1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: EWBF's CUDA Zcash miner on: July 08, 2017, 06:00:31 PM
Hello my friends, im new to this EWBF, im trying to make a bat, or testing the ones existing and every time i open some bat, opens a windows very fast and closes. Huh Shocked Huh What is going wrong, i've tried everything Embarrassed, other miners work very well, but im only having issues with this one.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks a lot! Smiley

You can run miner.exe including all parameters in command prompt so you can still see output and error messages

So far so good, just switched some of my cards to ZEC and this was the miner I was advised to use and here I am.
I have several questions I would to get answers to and find solutions.
I'm running  8xGigabyte 1080s on one rig and they are working like a charm, no specific config, nothing, except OC, all cards running about 565-575 Sol/s - mems 120/600. Uptime 16 days.
Second one is with 8x EVGA FTW 1080s, first try was 125/680 which was working fine for more then 12 hours, then I got "Looks like GPU0 are stopped. Restart attempt." after what I lowered the mems on same as Gigabyte 120/600, but I constantly getting the same error.
So the question is next: (I will solve the OC problem with EVGA but if you have any suggestions I'd be glad to hear that) how can I configure the miner that if it stops hashing to restart itself?
With Claymore's miner I'm using script which force stops the terminal itself and launches it again, but in case of Claymore I have a triger to run the bat file to do this (in case anyone interested here's the script)
Code:
@echo off
call :sub >log-%DATE:~-4%-%DATE:~4,2%-%DATE:~7,2%_%time:~0,2%%time:~3,2%%time:~6,2%.txt
exit /b

:sub
echo. #############################################
echo. %time% Check if old miner process exists and kill it
taskkill /f /im EthDcrMiner64.exe
echo. %time% Starting new Miner process one...
start /d "E:\Claymore's Miner" start.bat
echo. %time% Done!
timeout 5 >nul
exit 0
So, is there any solution with EWBF miner to make it more autonomous?

The next and less important for now question is how can I combine different rigs in one monitoring also like in Claymore's monitoring? For ether 100+ rigs are monitored with one monitoring instance and emailing and sms monitoring gives me ability to quickly respond if something happens, how is this possible in EWBF case?


This might help you to restart EWBF miner in case of any error:

Code:
:restart
TIMEOUT 8
miner --server zec-eu1.nanopool.org --port 6666 --user [USER] --pass x --eexit 3 --log 2 --logfile ZCASH.%date:~6,4%%date:~3,2%%date:~0,2%.ewbf.log --pec
goto :restart

I personally use 127.0.0.1:42000 to monitor a rig on localhost and if you add firewall exception in windows plus port forwarding in router and a DDNS service, this could be accessible from everywhere, I also use an uptime monitor service to ping this address for each rig and send me notification for any down time.
Hope that help you. Smiley

Thanks for this tip, what does this command actually do --eexit 3? All others I'm familiar with. And btw are there any live commands in live terminal like s or r in Claymore's miner?
I'm using remote monitoring and it's way nicer and comfortable than any others out there, but so far it has been good only for live preview
--eexit             Exit in case of error. Value 1 exit if miner cannot restart workers.
                    Value 2 if lost connection with the pool. 3 both cases.

--eexit 3 would close miner if couldn't restart miner or lost connection so batch file can start miner again.
Unfortunately EWBF's commands are limited and I don't think there is any runtime command.

I have 5 rigs each one 6 x MSI 1070 Gaming X but one of them give me Thread exited with code: 4 on Zec miner 0.3.4b after a few minutes of mining and won't restart GPUs while other 4 rigs almost have no problems.
Meanwhile I can see a lot of WHEA-Logger warning messages on windows 10 x64 event viewer (Event Id: 17) but no error.

A corrected hardware error has occurred.

Component: PCI Express Root Port
Error Source: Advanced Error Reporting (PCI Express)

Bus:Device:Function: 0x0:0x1B:0x5
Vendor ID:Device ID: 0x8086:0xA2EC
Class Code: 0x30400

Anyone can guide me for these WHEA warnings?
Also is there any reference for exit codes 4 and 30?
