upd: Solved!
simple add a pause before service start. For my 8 GPU rig i needed extra 50 sec. delay to properly initialize all GPUs (if you guys have rigs with more cards or general slow system, simple increase delay)
I have added one string in [Service] section in awesome.service file:
[Service]
ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 50
ExecStart=/awesomeminer-remoteagent/AwesomeMiner.RemoteAgent.Linux
Thanks for all detailed feedback and good that you found a workaround. I will look into this scenario to find a better way for Remote Agent to handle it. |

Almost - please change from helper.ExchangeFrom("ETH")to * helper.ExchangeFrom("ETH")The expression field is an operation to perform on the value you read. An expression can be like "* 1.2" to increase a value with 20%. In this case it's an expression to multiply the value with the exchange rate of ETH. The result is that you get the Turtlecoin value expressed in ETH, then multiply it with the ETH exchange rate (relative BTC). The result will be the Turtlecoin exchange rate expressed in BTC. |

hello patrike,
I think it would be great if you could add a feature that will allow us to modify the profit estimate stats from profit switching pools, using a C# script or a custom formula.
then instead of using "current estimate/24hr estimate/24hr actual" for profit switching we could use some complicated formulas to improve the profit estimate accuracy - for example, the profit switcher could use arithmetic mean of current estimate and actual 24hr profit, and so on.
what do you think about this?
also, there's a bug with ProHashing 24hr actual profit stats. the values should be multiplied by 1000 to be correct.
thank you
Good point about the profit switcher. I will consider this request. Thanks for the comment about Prohashing 24h actual as well, I will correct that. |

Hi all,
I've not dual mined eth + whatever for a whole year at least. Has anyone gotten Gminer / NBMiner to dual mine with "Managed Profit Miner" in AM?
I somehow couldn't get it working automatically and wonder if I missed anything.
NbMiner should work with dual mining, but unfortunately I've not yet a chance to enable dual mining for Gminer. Thanks Patrike, have been able to get NBMiner to bench ckb+ethash, with a few issues though. 1. The dual hashrate been recorded by default has been inversed, say, I have 85 MH/s for Eth and 1.2GH/s for Eaglesong, the benchmark will read and record Eaglesong (Dual: 85MH/s)
Ethhash (Dual: 1.2GH/s)
I'm not sure if that's due to NBminer, when dual mining, it uses eaglesong as primary and ethash as secondary and made the metrics mixed up but I do suspect it to be the culprit. 2. The dual hashrate and revenue from Eaglesong does not get taken into consideration in profit switching calculation, somehow even when populated with non "0" benchmarks into keccak, lbry, ckb 's dual mining hashrate in profit profiles, the Profit Switching tab for the miner still only lists 2 2ndary algos in my case: (incl. Blake 2b:....)
(incl. Tensority:....)
and thus, it won't start dual mining ckb+eth as it isn't in the profitability list. I have even just enabled only the eth and ckb pool in the profit profile to confirm the behaviour. Thanks for the details. I did identified a scenario where NbMiner dual mining reported the hashrate incorrectly thanks to the details you provided. I will also investigate the other case. |

is there a problem with mapping cards to hashrate or something like that that no one told until? https://ibb.co/Nn9SkrXthe "Performance" tab dont show the right GPU the same shows in "Map to system monitoring" Try to restart the rig and restart the awesomeminer. I have the same issue before when the hashrate of the other card is in lower GPU and the lower hashrate is in the high-end GPU. I just rebooted the whole rig and restart and it detects my cards properly in the right position. Also, check the mapping try to play on those settings and change the position of other cards. have 20 rigs with 6,8 and 12 cards...dont want to "try" - want to know how to fix this without wasting hours of time btw. restarted rigs and awesome many times since i saw this problem first time - it looks like the problem exist only on AMD rigs Hi, Which mining software is this? What is a bit difficult for Awesome Miner is to figure out the order of the GPU's reported by the mining software. In many cases you need to resolve it manually via the "Map to system monitoring" dialog. Not only to enable the mapping, but also to use this dialog to move the GPU's up or down in the list to match the hashrates reported from the mining software. |

