I'm wondering how I can setup my rig to mine i.e. GPU1=ETH/SIA GPU2=MUSICOIN/PASCAL is it possible?

[citronick]

ASRock H110 PRO BTC+ and have confirmed that v0017 supports 13x GPUs out the box with no bios changes.[/b] 

As the Biostar 12x GPU mobo uses the same chipset I would expect it to be fully supported as well.

excellent - cant wait to get my 1070s on this board!

Had a rig today at work hard lockup and needed a hard reset. How would I pass the worker email for claymore or eth to get a notification?

Was down for about 8 hours

With the new update that should help any resets, but I totally recommend getting the wemo. I often use it if i can't get into my rig remotely it's excellent for hard resetting plus it also gives you a remote power consumption monitor, smart plugs are pretty great if you get the right one.

Not a bad idea for a remote reset for the power, hummmm. I do like this but I still need a way to be notified when the miner goes down.

I just recalled that when using claymore you can use Ethminer remote manager along with it and just set it up on one of my comptuers to notify me.

Problem solved now. Now I have to look at the Wemo for remote power reset. That is kinda cool for a oh crap situation.

I will release v0018 soon.  Currently you must reimage to upgrade; I will add an updater in a later version.

Hi fullzero, add please to v0018 a monitoring agent for zabbix.
Here https://pastebin.com/raw/pXDwWiS3 is the configuration file zabbix_agentd.conf

I created the necessary metrics for 10 GPUs.
The agent will send the metrics to the server with the IP Address 192.168.10.100
I'll try to add a customization guide.

Briefly: I take the Temrature and the hash from the Claymore
The power consumption of the GPU from the utility nvidia-smi

The result of the metrics is this:
curl -s http://localhost:3333 | sed '/GPU/!d; /Mh/!d;' | awk '{print $13}' | awk 'NR == 1'
curl -s http://localhost:3333 | sed '/Total/!d; /Speed/!d;' | awk '{print $6}' | awk 'NR == 3'
curl -s  http://localhost:3333 | awk '/t=/ {print $12}' | tr -d t=C | awk 'NR == 1'
nvidia-smi | grep % | awk '{print $5}' | tr -d W | awk 'NR==4'

PS: You need to install the latest package zabbix_agentd 3.2.6

wget http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/3.2/ubuntu/pool/main/z/zabbix-release/zabbix-release_3.2-1+xenial_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i zabbix-release_3.2-1+xenial_all.deb

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install zabbix-agent

Thank you, and sorry for my english.

I just found out about Egifter.com.  You can use Bitcoin to buy gift cards to a bunch of places like Amazon, Best Buy, Target...  Its nice to be able to spend Bitcoin easier.  I just bought a Wemo on Amazon like that.  Thanks for the idea.

Yeap it's pretty fantastic, you can also set it up with IFTTT so if you notice the power consumption dropping over several hours, you can set up rules to reset it, its kind of a hardcore solution to a simple problem esp if you use the other software notifiers.

Was already 50% complete with v0018 upload when I saw this.  Can you give me the link to the zabbix source code?

This looks interesting.

I can't get ethermine.org to accept my shares for ETH/ETC, nanopool works ok tho. any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm wondering how I can setup my rig to mine i.e. GPU1=ETH/SIA GPU2=MUSICOIN/PASCAL is it possible?

Technically yes; although this is the hardest to keep stable.  

Each distinct algo on the same rig will exponentially decrease stability.  

Requires extreme care and a specific system to implement well; ie it is not portable: and therefore not implementable for nvOC.

Is this possible to just create a second bash file, set up card indexes by algo-params for each and start them in different screen sessions?

I'd like to try. On windows I did mine different coins with different cards from same rig and that was not a problem.

However; v0018 will support any storage type; USB key, SSD, HDD, m2 SSD ect. So, I would recommend waiting to download v0018 if you don't have your components yet and plan on using a HDD or SSD.

Thanks for v00018!. Could you please add guide for hdd installation.

Zabbix is really nice, perhaps we can find a way to set up profiles depending on the miner used.

Some parts can become a bit more miner agnostic, Temperature can be:

Code:

UserParameter=Temp0, /usr/bin/nvidia-smi -i 0 --query-gpu=temperature.gpu --format=csv,noheader,nounits

For the Watt part you can consider to change to:

Code:

UserParameter=Watt0, /usr/bin/nvidia-smi -i 0 --query-gpu=power.draw --format=csv,noheader,nounits

The pag is already pretty full, but perhaps the fan speed can be of interest (in relation to power draw and temperature):

Code:

UserParameter=Fan0, /usr/bin/nvidia-smi -i 0 --query-gpu=fan.speed --format=csv,noheader,nounits

According to nvidia-smi documentation, setting nvidia-smi -pm 1 will speed up nvidia-smi output.

For EWBF Miner we can use the following, but it needs the (tiny) package jq https://stedolan.github.io/jq/
So first:

Code:

sudo apt install jq

And in the Zabbix config file (I'm running EWBF with --api=0.0.0.0:3333 to keep ports the same as Claymore):

Code:

UserParameter=GPU0, /usr/bin/curl 127.0.0.1:3333 -X '{"id":"0", "method":"getstat"}' | jq -r '.result[0].speed_sps'

The result[ x ] value needs to correspond with the GPU id.

or

thanks for pointing out my dumb mistake, everything works now \0/

Yes, that is the problem, I have ran it later after copying the files, can see it working but crashed whole OS, I might need to use the latest files and give it a try again (now I'm sure it works with the latest fixes).

Also I'm seeing low hashrates sometimes while using 'NICE_ETHASH', dropping to 100 MH and going to 250 MH (saw that on nicehash portal, but on terminal it averages 185 MH always)

My OC settings cc-150 mc-1200 pl-95W (8 GTX 1060 6G on Z270P), does it have something to do with my OC settings? any idea?

Thanks for answering all my silly questions

Nicehash uses the instantaneous hashrate; this will have variance as your rig produces more or less shares per second (ie dropping to 100 MH and going to 250 MH).

Nicehash should probably also include a 6hr average both for hashrate and projected payouts (as now all of these are calculated based on your instantaneous hashrate.

That's what I thought but when my I lowered my OC a little it has improved the share rate (tested it for 10 hours or so), impressive.

Just want to ask your opinion about choosing between 'SALFTER_NICEHASH_PROFIT_SWITCHING' and 'NICE_ETHASH', which one you think and prefer is best to gain more from any rig? (please ignore this question if it sounds silly )

Thanks for the v0018 will do share my hashrate for a day or two.

Dear Community Members :

Can you guys please share your OC settings while using 'SALFTER_NICEHASH_PROFIT_SWITCHING' with your yield per day.

Currently I'm on cc -100, mc - 1000, pl - 95 (180 MH on console), getting BTC 0.0053xxxx per day with my GTX 1060 6G (8 GPU) RIG mining 'NICE_ETHASH'.

I only have one RIG (can't afford another ), not sure I'm getting the best of it or not, would like to get best out of it with your suggestions.

Thanks in advance

Hi fullzero,
 
can u add Zerocoin "ZERO", Nexuscoin "NXS", Spreadcoin "SPR" and finally Dubaicoin "DBIX" ?

Thanks for all your hard work by the way

I haven't used the Salfter nichhash profit switching, does that use the genoil miner ? If so I can give you some of the settings I have for my 1060s.

[OverEasy]

Downloading 18 now but I don't see the link anymore for the onebash file.

Anyone where how to get onebash for version 18? Is it in the zip?

[OverEasy]

Nope not in zip...Guess Fullzero pulled 1_bash v18 for some reason or another..
