Hi Fullzero

I want to share with you a GPU failed that the watchdog is not able to detect

I believe this is the exact problem that Maxximus007 recently made a new code block to resolve.

Fullzero,

I'm getting this error as well, and looks like watchdog is not rebooting the system.
I believe I have the latest bash files.
are Maxximus007's changes to resolve this issue in the current bash files?
Thank you.

Sat Jul 29 21:07:09 PDT 2017 - All good! Will check again in 60 seconds

I'm experiencing same issues sometimes, that's how I fixed, I made a python script to check for GPUs failure and reboots if it's not mining with all the GPUs,

nano deepredchecker.py
Paste the following:

#!/bin/python

import os

card_status = os.popen("nvidia-smi").read()

if "reboot" in card_status:
    os.popen("sudo shutdown -r now")
else:
    exit()


Type: chmod a+x deepredchecker.py
Type: crontab -e
Paste: */5 * * * * python /home/m1/deepredchecker.py > /dev/null
 At the bottom and save crontab.

Now, every 5 minutes (you can adjust it) it will check if all of your cards are up and running, in case of problems it will reboot your rig, so far this is making my life easier. Hope it helps you

I'm a linux newbie...

Do you know bash?  I don't

I did some googling and wondered if this modification of Maxximus007 && IAmNotAJeep script would work?

Maxximus007 && IAmNotAJeep....any thoughts?



  if [[ $UTILIZATIONS == *"Reboot"* ]]; then
    let GPU=0
  else
    
    for UTIL in $UTILIZATIONS

      if [ $UTIL -lt $THRESHOLD ]
      then
        echo "$(date) - GPU under threshold found"
        echo ""
        let COUNT=COUNT-1
      fi
      let GPU=GPU+1
    done

Unless you have a static IP address just reboot your router

[IAmNotAJeep]

Sorry if this was already fixed or is a duplicate report. Didn't read the thread for a long time.

I found that my nvOC system boots too long (around 2 minutes). The cause of that is a swap partition in /etc/fstab that does not exist on USB drive (was /dev/sda5 at install time). After commenting it out a 120 seconds swap disk mount wait time has gone.

nice catch!

[ivoldemar]

Let me send you access to the rig. There are 13 cards, test how much it will fit in

UPDATE: 
Bug Fix you did to make P106 run fine, but here in Xorg to add at least coolbits forgot like .... and why then I have only 10 cards there, instead of 13. I tried to edit, all to register. But after the restart, nvoc restored its xorg.

http://Http://prntscr.com/g102c9

I hope that after reading, you will quickly send a fix version.

It looks like you are using integrated graphics in this xorg.conf

Please connect the display to the primary GPU (one in the 16x slot) and reboot.

Close the 1bash process when it starts; before it tries to reboot.

Open the xorg.conf and copy all the contents by copying the text (ctrl + a then ctrl +c) and pasting them in a new file you make on the desktop or home folder.

then

Please post the contents of that file here.  This will help me make an xorg.conf .

Hello!

I connected cards with a monitor in x16.
The system started without error and the miner started.
Copied Xorg, but it's the same as without a card with an active monitor.

I installed your bug fix before that and the system began to start without errors.

Xorg - https://yadi.sk/d/3_2ODI8C3LVbZ8

try this xorg.conf:  https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3ra23kLdr5lM0VkWkZHVTZyVGc/view?usp=sharing


extract it to your home folder then open guake and enter the cmd:

Code:

sudo cp '/home/m1/xorg.conf' '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'

then logout

and log back in

the xorg.conf pcie addressing in the example you listed looks very strange so I'm not sure if this will work.

Let me know.

Hi! Please check your Inbox! I sent you access.

[papampi]

First of all thanks for the awesome system.
It would be nice if you implement "Scott Alfter" mining pool hub switch https://gitlab.com/salfter/mph_switch to 1bash same as his nicehash switch.

Thanks again.
 
