ethOS - Ethereum Mining Platform

[Robertor]

dear friends,

I have problem with update of ethos 1.3.1, I had 1.2.9 ver & after update to 1.3.1 my online panel monitoring of ethOS don't update from my rigs,
after type UPDATE command in ethos show the error as blow:

PHP Warning:  file_get_contents(http://ethosdistro.com/get.php?hostname=.....................  in /opt/ethos/lib/functions.php on line 307

& don't update online panel,
if you know what's problem help me pls.

[Robertor]

What is the best solution to optimise GPU's temperature/fans management?
Currently I am only using

Code:

globalfan 80

in config?
I haven't tried Claymore's settings as I've heart they don't work in Linux - or am I wrong?
ethOS - v1.3.1
Claymore - v11.7

Thanks

That is correct, on ethOS you don't need to touch Claymore settings, you can set it all (including dual mining) in the local.conf/remote.conf.

I see but isn't 80% too high for the fans? Can I make the fans to automatically reach the desired temperature?

Not at all, depending on room temp mine vary between 60% and 90%. If all your cards are as overclocked as you're planning to set them, and your temps are below whatever level you deem "safe" (I go by 55C, as that allows some comfortable room temp variation), feel free to lower it.

use this in your local.conf of rig: -tt 50 -tstart 65 -tstop 85 -ttli 75
ex: flags -tt 50 -tstart 65 -tstop 85 -ttli 75

Are you getting that error on the rig or the web panel?

Hmm. Try sending an email to the gpushack support. The panel is run by them I think.

I thinks ethOS is doing fine.

Is there any possibility to get XMR STAK added to ethos?

Cryptonight algorithms are remaining focused on GPU miners. XMR forking to thwart ASICs and the new cryptonight forks are all great reasons to add XMR Stak to Ethos.  They'll likely be useful for a long time for us GPU miners.

Thanks!

You can try adding it manually. For GPU only for are you hoping or CPU? AFAIK ethOS doesn't officially support cpu mining and the people who have got it working had noticed a drop in gpu hashrate...

XMR Stak supports some of the new forked algos of cryptonight that Claymore and SGMiner don't.

I don't want to manually install on 44 rigs.  That is very time consuming.

Time consuming? You're not using pssh or something similar? If you're running 44 rigs I HIGHLY recommend it.

Good evening everyone ...

i was previously on windows 10 for mining ... but i ran in so much trouble and difficulty and then i bought Ethos.
but i have 3 issue to setup ethos ...

si i have imaged ethos 1.3.1 on a usb3 stick
i'm able to boot on it but now i'm facing few issues ...

1. I have a mixed rig (1R9 280X + 1RX70 + 1RX58 +2x 1050 TI). At the launch of ethos he's able to see all the 5 cards but once i'm on the desktop he see only 3 cards (The 3 AMD).
i think i have read somewhere i have to setup claymore to be able to run the 5 cards

<a href="https://ibb.co/fNKGk8"><img src="https://preview.ibb.co/hnCrJT/ethos1.png" alt="ethos1" border="0"></a>

2. i have updated the local.conf file this way to use claymore but when i try minestart he tell me: invalid miner specified
i also see lot of people talking about a third files (claymore.stub.conf) to configure claymore but unable to find it ...

Code:

globalminer claymore
maxgputemp 85
stratumproxy enabled
proxywallet ethaddress.minername/myemail
dualminer enabled
dualminer-coin dcr
proxypool1 eth-eu1.nanopool.org:9999
proxypool2 eth-eu2.nanopool.org:8888
dualminer-pool dcr-eu.coinmine.pl:2222
dualminer-wallet mydecredaddress
flags --cl-global-work 8192 --farm-recheck 200
poolemail mydecredemail
globalfan 85
claymore=flags -colors 1 -mode 0 -epool eth-eu1.nanopool.org:9999 -ewal ethaddress.minername/myemail -epsw x -dcoin dcr -dpool stratum+tcp://dcr-eu.coinmine.pl:2222 -dwal minername -dpsw x -dcoin dcr

3. i get clock error gpu clock problem. GPU0 and GPU1 are affected how to get ride of this? (as when i was in windows 10 i didn't got this kind of error)

4. how to proceed for my NVDIA cards to be detected?


thank for your help


Best regards
Frederic

1) EthOS can't run a mix of AMD and Nvidia, it only runs one or the other. You will need a second rig for your Nvidia cards, or sell them and buy equivalent AMDs.

