Another PAtrike suggestion. In the rules, which come by default use several, one that notifies me from time to time is when an RIG reaches a temperature of 80 degrees, although I stop mining to 84.
I do not feel like putting screenshot, but when it warns you it says something like
Rig5 High temperature warning
But, you can not improve that rule to tell me what AL-GO is. Many times I find that message, and I always think, what protocol would it have been? I do not know, or I'm in front of the computer when it gives the fault and know what protocol was undermining or I do not know anything. I only know that it warmed up a bit and it is already there, but I can not correct anything if I do not know that al-go was that temperature.
Thank you
I understand your point and I've received similar feedback in the past. It would be a concept where the trigger could transfer some information to the action, like algorithm, temperature, which device it was and so on.

Just asking I guess awesome miner doesn't Support AMD Radeon VII ?. I don't expect it to be added right now just want to know. it only shows the hash rate no fan speed, temps etc.
I will verify the support within the next few days and get back to you. Thanks patrike if you fixed it, i now see everything with my AMD Radeon VII/Vega rig.!!! Nice that it's working better. Version 6.6 included most of the implementation for Radeon VII, but there are still a few adjustments in the pipeline for the fan speed and native overclocking. The plan is that it will be officially supported in version 6.6.1.

Please do not take long to incorporate the solution please. I've had enough for the last 2 or 3 weeks.
I already found the RESET order, but make sure it also resets the millivolts, and that it is applied BEFORE starting to mine, because as I said, if it crashes, the output OC does not apply.
I personally would add this as something transparent. That is, the user does not have to configure or touch. That by default AM does it before starting to mine. The less the user has to learn, the fewer problems they will ask you.
First the miner reset, a few seconds later, the OC that has been selected for that Al-go is applied. It's something so simple and simple that you should not need a choice. Totally transparent to the user without doing anything, and we removed a lot of problems at once.
Implementing an auto OC reset feature is quite easy so you can expect it soon. I will enable it by default only for new installations. For existing systems you will have to enable it as a global setting in the Options dialog, GPU settings section, once it's available. As it changes the behavior of the OC in Awesome Miner, I cannot introduce this change for everyone as it will be a new behavior. This is the reason why it only can be enabled by default for new installations, while all existings users will have to enable it.

Another failure. If I throw a coin with an OC that has a limitation of millivolts, and this miner crashes, the OC of stopping with the neutral OC does not apply. And therefore the limitation of millivolts of the previous currency remains again. When wanting to start mining again, as you go to another currency that needs more tension, the miner stays in offline miner in the AM interface
I think the most appropriate measure is to apply a neutral OC without limitation in millivolts before mining and before applying the OC that I have chosen. Then it will not matter if it has crashed.
Thanks for sharing your findings. Today Awesome Miner can have a "Stop" profile for the clocking and it's possible to add a "Reset" command here manually if you go to the Options dialog, GPU Clocking Profiles section, add/edit a profile where you can add "Reset". This is supported on both AMD and nVidia and will send a overclocking reset command to the GPU drivers. This will restore all clocking/voltage/fan settings for a GPU to default values. When a miner is either manually stopped or has crashed, Awesome Miner will run the specified "Stop" clocking profile. Although it's possible to have a setup like this - it's a bit time consuming to setup. What I think is the way forward is to have a global setting like "Reset GPU clocking when miner has stopped". If enabled, Awesome Miner could reset the GPU clocking completely via a reset command to the GPU drivers. In your case it would also reset the voltage setting to default. Please let me know if you think a feature like this would make sense to have globally. Thanks!

Hi Patrik & Fellow Awesome Miners, A few ideas (some might not necessarily be practical / useful) - Ability to Bulk Edit Pool Properties - Especially Worker name, Worker password, Wallet Address, Profit Factor field
- Ability to clone Pool Groups
- In conjuction to above, ability to have the Pool Groups the ability to override the fields in point #1 (which can make the first 1 points obsolete and completelly replaced by this one IMHO), This is particularly useful for pools like Zergpool where one want's to switch between coin addresses/payout coin type/coin targeting/solo or shared mode switching
- Ability to fetch Auto-Exchange Status via pool API and consequently include/exclude from a Pool Group (mining a coin when AE is disabled generally means no reward when payout coin needed to be exchanged)
- Ability to parse Online Services' Actual payout % to individual pools according to their algorithm (Yiimp pools somehow seems to have poor luck, or at least I find mining on Zergpool generally have efforts way > 100% across all algos, shared or solo mining
- Ability to detect and compare coin price delta (daily, 7day, 30day ... etc) and set it as a rule trigger, basically interested in the pairs (BTC/USD, XXX/BTC where XXX is an Alt pair of choice) due to the delaying nature of auto-exchange and correlation between major coins espeically BTC leading entire crypto up and down, sometimes this can automate a more optimal exchange option rather than manual (i.e, sometime it's better to mine and AE to BTC, other times it is better perhaps to be paid in say, LTC for example)
Best Regards, Ability to Bulk Edit Miner Properties command line parameters and environment
This can come very handy on a larger GPU farm
Thanks for all good suggestions. It's all noted. Especially bulk operations should be a priority. Cloning of Pool Groups is already supported.