 

[BigHashMiner]

i couldnt get nvoc to start mining. i just got errors and it would close the cmd and restart over and over..

am i supposed to install any nvidia drivers? i have 1070 founders edition and gigabyte 1070 g1 cards

[papampi]

In the same vein as the NiceHash profit switcher I released a while back, I now have another switcher available that works with MiningPoolHub:

https://gitlab.com/salfter/mph_switch

Out of the box, it will mine all the algorithms supported by the miners bundled with nvOC.  Instructions are included to add miners for Sia and CryptoNight.  The contents of the config file are a bit different than for the NiceHash switcher, so there's no sharing the two.  Integration with 1bash, if desired, would likely be similar at this point to integrating the NiceHash switcher in its current form.

As for NiceHash vs. MiningPoolHub, that's something I'm figuring out for myself right now. MPH takes 0.9% on all coins mined and imposes a BTC0.0003 miner fee on withdrawals, so by raising the auto-withdraw threshold to BTC0.03 (NiceHash is fixed at BTC0.01), the miner fee ends up being only 1% of the total.  As for which is more productive (read: produces more BTC per week), that's something I hope to get a handle on over the next couple or so weeks.

Amazing Switch, Thanks a lot.
So you wrote how to add new coins and miners,
I wanted to know if its possible to add coins that dont have MPH pool, like LBRY or Decred ?
Is it ok to add them to mph_conf.json with other pools like zpool or suprnova?
can the script get their updated profit ratio ?
Or it works only for coins that have MPH pool?
Another question, when setting up server:port should I set auto switch port or normal port ?
For example, ethereum/ethahsh has a 20535 port and an auto switch 17020 port, which one should be add to mph_conf.json ?

It would be nice if you could give us multi pool / multi coin profitability switch based on http://whattomine.com/coins.json
So it switch to best coin from 1bash coins/pools/miners config file
Users should set their cards/algoritms, cost and ...  in whattomine.com , click the calculate, copy the address link and add a .json to beginning of the long whattomine address
For example 7x1070 with all algo and coins has this link :

Code:

i did a fresh usb img and plugged the usb into the MB and started it up without editing the file and it worked. the terminal started and it began to mine zec coin on whatever the default setting was. i let it run for about 30 seconds then i closed the terminal.

i went into the bash file to do some edits and i heard my gpus fans start to increase in speed, then it got faster. it only does this when its mining. i went over to feel the heat and it was def hot and something was mining. even though i closed the terminal, was this still mining something else? if closing the terminal stopped the miner, why did the gpus get so hot and the fans get faster and faster?

It might've started automatically (guessing WATCHDOG has restarted mining)

You can check whether the GPU's are being used or not by typing

Code:

nvidia-smi

on quake terminal (you can get there by pressing F12).

If the usage (Volatile GPU-Util is more than 90%) is not normal, you can check the process in the bottom of the tables (shows which process ID using it). You can kill it based on ID.

For eg;  3040 is the process using it (with some miner name)

then use

Code:

kill 3040

Then restart the terminal again to start mining based on your edits.

Hope it helps...

[BigHashMiner]

if watchdog started it again automatically wouldnt it pop up a terminal?

i am looking at the watchdog log right now and it is checking every minute and just prints all good. will check again in 60 seconds.

[ijduncan]

i am looking at the watchdog log right now and it is checking every minute and just prints all good. will check again in 60 seconds.

It's mining in the background. Hit F12 to open g terminal. Type screen -r

This will show the mining window.

[damNmad]

i am looking at the watchdog log right now and it is checking every minute and just prints all good. will check again in 60 seconds.

It depends on the coin currently mining, if its using switching (SALFTER_NICEHASH_PROFIT_SWITCHING) then it won't use terminal.

[gs777]

Sorry for probably dummy question but I'll ask anyway
When I change parameters in 1bash like pl,cc or memory clock
how I can restart terminal without rebooting Ubuntu?

You can just restart the terminal by pressing Ctrl+C (select terminal & press Ctrl + C) or you can close and open the terminal.

Hi guys,

I have 2 exactly the same rig, one of them is stable as rock, the other is freezing 0.5 - 2 a day I don't know why. Please help me to find a soultion. I have tried what you wrote before but nothing changed. I set up the reboot script but in this situation it is not working. Thank you in advance!