EDIT TO ADD: It may be POSSIBLE to run both, but not through the config files and probably not visibly in the control panel. You can try starting a second miner separately in the cli, but I have no idea if that will work. I know that method works for CPU mining, but it does hinder the GPU hashrate slightly.

2) did you set the miner to run on local and not remote? The instrux to do so are on the EthOS mainpage, it's a simple command (I don't remember it offhand, but it's literally just one command in the cli).

3) As for the clock error problems, usually those are due to global settings with mixed cards, but since you don't seem to have any clock settings listed, it's probably because you are including the claymore flags line. You don't need those in EthOS, you already have pool and wallet info for both coins above it; comment that line out and see if that fixes the issue.

4) See 1. It (and the lack of CPU mining, which doesn't bother me) are the only negatives to EthOS I've found in almost a year of use...

Thank you for the reply.

i got them working mixed with claymore (indeed it's not appearing on the desktop. i have to do a show miner in the terminal and then i can see what i'm looking for.

Now i juste a to OC 3 cards (1 is OC in the bios of the card) and everything will be perfect.

Only the HD one is not mining, i moved her to my second computer who's mining burst coin with HDD

THERE ARE NEW MINERS AVAILABLE FOR ETHOS V1.3.1--

You may add them to your ethOS system with a "hotfix" command.  From the ethOS v1.3.1 command line, run "sudo hotfix 1.3.1-newminers".  The following miners will be added to ethOS:

     tdxminer, nevermore, xmr-stak, xlt-stak and the new Ewbf fork

An ethOS system version of v1.3.1 is required.       --scryptr



 

[smilodon]

on xmr-stak where is amd.txt for configs?

[maxmeme]

Please remember to do the following

sudo hotfix 1.3.1-newminers

Then sudo update-miners

It will update all miners to the latest version include those that not originally in the system.

[smilodon]

Each time the XMR-Stak starts, it creates a new AMD. txt file.  Is there any way he can't do that all the time?

[scryptr]

Each time the XMR-Stak starts, it creates a new AMD. txt file.  Is there any way he can't do that all the time?

USE THE "LOCAL.CONF" FILE--

Or, the "remote.conf"  if it is more convenient.  Put your configurations in the "flags" line:

ex.     "flags --currency monero7 --cpu /opt/miners/xmr-stak/cpu.txt"

where "cpu.txt" is the same as it is for a non-ethOS installation.  Pool information is set with the standard ethOS "proxypool" line.

To get command line options for XMR-stak, go to "/opt/miners/xmr-stak", and enter the command "./xmr-stak --help > stak-help.txt".  This will give you a text file with command line options that may be used in the "flags" line of your configuration file.

Just a note, using the CPU for mining may affect the hash rate reports made by ethOS.  Apparently hash rate data is not collected properly by ethOS.  However, the pool will get the hash generated by the CPU.  My rig went from 1270H/s mining XMR with CCminer to 1720H/s mining XMR with XMR-stak, and 90H/s of the new total was from my CPU.  Console reports from XMR-stak using the "show miner" command are correct.        --scryptr

I'm having problems with one of my ethOS rigs.
It is changing password by itself. (I did change the default passwords) I know that I know the password right. Problem is, I have to reinstall ethos every time it does so, in order to get access to it. Its starting to become hilarious. (There are no remote ssh ports open to the internet, so I doubt it was hacked) Plus the hilarious part is, after a hard reboot it works.
Any ideas what might cause password change?

Is it changing it back to "live" or are your passwords just not working? If the latter, try using something SUPER simple and see if it make a difference.

Also if you make a second USB drive of Ethos and leave those passwords as the default, you can still run the miner while you fix the problem.
