ethOS - Ethereum Mining Platform

[kjs]

What is the command "ethos-overclock"?

And don't you need to run "putconf" between the echo and the minestart to force it to use the new conf?  or is that done automatically when you run minestart?

Personally, I run these commands in a bash script rather than all at once. That also allows me to add "pauses" like "sleep 5" to pause the script for 5 seconds between commands.

(man I wish ethos documentation went into more detail.)

"ethos-overclock" is the command used to apply any core, memory and power settings that you have specified within your configuration.  EthOS runs this automatically upon boot, however if you modify your config after boot and wish to have those updated settings applied this is the command that you need to run.

WRT "putconf", this simply fetches any remote configuration file from the URL that you have defined within /home/ethos/remote.conf to /home/ethos/local.conf - you don't need to run "putconf" if you have simply modified local.conf, or replaced it by copying another file to its location.

As for running the commands all at once, running them with ampersands between the commands from cron is fine, the commands after the ampersands will only run if the command proceeding it succeeded, so there is no problem there.

i am usually using reboot command for changes. boot time is fast and its quaranted way to apply modifications.
and i also use update command for instant updating webgui

How do I calculate the globalmem for NVIDIA cards? In Windows I simply used +750 in Afterburner. After that I switched to nvOC and there I doubled the numbers to +1500 because of Linux.

Now I am testing ethOS and it looks like this is again a different system.

For now I use globalcore 1300 and globalmem 4700 on my GTX 1060 but it will be nice if I can calculate the right amount to get a stable rig.

Nowadays is still profitable to mine ethereum? If not what do you think would be a good choice?

And if someone can share with me some links with mining machines and prices it would be great!

Personally I set GPU clocks on a per rig basis.  Those values appear about right for a 1060 however.

I would also set the power limit for the GPU to 80W and remove the globalcore value (the NVIDIA cards will simply then run the core clocks to fit within the power budget).

Interessting. I'll check it.
It's the same for the mem clock?

I already knew my settings from former Windows rigs. So what I did now is booting with an old Windows 10 installation and looked in Afterburner for the values. I thought maybe there is an easier solution to find that.

I ended up with globalmem 4551 and globalpowertune 78 (65% of TDP 120W) and that gave me the right hashrate and stability that I was looking for

anybody have linux compiled Genoil ethminer?

Good afternoon, thanks for your attention: D

I leave here the data of antpool, and as I have placed them, but there is no way to get me in antpool of ETH.

MY Worker

Sub acount :bro
Worker name:rig1

My wallet: 0x7fe8fb7904a56011c335d52ff2bc96404963646a


File config:

maxgputemp 85
stratumproxy enabled
proxywallet 0x7fe8fb7904a56011c335d52ff2bc96404963646a
proxypool1 stratum-eth.antpool.com:8008
proxypool2 stratum-eth.antpool.com:443
worker bro.rig1

flags --cl-global-work 8192 --farm-recheck 200
globalfan 85

Can someone tell me how to set up pool in Ethos Antpool ETH?

My intention is to mine in antpool in ETH, I do not know how to configure the file for which functions.

The parameters of ANTPOOL are:

Pool: pool-stratum-eth.antpool.com:8008
User Worker: rsy.rig2
Pasword: x
Wallet: 0x7fe8fb7904a56011c335d52ff2bc96404963646a

here are as they come by default in ethos:

maxgputemp 85
stratumproxy enabled
proxywallet 0x0bdC4F12fB57d3acA9C3cF72B7AA2789A20d27f2
proxypool1 pool-usa.ethosdistro.com:5001
proxypool2 pool-eu.ethosdistro.com:5001
flags --cl-global-work 8192 --farm-recheck 200
globalfan 85


Thanks.

could you share antpool's miner config file?
your hashes depends on username or wallet address?

You want to set the memory clocks specifically when mining ETH as that is the major determining factor in generating the hash rate.

Is there a way to set the core clock in nvidia-smi? I now use globalcore 1556 in local.conf but it's doing nothing with my MSI GeForce GTX Gaming 1060 X 3G cards.

I like ethOS very much, but unfortunately the power usage of my ethOS rigs is 75 watt higher compared to my similar nvOC rigs.
I tried do to some changes in custom.sh but it's still not working. The core clock stays about 1750 MHz which results in this higher usage.

Code:

nvidia-settings -c :0 -a '[gpu:0]/GPUMemoryTransferRateOffset[3]=1500'
nvidia-settings -c :0 -a '[gpu:0]/GPUGraphicsClockOffset[3]=-800'

Why is this code not working? Do I need to change more?

[EDIT] I think I fixed this problem for the biggest part by myself. The globalpowertune was set to 72 because of the 60% of TDP 120W. But it seems like the MSI GeForce GTX Gaming 1060 X 3G has a minimum of 100W. So now I use globalpowertune 100 and the power usage from the wall is about 690W at this moment.

Still not perfect but acceptable. I'd like to experiment a little more with the core clock to get this at 675W. In nvOS I'm able to set the core with nvidia-smi to -800 but in ethOS it's only working till -200 Is there a way to overrule this setting?

in my opinion using global commands not usefull. i only set globalfanspeed and maxgputemp for all rigs
maxgputemp 75
globalfan 80
settings fine for all my rigs.
all of other settings as core mem clock settings optimised rig by rig

I don't have the time to optimize all cards individual. So I choose for stable settings that will work on every card with Samsung memory.

But my problem has nothing to do with the global commands. I think it has something to do with nvidia-smi but didn't found the solution yet.

I'm thinking of switching back to nvOC because that gives me a better hashrate and lower power usage But now I just bought ethOS and I like the panel they use. So maybe it will be better to continue using ethOS and hopefully I will found a solution to get the same results as nvOC.

I would like to know if anybody is mining with GPU from Pradeon (http://www.pradeon.com/ both AMD and Nvidia GPU) or Manli (http://www.manli.com/en/products/Mining_Series/Mining_Cards/products/111) on  EthOS ? If yes are these GPU stable with these OS or is it more stable on Win10 pro ?

Thanks for your feedbacks !

[Vann]

BBT did a review on the Manli nVidia P106-090 3GB mining cards. In the live stream he did, he could only get the cards working with the Windows driver and overclocking tool downloaded from Manli website.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzuSwO6I_oA&feature=youtu.be&t=61

None of the Linux based OS detected the cards. Including ethOS, smOS and PIMP.

Thanks a lot the link ! I always check their livestream but missed this video of BBT.

Does anybody have used ethOS? Is it good ?

Yes, I do. It's good.

Hello guys stopped running the miner (sgminer) writes "to many autoreboots" in  local.conf the auto-reload is not registered, how am I supposed to win?

[Lyd]

is ethos limited to 16 gpu?