Hi Patrike, I have not written to you for a long time, you are doing a great job as always, I remind you of an old request from me and I propose a new one.
Old request:
Know in statistics the times you make profit change in 24 hours and for each moment. To determine if that percentage of mining of a coin has done it in 1 change or in 30. It would help me to make better decisions
The other request is an improvement on something existing. I mean temperature control, which is going very well but I explain.
I use both methods, both the general by TDP with its two options and also the core reduction. My scheme is as follows
TDP 1 limitation: 72 degrees, you under the TDP
TDP 2 limitation: 74 degrees, even more under the TDP
Temperature limitation in each OC or core, I have it at 76 degrees
What is the problem ?, Well, it works well, but is constantly jumping temperature. I have a card that according to the Algorithm gets very hot and is always dancing the temperature of 72 to 76 degrees. Because what happens that when it falls to 71 or 72 the limitations are removed and reheated, when it is heated, the limitations are activated and the temperature is lowered, but then the limitations are removed and again heated. I think that so much temperature change, TDP and core can be even bad.
The idea or solution I see simple. If a card activates a temperature limit for example TDP 1, this limit remains active until it changes algorithm or currency. This way we avoid getting the cards receiving a constant change of TDP and CORE all the time. It is logical that if it reaches TDP 1 and 2 and the temperature drops, if we remove the limitation it warms up again. That's why I think it's a better idea to keep the limitations until you change your currency. That way the temperature would be more stable, and I wouldn't be hitting jumps all the time between 72 and 76 as is my case, I don't want it to reach 76 every time.
I hope it is understood and that you see it well as an idea, the implementation is very easy, basically because almost everything is done, just keep limitations until currency exchange, with which the temperature will not be jumping, we are not changing TDP and CORE several times per minute to the card
Hi patrike, happy holidays. I would like you to tell me something about the suggestion I made. I think the implementation is very easy, 90% is done. It is only to maintain the limitations if they are reached and even if the temperature drops, keep those limitations. Only if you change currency or make a change would you reset Believe me that I have several cards constantly dancing between 72 and 76 and I do not like anything, and if under the OC it is for the entire Rig, while if a card reaches a limitation, it keeps it, instead of constantly activating and deactivating the limitations and producing a temperature dance. I have already broken one of those cards and I think it's because of the continuous dance, because it always reached the maximum, it went down to 71, it went back up, so 24 hours every day. Too much stress for the card. Thanks for the additional comments. Right now there is a limit of 30 seconds between the Power Limit changes. This will only prevent some of the changes - but I understand your point that it still can be too many. Maybe the change should be like this: - The Power Limit can be decreased no more frequently than 30 seconds after last Power Limit change - The Power Limit can be increased no more frequently than 5 minutes after last Power Limit change. This would make the Power Limit go down as fast as today - but it will not be increased so fast again. It will stay on a lower level for some time before it even attempts to go back. So instead of possibly 120 changes per hours as you could have today, this concept would give about 11-12 changes per hour. This concept would work fine even if you would be mining for a longer period of time - as you don't have to wait for a profit switch. It would also be working for those that doesn't do profit switching and runs the same mining software and pool all the time. Please let me know what you think. Thanks! |

for people with AM licenses, is there a way to access the firmwares without paying dev fees? and how does that work for those that solo mine? is the dev fee 3% of the time? 3% of the hash rate? 3% of payment - when/if they get paid?
For S9, T9+ and L3+ you have the option to either use 2% mining fee or 3% mining fee. For S17/T17 there are only the 3% option. The firmware with 3% mining fee doesn't require any Awesome Miner license. There are no "2%" option available for S17/T17. As this firmware is offered as a partnership with a firmware development team, we are not in control of the mining fees ourselves although we do get a part of the fee. For this reason we will never have the possibility to offer a firmware without the mining fee. Please note that on S17/T17 you can get massive hashrate gains (30-40%) by running this firmware, making it very profitable to run even if there is a mining fee. The mining fee consist of two pools named DevFee that are running mining in parallel. If your displayed hashrate is 50TH/s using a 3% mining fee firmware, 48.5TH/s goes to the pool you have configured to use. What kind of payout you get from your pool (none, low, very high) doesn't matter for the firmware - it's not taking your payout, only redirecting a part of the hashrate somewhere else. Please let me know if you have any more questions on this. Thanks! |