this is crazy. Now the remote fails me the installation in some machines, the other day in one, today in two. And the only way to fix it is to erase everything from awesome miner of REGEDIT, restart and install, otherwise, it will not let me.
Intelibreeze is accumulating errors, the program is becoming increasingly unstable and the proof is that I have never had problems with the updates but if lately.
When you want to realize, there will be many problems to solve.
Much development for Asic but you are leaving aside the windows and the errors that many people are reporting. I am dissatisfied lately of the resolution of failures in Windows and it is affecting me. Even if you lower the OC, or even if you leave it neutral 100 0 0 or 90 0 0, some rigs still remain in offline service or similar problems that did not happen 2 months ago.
Windows advances with its updates and the remote is giving problems, I mean intelinreeze.
In case the MSI-based package upgrade or removal fails, please use this tool from Microsoft to force the removal: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/17588/fix-problems-that-block-programs-from-being-installed-or-removedPlease also note that if there are any pending Windows updates (even small patches) about to be installed - it typically requires a reboot before you can install any software based on the MSI-installer concept. For the other problems you describe it would be good to get some more specific details about when it's failing and what kind of fault isolation and troubleshooting steps you have taken already. General issues about GPU mining can be difficult to resolve when running a more complex setup with multiple mining software, multiple algorithms, multiple clocking settings and a frequent change between all of these. I would suggest trying to find a stable baseline on one of the miners, by making sure it's running 100% stable with a single mining software on a single algorithm. Then you can start to add more algorithm, then more software, then multiple OC profiles and so on to find out when it's breaking. Previously you pointed out that your systems running an older Windows build was running more stable. Is that observation still correct? I've also sent you a PM about a log file.

Hello, I am presenting problems with my Awesome Miner since the last update. In the mining of NBMiner - Miniz to the minutes that is working I get that it is offline. Restarts by rule. But at the time it is lost time between reboots and offline. I already test with other miners and this error does not occur I have 1080ti.
Is the case that the mining software (NBMiner, Miniz) is crashing? No matter which algorithm is being used? Can you capture that with the Diagnostics button? Please note that the first time you run the Diagnostics it will only run the mining software for 30 seconds. You can then click the Advanced button to change it to 2 minutes and run again.
Hi Patrik,
another Problem with the new Version 6.5.8 i have to restart AM every morning because AM allocates all available RAM (over 13 GB - i have it running on a very fast PC with 16 GB Ram) after about 20 hours running. AM is not responding correct - i have to wait about 10 seconds for every click ... after restart everything works fine again (AM needs 2.6 GB RAM) for about a day... then same procedure again...
BR Ralf
Then your AM installation is defect or with your windows is something wrong. I use AM on a windows pc with 4GB Ram and mining with CPU and GPU in backround, no impacts and it runs over month. no - it's not defect... but maybe i have a few more miners than you? in the moment 733?! in former versions of AM i had no problems... Hi Ralf, I've sent you a message about this with some requests for more details. 2.6 GB for 733 miners sounds fine, but 13 GB does not. Let's investigate and resolve this.
And how you checked that your AM Installation is not defect? I think it is a problem with your PC, my Awesomeminer version use only 260mb RAM with 40 Miner and many rules. A other Instance with 20 miner uses only 175mb Ram. So i can´t believe that 700 uses so much. Maybe Patrike can say how much ram AM use per miner.
In general Awesome Miner doesn't consume that much more memory when adding a larger number of miners. Managed Miners will however consume more than External Miners and using features like mining history will increase the memory usage. With 16 GB memory you should be able to run 20,000 ASIC miners.

