Guys if you don't know anything about cyber security and hacking, don't write this bull***, you make people think wrong way. Money is stolen from stupid ICO people using website phishing tricks (google it if you don't know what phishing is), Ethereum is not hacked and there is no known security issue in its code at the moment, tell me one? Last known DAO hack was fixed, but still it was not direct hack of Ethereum's code, but the DAO itself. So people just should avoid bad ICOs and don't throw their money blindly. Scammers are everywhere, in all systems, especially in successful ones.

Go to "Main" tab, then click "Options", there you will find External Miner, Managed Miners and Managed Hosts too, on the left side, then it's intuitive to achieve what you need.

DHCP is for three types of IP allocation (automatic, dynamic, manual/IP reservation/"static") and not only IP allocation. Dynamic Host Control Protocol is a common protocol to control hosts (servers, computers, mining rigs...) dynamically (with less effort, less downtime) used in all networks worldwide - datacenters, offices, houses, mining farms...

Okay:
1. What you will be doing without DHCP - If you replace it with other model/brand motherboard, you 95% need to reinstall Windows/drivers and change computer name and/or set static IP by hand again in OS.
2. What I will be doing with DHCP - I just bind same IP to the new motherboard MAC (30 sec, easy) and after my rig is started I don't have to change anything else anywhere, ever (until the next MOBO failure), no meter what happens to Windows and drivers, how many times I reinstall them (or just clone OS), or install other OS for mining, like Linux and etc.


Since when that was a problem? BTW grow over 255 devices and I see, you will definitely need to hire someone for managing your rigs even I refuse to handle it alone.


But okay, it's your business, keep changing computer names (especially for 255+ rigs=) and/or setting static IPs in Windows by hand, one by one, it can be okay, I never judged, just advised.
Those smart guys who aren't aware of the protocol yet, but are more serious about this industry, after reading this will probably start introducing DHCP to themselves (really not hard to learn/use) and start using it combined with awesome Awesome Miner and make there lives easier.


You insult me and argue about the subject you don't understand at basic level yourself, I'm a kid... Whatever you say next, no more time wasting, I'm done with you.

No meter. DHCP is a must in farms or you are doing it wrong, unnecessary effort.
You don't have to pay any K and don't have to manage hostnames or change computer names or anything in Windows at all, you just don't understand what DHCP is, google it. If you have some basic IT skills, you may learn and DIY from Youtube. Dynamic IP allocation is for everyday users, not for industrial cases.

When someone with expert skills is trying to help you and give you a "million dollar advice", please don't argue, just take it. And be sure I manage many times more then just 10 rigs and do least effort in the process.

P.S. I am ready to help anyone else in farm automatization, just PM me (no off topics here).

I have further investigated this issue and found an obvious bug:
Claymore's software is listening to port 3333 by default and AM was using the same port for pulling miner info in the previous versions, but now it looks like AM is trying to connect to Claymore through port 4028 and as I remember it is default port of CGminer.
After setting port 4028 to Claymore, everything works as it should!

I hope this information will help you to fix it and them who are using Claymore with Awesome miner.

I agree with some of your ideas, but what's about IP allocation, using computer names in large farms instead of DHCP IP allocation is a fools errand, nobody does that.
I suggest to hire a network administrator if you don't have the right skills for it.

Already tried many times, but no changes. Everything is the same for all servers, not showing hashrate/income, "Interface Offline" and "Mining".
Maybe it is not even trying to pull info from the miner software? Is there an option to disable direct Afterburner control and switch back to using miner software for temperatures like before? I tried to use different versions of Claymore too, no changes.

Yes, AM and Remote Agent versions are the same. I don't see temperatures on the GPU tab, I used "Map to system monitoring" button --> "Display system monitoring data in the GPU tab", but they still don't appear in the GPU tab or status tab.
Status tab says "Interface Offline" and "Mining" and I can use start/stop/reboot/all functions. I am using "Managed Hosts" mode. As I said before this happened just after new update, when both AM and Remote Agents where updated, if only AM is updated and Remote Agent is previous version, it works fine. I guess newer version cannot pull the info from the miner, but I haven't touched mining software at all.

Hi,
previous version was showing GPU temperatures, but as soon as I have updated to the last version, temperatures do not appear in miner list.
I have experimented and new version of AM and previous version of Remote Agent work fine.
I have running MSI Afterburner Service (did not touch security keys and ports, they match), also checked Firewalls, even disabled both sides, but I cannot get GPU temperature info directly on miner list tab, though miner's system tab has all the info.

What am I missing?

It would be a miracle if the price did not drop, right?

Maybe I am speculating, but as long as I know Bitcoin's nature (years of observation), also in regard to the current market tendency, I feel like Bitcoin will recover it's price just within the following week or two max. I'm just trying to tell you, we have no reason to worry about it right now at least, just keep BTC and wait patiently. Don't panic like others, who just destroyed the price instantly, but temporarily by so called "panic selling".

BTC ETF proposal rejection is not end of the world, it's just another lost fight of Crypto World War I against the systems, with some temporary price casualties

10th of March is definitely the expected Bitcoin ETF Approval Date.

Same problem here, it happens after updating AM Remote Agents remotely using AM main software. Please, help!

"Awesome Miner is connecting to the default port for Claymore's miner, and that should be 3333." - Now, I got it, the problem is I am using another port for Claymore and did not realize AM would use default one.
Your post helped me much, thank you!

Thanks for reply.

Actually I can control the "server", Start, Stop, Restart, Reboot Computer and etc, but still getting this "Interface offline" error. I get only console view (successfully refreshing), but nothing else.
Excluded firewalls (totally disabled both sides for a few minutes), but still the same.

Any idea?

It is mining with Claymore, but says Interface offline and I don't get any stats. What is wrong?

It's really interesting what's going on CoinWarz.Com, guys have you any idea?

Thank you very much for the reply, I already read the entire post, very interesting and I recommend it to everyone!

The whole internet is full of thoughts like "Ethereum may dye, because DAO was hacked".

To explain simply, my view of the situation is the following:
When a security or financial system of big banks/organizations is compromised and they are robbed or bankrupted, the main monetary system stays mostly intact or at least alive (with some inflation and less value). Certainly in this case the bank/organization is DAO and the monetary system/currency - Ethereum.
Also we know, Ethereum had no security problems, but the DAO itself.

So guys, how do you think, do I see the whole picture or am I missing something very important in case of the cryptocurrencies that is very different from fiat systems and really meters? Is there a fat chance a fat cryptocurrency like Ethereum may die ever because of the security reasons? Is there a precedent of happening this with any other altcoins?

P.S. I am new to this world and BitcoinTalk, all your knowledge and thoughts, any comment are highly appreciated!