patrike hi. i check something, i install new hive and awesome, overclok work fine,but before 2-3 restarts,attach screenshots https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1LJHDW2HF-vaLNYp6Ztyo_ve6HvhjJNVMcheck "clock fail" screenshot, also there are a couple of errors with actual payot i found oveclock solution just every system start service-stop.sh service-start.sh 2. You can add https://github.com/NoncerPro/Kadena/releases3. I also tried to configure port forwarding for local web server. in external ip. this is possible ? 4. I have a question once once I paid for cloud service. but for control it was absolutely necessary to keep the main pc on, now has something changed? Thanks for the suggestions and feedback. 3) Yes, this is possible but the exact configuration steps required depends on your router. Awesome Miner isn't involved in the port forwarding, but it will work fine as long as it's configured correctly. 4) You always need Awesome Miner running in order to use Cloud Services - both for monitoring and for performing operations. |

4. To your knowledge, do you know that if AM supports profit switching for the BlackMiner Mini(+) series? like if I get a few of them and if I can use the custom defined pool groups on them as I do with Managed Profit Miner GPU rigs? (I know the website states AM do support the F1 but was unsure about the other models).
5. If 4 is doable, another non-essential question would be if there are any method to add them (obviously in reasonable numbers) to AM if I was to host them behind a NAT, currently using NeoRouter for the VPN for remote miners, not sure what's the most efficient and uncomplicated way to add these standalone FPGA/ASIC in similar fashion.
Profit Switching of BlackMiner isn't supported today, but these devices can be monitored by Awesome Miner. I've promised another user (@STSMiner) to look into the profit switching for these miners. It's actually more the BlackMiner that doesn't support the standard pool prioritize commands and this is what the External Profit Switcher requires from an ASIC/FPGA in order to work. Awesome Miner would have to use SSH to reconfigure the pools and algorithms of this miner in order to do profit switching. The typical way to add FPGA/ASIC miners is to use the Network Scan feature (via New Miner button in the toolbar) and scan for Cgminer using an IP address range. With the VPN connection, I assume it's possible for Awesome Miner to access these miners with a unique IP address for each miner? Hi Patrike, Thanks for confirming that you are still looking at this with the Blackminers F1 devices, would be great if this can be done. Thanks for all nice feedback. Yes, Blackminer profit switching will be supported. It requires some design changes and new development in Awesome Miner. |

Hi Patrike,
First of all happy holidays to you and all the Awesomers!
Hi again. Thanks, you too! 1. Is it possible to collect accumulated power usage data in the mining history of the managed (profit) miners? That would be helpful for me to gauge efficiency and negotiate hosting costs with off-site provider, and something like a hashrate graph but in power consumption would be a great bonus so I can visually present the case of no mining, no charge for unused electricity  This isn't supported today, but I see your point that it would make sense to support. 2. Since ZergPool was able to implement several CryptoNight variants into Yiimp mining, I find myself using XMRig at times to be included in profit switching (Btw, using Nvidia, I know, they are crappy for CN but doesn't hurt to have them in profit switcher), is it possible for you to add support for the JSON config section in the Profit Profile's software section like Claymore/SRBMiner, I hope you know what I was referring to, Right Click Miner -> Edit Profit Profile -> Mining Software Priority List -> Select Software in question -> Configure... where you got the override config.txt content if say you select SRBMiner.
3. Can it be corrected that when NanoMiner (mining RandomX) via CPU to show actual CPU power usage rather than the idle GPU stats?
Thanks for the suggestions. I will investigate. 4. To your knowledge, do you know that if AM supports profit switching for the BlackMiner Mini(+) series? like if I get a few of them and if I can use the custom defined pool groups on them as I do with Managed Profit Miner GPU rigs? (I know the website states AM do support the F1 but was unsure about the other models).

