log and push data to AM that could be displayed in the GPU/ASCI/etc area as individual miners?  I'd be up for that if that's an easier approach - perhaps there are other benefits as well, dunno.  I'd forgo the ability to set triggers, etc as long as I could see the data in one place.

hi Patrick

This is really brilliant and is already giving some interesting information, are there any plans to collect statistics for NiceHash and MiningPoolhub?

Thanks

In the benchmarking screen it shows Claymore Dual miner.... but instead of opening Claymore it is opening Phoenix miner, why?

I do not have anything changed with Claymore or Phoenix, the miner is doing this all on it's own.

It really is starting to feel like every time you update AwesomeMiner you add new features and break something else.


Edit: Even when I point Claymore to the actual EthDcrMiner64.exe AwesomeMiner STILL opens Phoenix miner!!!! How is that even possible? It's like AwesomeMiner is literally fighting me...

awesome!

Looks like GPU order is broken in latest version, at least in 4.6.3. I have 3 1080 cards + 1 is 1080 Ti. When i go to benchmark window, i see all 4 cards GPU0-GPU3 and GPU2 is 1080 Ti. When i run benchmark for GPU0 using AM benchmark window, i see that miner is reporting GPU as 1080 Ti, but i'm benchmarking GPU0, not GPU2! Did not had this happen before.

Why was Sumokoin removed from AM?  Because of the upcoming fork?  Will it be added back in afterward?

Patrike,

I'm going to take a run up this hill one more time.

I would be so awesome if AM could just display all the Canaan avalon miners like it does GPU's on a single rig.

There are 2 currently can be up to 20 on that ASIC rig, all of the data is in the cgminer log/api as well as AM api (in the stats section), the MMCount is the number of miners in the rig, and the MM  IDX is the specifics for each miner, the TEMP[], TMax[], Fan[], GHSmm[] WU[] numbers are for a specific miner.

I'd even be up for trying this via an alternative way if that exists?  C# script maybe?

fingers crossed you'll consider the request.

Thanks in advance, and happy to help with data/testing etc.

Thx for the reply Patrike, I tried the profitPerDayValue, but it only displays the profit value that the miner is currently actively running. The idea would be that I can set Rule Based actions on what's being calculated (updated) before the switching interval kicks in. Both Globally (on all miners) and Individual Miner. I have done the global workaround via Excel and it's working great (albeit extremely amateurish in the implementation)

Example would be...that:

The Global Switching Override looks at Total Profit Per Day by all miners and switch away when it hits a user defined threshold to counter a temporary algo profit spike (usually sharp drop in difficulty using "current" statistic) affecting most of the miners in AM for that period of time.

An Individual Switching Override Rule looks at the profit calculated by the "Profit Switching" Tab in "View Details...", that if none of the available algos/pools meets a certain profit threshold defined by user (say if I want this rig to earn at least $2.00 / day) after profit calculation cycle, I can tell the miner to Stop but keep monitoring and start it again when there are algos/pools that have meet the threshold I defined. Also, sometimes individual miners are mining at a loss or not optimal (HW difference between rigs, susceptible to small scale individual spike since mining different algo than powerful rigs), this rule allows it not just to stop, but look at the overall profit rank for this particular profit profile and adjust accordingly. Example, my NVidia rigs might be mining profitably after global profit switch, and the few AMD ones suddenly decided to mine Neoscrypt (due to profit/difficulty fluctuation), 5 minutes later, all NV rigs are happily pulling in profit while the Neoscrypt coins went down drastically but it is still profitable to mine Ethash with the AMD at profit, but there's still 10 minutes left for my say...15min switching cycle, so now I want AM to only switch those AMD rigs which are making loss to another algo that's still making profit above threshold I specified. As I understand, I can still do an overall switching and the rigs that are already mining the most profitable in the switching time interval won't be affected and stay mining away. However, right now, I can't just keep switching say, having a bad day, and certain cards that I have completely stopped making profit altogether (my poor NV 1050 and R7 370 say...affected most directly with most pronounced effect followed by other less power efficient AMD cards with limited choice of profitable algos)....that's why I think it's necessary to have the switching rule look at the entire profit profile's profit + what it is currently pulling in before making a call to "switch" or "pause".