Hi, How can I update the miners to the latest version in Awesome miner. Usually Awesome miner alarms me that there is an available update, but I can see no update at this moment. Some miners have released updates such as Gminer 1.47, but latest version of Gminer in Awesome miner is 1.45. Please help me
Have you got both check for new options automatically check for development versions ticked under options/general? It's correct that you need to go for the development version in order to get to Gminer 1.47 at the moment. This will however improve now when the feature 'Update mining software definitions' has been made available. This makes it possible to get mining software updates more frequently to all users, no matter if you run the public version or the development version.

like they said, deactivate the windows update and configure for mining. you can't blame AM because of that, they are not windows developer and they are not going to create something to do "auto configure" just with 1 click.
Thanks for your comments. You are correct that Awesome Miner cannot do everything to secure that the mining environment is in good shape - but I'm actually open to suggestions about what Awesome Miner could do better in the future. It may not be a one-click that solves everything, but there might still be something to improve. A feature to deploy some good configuration baseline for Windows could be a good feature to add in the future, where Awesome Miner can help you to disable Windows update, increase virtual memory if too low and so on.

I've heard about the forecasts of the warm weather in south Europe.
I do know that you have lowered your OC already because of the warm weather - can you please see if the people in your Telegram group consider that as well? It's quite often users start to experience GPU mining stability issues more frequently in May-June - I get those reports every year.
Two things you could try in Options dialog, Mining Settings: 1) Enable "Use Ctrl+C" as some mining software behave better with the enabled. 2) Consider increasing "Pause when profit switcher starts mining" and "Wait for process stop before terminating" a bit.
Point one that uses CTROL + C, where I activate that in AM, because I do not understand it in any other way. DOndende have to put it? Please go to the Options dialog, Mining Settings section, where you will find this setting. Have you been able to narrow down the issue with some troubleshooting - for example if you take one of your systems and only run it with one specific mining software and a single algorithm with no customization at all. Do you still get the same stability problems in that case?

Bug - the gpu oc profiles by name , do not differentiate between say a 1660 and a 1660 Ti
Even throug the names are slightly different only the 1660 profile is applied
The name matching is based on partial matching right now. If you define to apply a profile to "1660" it will apply this to a GPU with the name "Geforce GTX 1660" although you didn't have to type the exact name. The drawback is that it would also match "1660 Ti" as you point out, because of the partial matching. There will have to be a new matching rule like "GPU Name (exact)" for this scenario. I will look into that.

Thanks for the details. I was able to reproduce and correct the issue. It was an issue introduced in the latest development release. There will be a new release available soon. Unfortunately this still seems to be an issue in 6.5.7. For this user defined Managed Software you added for CpuMiner - have you configured it to have the compatibility mode "Full" with CpuMinerOpt? I might have identified one more issue specific to the Remote Agent on Linux here, but only related to custom algorithm parameters. Yes, it is configured as Full (Command line and API). Sorry, I probably should have mentioned in my original post, but I saw some similar behavior with the Windows agent in 6.5.6 where it would not use the algorithm argument from the "Default command line argument" column, but would use an argument from the "User defined command line algorithm" column even if it was the same value. I worked around this by simply replicating all the default args as user defined args. But this workaround did not seem to work for the Linux agent. So this may be a combination of multiple issues. I'm happy to provide any additional info you might need to track this down. What I still could reproduce on Linux for 6.5.7 was that the "User defined command line" not being used correctly and I will of course correct that. It should however fallback to use the "Default command line argument" in 6.5.7 (didn't work in 6.5.6). Is it not even doing this fallback when you test it?

Thanks for the feedback.
It's correct that Linux on Remote Agent doesn't include all features and all mining software. For mining software it's about 20 of them supported and the Claymore miners should work fine.
Can you please let me know the main features you are missing? The goal is of course to continue improving Remote Agent on Linux so all feedback is of course welcome. Thanks!
Hi Patrik. Thank you for paying attention to me. I confirm that none of the Caymore`s miners work by default. Only dances with a tambourine forced Dual miner to work and then only when I registered him completely the launch line in the profile. With the rest so far did not suffer.

On most Linux based mining systems, it should work out of the box. There are for example a number of users that run on other mining distributions like HiveOS, but just uses it as a Linux system with pre-installed drivers and everything - then installing Remote Agent on it and only use Awesome Miner. If you installed your own Linux system it might be something missing, so let's figure it out. 1) Could you please send me your Remote Agent log file (toolbar Tools -> Log File -> Remote Agent) for the Linux system where you don't see the power usage. 2) Please also use the Diagnostics button to start the Claymore miner and share the output with me. Thanks!
