UPDATE v1063:
- updated optiminer v1.6.1
- added separate sgminer-gm-nh (nicehash version) 5.5.5-4
Note. To use new optiminer, you need to reload/reboot your rig to start mining on newer version !

I'm getting the same issues as others where a few cards in each 400 series rigs have 300 clocks and don't hash.

Do you use USB sticks?

After many tries I decided  to pcie images not USB sticks

The cheap USBs don't work, many errors mostly IO Linux errors.

Need USB3 type thumbdrives for best results.

6 of my newer rigs Z170s mobo, no SSDs or m2, uses USB3 thumbdrives and runs well.

The other existing 24 rigs - do have SSDs already, I just replaced the Windows with smOS image.

If you have m2 storage, I think its best to use them because cost of small and cheap m2 storage still does its job at wire speed, versus a USB which will need USB3 for speed and decent capacity 16/32GB, which probably is around the price of the m2 storage and USBs if not from reputable brands, have many horror stories usually manufactured in small dark alleys.

What type of 480 and 470 do you have? I can't seem to make simplemining os to detect all of my MSI 480 or 470 4 GB GPUs. Some rigs it will detect 4 out of 7 GPUs (3 would have 300 core or 300 memclock), another rig it will detect all. I am using 16 or 32 GB USB 3.0. Wondering if it is because of low quality MSI GPUs? It does work flawlessly with R9 Furys.

3 of them could crash from the start. Recently I bought some gear and some GPU's are crashing very fast. Almost jump out of window because I have checked everything, all hardware were exchanged, stock bioses won't help etc. I have found that exchanging power connectors (just switching places), help to extent uptime to 6-10 hours which is acceptable for me (miners just restart if it crashes). Anyway did you try to use other linux software (just to make sure it isn't software related issue?).

Its the same hash algho as zec soyou can use optiminer or claymore-zec

Thanks Tytanick!

However......

Gave up..... sgminer-gm v5.5.5-4 still gives me rejects mining on XMR Nicehash.

Settings: -ri 1024 -w 8 -g 1 , and also tried 512 -w 4 -g 2, both giving rejects
Tried HK and USA nodes also getting rejects

Hope you got the right Linux repo at Nicehash git 

Anyone successful in mining sgminer-gm or not GM/ ie. official mining Cryptonight at NICEHASH ?

The other XMR miners WOLF and Claymore also gives the same rejects results..... wtf.

Looks like back to Windows for this client's rig...

I'm getting the same issues as others where a few cards in each 400 series rigs have 300 clocks and don't hash.

What i have noticed is that when you updated to optiminer 1.6.0 i started to have problems with few cards 300mhz clock speed and no hashing. until then all rigs were working without issues, when i restarted my rigs they updated the miner and then i started to have problems. Any chance you can implement a version prior 1.6. so we can test it if that is really an issue? I sitll have one rig which i didnt restart and it is still working. I bet if i restart it i will have the same issue.

now its 1.6.1 still the same issue ?
Can you check bigger console and see if those gpus are even mining ?
I thing they are just hanged ?

Do you have the same issue with claymore zec miner ?
Do you also have the same with claymore eth miner ?

[Jaksa]

I will test everything when i get back home on Wednesday, i din't test it with claymore's miner since i wanted to use optiminer, anyhow i will try that as well, but i am sure it is not hardware related.

Rig is h81 pro btc, 6x xfx rx 470 4gb Black and i am using adata 3.0 32gb USB

Waiting on Tytanik's update to allow Groupings so that we can have different rig mine on different miners.  For now a temporary way to do groupings or for testing is to create a secondary email account so we can test say Claymore Zec miner on Linux vs Optimer.  I'm going to test this later today as it's driving me absolutely nuts why these MSI cards are not playing nice with Optimer.

hello tytanick..
possible to undervolt on ur os?

like use Wattool in windows?

thanks master, amazing os btw

Please mention what GPU Brand.  Seems like reports are Sapphire works good, MSI have issues.  We need to track the vendors that are not working so he can take a look.

[pitboss10]

I have Sapphire RX 480/470 Nitro

I have Sapphire RX 480/470 Nitro

UPDATE - Just tested on 2 rigs that was only hashing with 6 vs 7 GPU on 1 and 4 instead of 6 under Optiminer.  When I switch to Claymore Zec, it works for all GPUs.  However Claymore is slower so we definitely need to get Optiminer to be more compatible.   So doesn't appear to be a USB issue as I tried it using USB 2.0

Hi

I am using a 250gb hard drive...its from a laptop, one I used for testing. I can put a new hard drive in and give it a whirl see if that would make a difference. I think I fixed the core/mem issue ... reading correctly now. I changed the PCIEX16_1 to GEN 2 seems to be working ok.


Update: Tried the upgrade again and it worked only thing it would not reboot....had to hit reset...Everything looks good...

Suggestion :
It could be possible to select miner for each rig individually and not all rig mining the same things
Especially a difference for R and RX OS

That's just a suggestion, because currently the only solution is to have to two different mail address

I think that a rig should only be on 1 coin.

you need 2  rigs

 one for say xmr  with email a
 one for say zec   with email b

Asking him to allow:
 2 of 6 cards on a rig for                xmr
 2 of 6 cards on the same rig  for    eth
along with 2 of 6 cards same rig for zec

makes for a ton of extra work for his servers.

I have 9 rigs total of 37 cards
that would be a ton of combinations for the server.

vs 3 rigs on eth email a
3 rigs on zec email b
3 rigs on xmr email c

that is 3 spots or paths for his server




picture my 10 rigs  with all kinds of separate picks for mining


vs

3 emails 3 rigs all the same

below one email with multiple picks on just a few of the rigs and the pattern is complex
