1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: MoreEpochs mod v1.8 [Claymore ETH miner 15] Epochs 385+ work. AMD Polaris works! on: February 27, 2021, 05:01:41 AM
I loaded 1.8 and it's working much better, no longer invalid shares on my 580's. Except for one vega 56 I have. that one still has mostly invalid shares.

And I know you said it's next on your list, but would be great to get straps working again as well. Thanks.

Thank you for the feedback. Please test new version 1.9 with your Vega. I'm starting to investigate issue with straps right now.

Loaded 1.9, can confirm the vega works now. There was another rig with 580's that had been working with 1.8 but kept stopping or seeming like it was having some issue when it would try to to devfee mining, but that seems like it's working better as well in the last day it's been running 1.9 as well. Thanks for getting these running better.

Look forward to the next versions with straps too!

I upgraded to AMD driver 20.7.2 and while I now can get it to run with my RX580's and Vega56, I'm having the exact same problem as batsonxl - if I have straps set to 1 or whichever straps I'd previously used, the whole rig crashes the moment it tries to applies the straps. If I set it to 0, it will start up and run, but probably with around a 35% reduction in hashrate as the straps aren't being applied. Hopefully straps can get working again for AMD's? Thanks

With -straps 0 do you have accepted shares? Do you have shares that didn't pass check on CPU? ("got incorrect share" message in log file)

About crashing with -straps 1. The miner uses heavily protected custom kernel-mode driver to apply straps and it looks like it's not compatible with new amd gpu drivers. I think the only realistic solution for me is to use some 3rd party driver to apply straps instead of default miner's driver. Still this will require a lot of researching and therefore time.



With -straps 0 yes I get accepted shares, but I would say about 1/2 -2/3 are "incorrect share". I've also tried stock clock settings instead of overclock since my OC's were set using the original straps, but even at stock clocks I still get mostly "incorrect shares" so my effective hash is probably 1/3 of what it used to be. Is this something you think you'll be able to get working, or should I look at using a different miner for my AMD's?

As you can see GPU reports 8192 MB of vram, but other api call returned value of 4048 MB which is not enough for 4.03 GB Dag.
The situation probably happens with specific models of GPUs or with certain version of drivers.

Can you check your .log file to see if there is same problem? Also what is your OS (Win7/Win10) and AMD driver version?

I checked my log and it is the exact same. Do you know what driver that person was using? I'm using version 20.4.1 on Win 10. It will likely be another week or two and I should be able to try loading new drivers.

What AMD driver version are people using? I'm using a fairly old one probably because I wanted one that works with OverdriveNTool and had noticed some of the newest ones don't. I'm using version 20.4.1 and with this driver and MoreEpochs v1.2 none of my AMD GPU's are able to create their DAG files.

I was testing with driver version 20.12.1 What AMD GPUs do you have? What kind of error did you get when gpu wasn't able to create DAG?

Rig 1 has a Vega 56, and an RX580; rig 2 has 3x RX580's - all are 8GB. I get the same error on all of them when I try to run version 1.2

Setting DAG epoch #387 for GPU3
Create GPU buffer for GPU3
GPU3 - not enough GPU memory to place DAG, you cannot mine this coin with this GPU
GPU3 - OpenCL error -61 - cannot allocate big buffer for DAG. Check readme.txt for possible solutions.

I'm guessing the driver version is too old and I'll need to go with something slightly newer, but I'm going to wait until I can get onsite to use DDU driver uninstaller and then update.

Anyone have OverdriveNTool running with a newer driver version - if so, which version? Thanks.

Hi Just_a_miner - I know with the HSRMINER that you'd also made it devfee free - is the devfee portion unchanged on this version of claymore, gone, or pointed somewhere else?

Seems to be working fine with my nvidia gpu's after just a few minutes. Similar to others I'd love to run it with AMD gpu's as well. Thanks!

I've got a rig with 18 GPU's total (10 AMD 8GBs and 8 NVIDIA 6GBs) and I'm having a DAG problem.  I have it set to run the AMD in one claymore instance, and the NVIDIA in another, and either can run on it's own just fine, but when I try to run both at once the machine turns off when it's trying to create the DAG files.  With -gser 2 I can see that after all the AMD cards load, 5 of my 8 NVIDIA cards load, but when it gets to trying to do the 6th it dies (no specific card, it seems to load them randomly each time but it's always on whichever card is #6, which is part of why I think it's maxing something out).  I've got a huge page file on a second SSD (tried 250GB on a separate SSD with no luck, then tried loading windows on a single 500GB SSD and using 250GB of it for the page file to see if I'd have better luck with it on a single drive) but it always fails around that 6th drive.  I normally have 4GB of physical ram in my rigs, so I tried 8GB but it's still giving me this problem.

When it gets to the point to "create GPU buffer" is when it usually just completely dies and the machine just turns off, but sometimes it doesn't shut down and will give me a "calc DAG failed" error.

Would love any suggestions on how to prevent this if possible or if there's some limitation with claymore.

I wanted to see if anyone has any good methods they use to notify them when one of their workers on this pool goes down.  Ideally I'd love to be able to setup some sort of an alert whenever one of my workers hasn't submitted any shares for a couple minutes and wanted to see if anyone has setup anything like that on their own or through a third party.  I'm sure I could write a script that just grabs the text from my user page and parses it and looks at the last submitted share field, but thought I'd ask if anyone else had a premade or simpler solution before I try to set something like that up.

I haven't been able to get the PBE one click from jaschaknack's github either, keep getting 404's not found for everything under his user.  Definitely could really use someone to provide a mirror please.