Hello, I have been using your product almost from the very beginning.
thank you fo you work
Thanks for the feedback. I will have to investigate some of the point you bring up in more detail, but I will also give a few comments and questions below. In some cases I also think the features you are referring to are working fine in general, but you have found a specific scenario where it doesn't work in your setup. 1 ) madly infuriates 2 things.
first, after reset failed pools, miner starts automatically why?
I can agree that this may not be the preferred behavior. I've changed it now. 3) a lot of problems with statistics
1.1 i can't do overwide coin algorithm, for example I needed override coin algo myriad_argon2d (algo argon2d-dyn) to (algo Argon2d-4096),
change instead muriad_groestl.
I just tested and it works fine for this coin. Please note that you need to specify a "Map from algorithm" for these multi-coin algorithms. If you enter "Argon2d" here, it will work. This is only required for coins with multiple algorithms. 4) why it is not said how to take Coin calculators additianal JSON url. I spent sooo much time....
On the CoinCalculators web site you will find a JSON button/link on each coin page. This is the JSON URL to enter in Awesome Miner. This is required for coins not included in their main listing. Some coins and algorithms requires a specific "Exponential Factor" to be calculated correctly. WhatToMine doesn't provide this information and Awesome Miner assume 32 by default as it works for the majority of coins and algorithms. For a number of algorithms, Awesome Miner do use a different number. For this specific algorithm, Awesome Miner didn't have any knowledge and assumed 32 when it should have been 0. I've added the correct number for this algorithm now. It's also possible to manually configure this Exponential Factor in the Properties dialog of a coin. 7) your faq is very incomplete
The FAQ is intended to answer the most common questions I get. If there are some specific area where you think the FAQ or Documentation should be more details, please let me know. I recently found out that you made the linux version
I was very happy, but not for long, didn’t it be difficult for you to take the guide step by step. with lots of plugins and packages. because I’m a confident Linux user, I spent a lot of time on tuning, and as a result, half of the miners do not work, there is no overclocking only the control of fans and voltage!
What a number of users are doing is to take an existing Linux mining OS like HiveOS and simply install Awesome Miner Remote Agent on top of it. Then you don't have to spend time installing and configuring GPU drivers. This will also ensure that the setup is correct for overclocking and you will find that Core Clock, Memory Clock and so on also are available. It's of course also possible to setup a Linux GPU mining system from scratch, but it may be a bit more time consuming to get everything up and running. 8 )
he most horrible ! Why do we need ACTUAL PAYOUT if it does not work !!!! and do not take into account when switching, if you do not believe me, I can take 20-30 screenshots!
The profit is calculated correctly and taking this setting into consideration as it should. I just verified both with and without Actual Payout enabled. Please let me know if you found out a case where it doesn't work. |

...
After the discussion last time, I did go ahead with a few changes where it was made much easier for a user to select a good configuration. The users are given these four options since several months ago:
- This computer
- This network
- Any computer (less secure)
- Custom IP access rule
By introducing "This computer" and "This network", Awesome Miner made it easier for the users to do the right thing without having to type IP addresses and access rules. Users doesn't have to learn and write the IP access syntax correctly, as Awesome Miner will secure it for you.
I did however not remove the "Any computer" option, but it's clearly stated in the user interface that this option is "less secure".
The changes made was clearly a move in a good direction by making it easier to select a good configuration and warn about the option that isn't secure.
I understand your point about removing this "less secure" option completely from the user interface. It would of course make it even more likely that a user pick a good configuration. I will make this change in the next release - to remove the option "Any computer (less secure)". Thanks!
Much better  I could imagine there is one more to add that would also be needed: Something like "This remote IP" i.e. the internet IP address of the computer running AM, if the miners are off site. There are various ways to look it up. Thanks for the feedback and suggestions! |