Hope it illustrates what I was trying to get at and not confuses you instead,

Cheers,

1.  I currently have the professional edition of AM which allows 10 mining processes to be monitored.  I have a couple of rigs and I initially created a new managed miner for each different coin/algo that I wanted to mine which allowed me to easily switch from one to the other.  I soon discovered that each of these were considered a monitored mining process.  So even though I only have 3 rigs, AM says I have 10 monitored mining processes.  I soon discovered that templates are what I should be using... no problem, I switched over to templates but unfortunately you cannot create a "Profit Switching" template to use on your Managed Miner.  I have 3 rigs but AM counts 6 against my quota of 10 (1 Managed Miner with various templates and 1 Profit Miner for each rig).

Am I setting this up incorrectly?  Is there a better way to do this to not have it count against my quota of 10? I am only running 3 mining processes.

2.  This next one is cosmetic only but I noticed when using templates the main display on the miner tab shows Description, IP/Host, Pool Name for my Managed Miner.  When I am running this miner everything is fine as the coin or algo displays on the right side with profit info and I know which template was applied, but when the miner is idle there is no way to tell which template I have applied.  If the coin or algo was appended to the pool name (under the IP/Host) then that would tell me which template I have applied.  I believe in most all other cases I see the the coin/algo appended to the pool name but not in this instance.

I hope this all makes sense!  And thanks in advance!

Please correct the order of displaying video cards.....

Have some trouble upgrading 2 of my miners with any version of awesome miner.
I have deleted everything and it doesn't work.
I've also selected the requested .msi and it still doesn't work.
I do not want to reinstall windows for this stupid agent error.
This is the error:

Bug v4.6.5 (perhaps in the previous 2 releases ase well
=====

Most of the remote miners will show interface offline error (some green text, some with red text) when you have option window/profile editor opened for a little while (leave it for 3 minutes and it surely kicks in)

The miners are actually still online and API are accessible and so on, just AM not seem to probe, reading them properly while the Options Window is opened so might be an issue with Remote Agent in the latest builds

Claymore's CryptoNote Windows CPU Miner v4.0   on: Today at 10:44:14 AM
4.0

- removed devfee, miner is completely free now.
- added "-pow7" option to support Monero hardfork, use "-pow7 1" value to enable it.

I need help I installed AM to one of my rig but it sometimes restarts and AM starts too but it doesn't start miner.Is there a way to make it auto start miner after restart?

I've sent Patrike similar feedback a while back, this certainly will be a very welcomed feature addition for people who are more sensitive to the electricity cost factor. Of course, if it cannot be implemented in the near future, maybe we can have some sort of workaround that allows users to do so via API.

it will be (if easier to implement) great to have API method returning the Profit Switching tab data as per "View Details..." window. As far as I understand, these information are probably stored in the AM.xml and either you can generate API report manually or extract the portion from the XML. If that's the case, we can currently do a complicate workaround to get the data and implement our own profit switching rule but it's rather inefficient as the needless double calculation from some data AM already have stored somewhere...doing data modelling matching keys ... etc and finally to just set a rule.

Another Way if not via HTTP API, is to have a new Rule script user can run, that allows the action "Generate API Report" to be performed and store the API report in Filename of your choice (I think API report generated are for individual miner ATM) That way there are probably less effort extracting data on each miner from the main config XML and perhaps less complicated?

Hello Patrick,

I've been using AM for several months and have been loving it. Even though I am really enjoying using it there are a couple of thoughts that you might be able to assist with:

1: In Profit Profile - Customize (where all the algos are listed) can a select/un-select all button be added? When i'm testing overclocking and command line parameters for one algo its a pain to manually one by one select and un-select all but one.

2. There was a suggestion earlier in the thread related to the new fastest miner per algo benchmarking feature where it was suggested that there is a "column in which we can click (select) the miner we use as default for each algorithm once the benchmarks have been made"
Currently the UI around doing this within Options - Managed Software isn't ideal so creating this change will vastly improve the ease in setting the default miner for a selected algo per profit profile (I personally get quite confused in the Options - Managed Software - Defaults part of AM).

3: Given that mining has been less profitable of late with the drop on value of Crypto would it be possible to add the ability per profit profile or miner where if the profit per day for my miner/profit profile is less than X amount AM will tell the miner to stop mining (PC on but idle), then when the profit per day is above X amount to resume mining again? This way we can get the best "profit" between mining and electrical cost savings.

Thanks for taking your time to read this, I have spent alot of time optimizing my miners with custom settings per algo per miner with the relevant power information to get very accurate profit information and the feedback comes after days of playing around with this :>
