Is the predefined rule "Offline detection" also unable to find this case?

Next time this happens, could you please save the API report for me and I can review this scenario in more detail? You can generate the API report via the toolbar Tools -> API Report. Thanks!

2) I understand your point and I will add a new property for keeping these logs. This will make it possible to go back to older mining software log files and review what happend.

3) Please see "Example: Reboot GPU miner after several mining software crashes":
https://support.awesomeminer.com/a/solutions/articles/35000085907-rules-detect-mining-issues-and-automate-tasks

Thanks for the update. I will take another look at this.

It's basically the difficulty to set only specific properties on this Antminer web page - as the page itself requires you to construct about 15 parameters with correct values and if any value is blank it can affect other parameters. Did you have 1, 2 or 3 default pools defined before you run into this issue?

Thanks for the suggestion - I've noted your request and will explore this.

There are no feature to set the value via API today.

You can set the price via the Rules, where you can use the Action called Set Property. You can for example use the rules to define different electricity prices depending on time or day. Rule actions can also be triggered via the API if needed.

I do understand this doesn't give as much flexibility as having an API method for setting an exact price from an external application. Please let me know if you still prefer the API method and I will look into supporting it when possible. Thanks!

Thanks for the feature suggestion. It's always appreciated with these kind of requests and I do take note of all requests here.

You are correct that this request may not be a quick feature to implement, but it's still interesting. I had a similar request from another user in the past as well. As Awesome Miner can do both clocking and measure power usage, it would be possible to implement a feature that balance the overclocking and power usage to get optimized settings.

The complexity is to handle and recover from crashes if the overclocking is too high, where the computer might have to reboot and the benchmark should continue and adjust the clocking in a smart way.

This feature will probably not be implemented in the near future, but I do like the concept and it's for sure a candidate for future improvements.

Awesome Miner version 6.5.1

 User interface
  - GPU Clocking Profiles can be applied via the context menu in the miner list
  - Display number of selected miners in the Miners tab
  - Display number of selected miners and number of successful and failed operations in the Antminer Control dialog (for operations like Configure API Access and Default Pools)
 Mining software
  - Added NbMiner support on Linux
  - CpuMiner-Opt 3.9.1.1
 Corrections
  - Corrected hashrate unit displayed in the Mining History dialog

I'm not able to reproduce the problem - although I do see that TeamRedMiner terminate very fast, it says "Shutting down" for a very show moment before doing so. Not easy to see that message because the process is so fast.

The fact that TeamRedMiner terminates very fast in your case as welll indicates that it did respond to the friendly Window close message from Awesome Miner. If it didn't respond, the close process would have taken about 5 seconds (configurable) before Awesome Miner took the next action where the process is killed.

To compare with SrbMiner, it says "Releasing GPU resources", but it takes 2 seconds so it's easier to see that message.

Awesome Miner is first sending a friendly request to close the mining window to the mining software - and this is the same for all mining software. You can try the same behavior by closing the mining software with the X-button in the  mining window. When you click X to close the window, it should be the same concept as when Awesome Miner requests to close the mining window. When I try this with TeamRedMiner and SrbMiner, I do get the exact same behavior as when Awesome Miner do it. Could you compare with this as well?

I will soon make a new release where I will include the latest CpuMiner-Opt as well. Thanks!

Update: I noticed v3.9.1.1 was just released as well

Hi,
The dead device detection feature is mainly supported by ASIC miners and only a few GPU mining software can actually report to Awesome Miner if there is a GPU issue. So it's unfortunately not possible for Awesome Miner to automatically figure out which GPU that caused the problem.

For GPU mining you can use triggers like "Device Count" to detect for example if the number of GPU's goes from 6 to 5 all of a sudden.

I fully understand your point about a dark theme for the Windows app as well. I've received a few requests about this so it has not been forgotten and the plan is to make it happen in a not too distant future. It will first of all be the Miners tab, Coins tab and so on that will get a darker theme - not every single dialog you can find in the application.

I also have a number of notes about improved statistics as well, including the points you bring up. Thanks for all feedback!

When I stop TeamRedMiner via Awesome Miner, the console window of TeamRedMiner says "Shutting down..." and then it will exit right away. Don't you get any console message at all?

Awesome Miner do have a behavior to kill the mining process if it didn't resond to the first request to shutdown. Maybe you can increase the time Awesome Miner will wait to see if TeamRedMiner just needed a bit more time to close down in a nice manner? Increase the value of: Options -> Mining Settings -> Wait for process before terminating.

Thanks for describing the case about dev fee as well. Awesome Miner doesn't have any feature today to do this on a mining software basis. Some mining software also have different dev fee depending on algorithm.

Awesome Miner is sending the same close events to all mining software.

Are you running TeamRedMiner as Administrator? That's a scenario where it can be more difficult to get the mining software to terminate in a nice way. I will investigate that a bit more.

Is this miner fee you are referring to a dev fee for mining software/firmware or more of a hosting fee for your miners? I assume it's specific to the miner and not to the pool.
In the Profit Profile Properties, Power and cost section, you can configure additional costs per miner, but it's currently only a fixed fee or additional power usage - not a percentage.

Thanks for all feedback!

It looks like it's removed from CoinCalculators.io main listing due to low volume.
You can manually add it back via the Options dialog, Statistics Provider section, where you can add a CoinCalculators JSON URL:
https://www.coincalculators.io/api.aspx?name=ryo

Thanks for the updated details:
1) I would actually recommend a reboot of this remote computer to begin with. In case there are pending Windows Updates to be installed on next reboot, these can prevent other installers from running correctly.
If this didn't solve the problem, please uninstall Remote Agent manually and then install it again using the links above.

2) Right now the log file will only contain the latest log of the most recently started Claymore process. Once you start the process the next time it will clear the log. This behavior cannot be changed in Awesome Miner right now.

Hi,
1) If the automatic update fail you can try to manually use the link above to upgrade. If it still doesn't work because of the uninstallation process, you can force the uninstallation using this tool from Microsoft:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/17588/fix-problems-that-block-programs-from-being-installed-or-removed

2) If you run Claymore miner with Administrator privileges, Awesome Miner should still be able to show the log on the Console tab. The log file is also written to the file 'console_output.txt' located in the same folder as the Claymore software.

Direct download links if needed:

There are no feature for this today but it's a good point.

Thanks for the nice feedback as well

The most recent development versions of Awesome Miner has some internal changes to how the default pools are set on the Antminer via the web interface. It should also be a bit better at avoiding these kind of side effects. Can you please try if version 6.4.4 works better?
