ethOS - Ethereum Mining Platform

[christiano88]

New version is out - 1.31 from April 4th

Someone checked if voltage can go below 0.9v with this one? I see they improved their voltage control tool.

Is it only for AMD GPUs?

If you mean ethOS, No.
ethOS works well with Nvidia too.

You can do it yourself:


Updating Miners to Latest Versions

Update ethOS.
Make sure your GPUs are not in a crashed state. It is best to proceed immediately after a reboot.
Run: sudo update-miners && sudo service ethos-miner-monitor restart
Search Google for your miner version to get configuration options that can be set in /home/ethos/*.stub.conf files
You can check your current miner versions with cat /var/run/ethos/miner.versions

The following miners are currently available to update:

ccminer 2.2.5-tpruvot-et
claymore 11.4
claymore-xmr 11.2
claymore-zcash 12.6
dstm-zcash 0.6.0.1
ethminer 0.14.0.dev2
optiminer-zcash 2.1.2
sgminer-gm 5.5.5-a
NOTE: If you have many rigs, use the above as a guideline for your own distribution method.
If any problem occurs and you would like to revert, run: ethos-update reupdate

so I have a 16 x 1060 rig and I want to change  to

raven  from zec

can someone show me a local conf file to mine raven?  tia

I will poke around here and come back to this thread
http://ethosdistro.com/

still a fail for me.

I have got it to go to ethos 1.3.1
I have it at 

ccminer 2.2.5-tpruvot-et  ethos 6

my zcash works better with higher hash using dstm 6.01

 but I still get a dead raven setup

this

globalminer ccminer
ccminer=flags -a x16r
stratumproxy enabled
proxywallet RTThoGzWY2G9XryuNV2bgPW9SCspnFAdwj
proxypool1 stratum.threeeyed.info:3333

Yes, you can set voltage to less than 950 mV by setting

Code:

safevolt disabled

within your config file.

Hey guys. I was wondering whether someone can explain to me about the custom panel name. I can't figure it out. How to set it up in a config file and what if someone else has or will take the same custom panel name? Thanks.

after setting  vol RIGID 900 900 xxx parameter pwr parameter did not working. my cards powertune is 5 now. i use pwr RIDIG 2 2 2 with vol parameter. i have no idea about power consumption now.
why pwr params disabled with using vol ?

If you updated to 1.3.1, it should directly report wattage now.

yea i upgrade ethos to 1.3.1 but on ati gpus watt consumption not shown on panel. with nvidia gpus i can see watt consumption per gpu. if i am not wrong, pwr parameter works with 1-7 values on amd gpus as powertune settings.

You're wrong and it also depends on how heavy your VBios is modded.

# KNOWN GOOD SAMPLE AMDGPU (RX 400/500) GLOBAL CONFIG
# ------------------------------------------------------
# globalcore 1180
# globalmem 2000
# ------------------------------------------------------
#
# NOTE:   AS of ethOS 1.3.1, OPTIONAL "pwr"/"globalpowertune" adjusts AMDGPU watts, and OPTIONAL dpm adjusts AMDGPU dpm state.
#       Set lower for lower power usage, set higher if overclocking. Limiting power this way will negatively impact hashrate.
#       It is advised to use voltage adjustment to achieve low power draw while maintaining high hashrate.
#       Default DPM is 5
#       "dpm"/"globaldpm" is DPM state range 0-7 (OPTIONAL). Set lower may lower power usage, set higher if overclocking.
#       "vlt" has a safe voltage range of 950 (low) to stock +150mv.
#       To enable UNSAFE/DANGEROUS voltage adjustments, set "safevolt disabled".

Make sure your upgrade worked and your panel shows 1.3.1 for the rig; mine reports AMD wattage for 6x580...

after using pwr parameter rig was lowered hashes and crashed. i did not find stable config parameters yet. i will re-update my vbioses with new one.

Yeah, I abandoned the globalpowertune setting for now. Still getting 4h/s increase per card and a decent voltage drop since the update just using my previous settings. Will play with them when I have time, but I'm happy enough with my rig at the moment.

Is there a miner in ethos 1.3.1 to mine CN Heavy?

If there isn't, please include it in the next update.

I've tried compile miners on my own and even try sgminer-gm 5.5.6 with no luck.

If any of the miners in their list have updates that support it, try sudo update-miners (or do your specific one). You can also install miners that aren't on their list. It CAN break ethos, fair warning, but it likely won't (still, I tend to do a full drive image backup before I install anything on active rigs).

Hello.  I just updated my rig to 1.3.1 and clicking on the menu shortcuts for ethOS Stats Panel and ethOS Knowledgebase bring up a blank Chromium screen.  After a little bit, an alert pops up that says the page is unresponsive, but that is blacked out as well.  I see no other ways to open Chromium and this bug was not there before the update.  Next steps?

If that was the only rig reporting and it was offline for a little bit, the system probably just changed your panel "name". Confirm the address by typing helpme into your rig.

Thanks for your quick response.  The rig boots and hashes fine. The name is the same.  The problem is that the Chromium browser window is all black and then a Page Unresponsive alert window pops up.  I've rebooted the machine numerous times.  Same problem.  "helpme" works fine as well as the "browser" command, however the Chromium window is blank and unresponsive. I've read this thread and searched the internet and haven't seen any answers.

Test it in another browser? Or email them; the OS isn't technically supported but I've found the panel tends to be (I usually get a response within a day or so).

You can also try testing it in the iOS/android app, or post it here and one of us can try it...

just type in 'browser' in command line to launch Chromium
