[OS] nvOC easy-to-use Linux Nvidia Mining

[Lixach]

Hi guys,
I have 2 main problems with my rig which are contain 12x gtx1060. It based on Asus prime z270-p. Bios is the latest version, 4g is enabled.
so, the 1st problem is working of 12 cards. I've try to explain. When I enter 12cards and turn on system, in nvidia driver settings I see only 11 screens
http://imgur.com/a/zGNba. Moreover, when I check each of ones, I see that only 11 cards can manage their seed of fun
http://imgur.com/a/jYU3x, but the 12th one can't do that http://imgur.com/a/3c7f3.
However, when start the miner, the miner is determine 12 card and start to mine, but one card is overheats, because the script can't manage fun speed of this card.

To add to this, I check all problems with hardware: raisers, pci slots, cards - everything is good. When enter whatever card in what ever slot (if it 12th one) - I get the same mistake. When stay only 11card everything is working without any mistakes.

The second problem is linked with "screen" utility. Sometimes is occured such mistake

moreover mining procces is not stopped (watchdog said that everything is ok), cards is really work, however hashrate on pool is 0.

Can someone help to solve problems?

At the top of the mining process there is an lspci and nvidia-smi output; please post what those show.

reinstall whole system. Situation is the same.

Looking for something similar, maybe we can narrow down it to based on algo which is going to be used!?

It should be based on algo or easier to be based on miner,
If algo then we should have an algo section, but since coins has already miner sections
Its much easier to point each miner to an oc setup

What happens when you set manual fan speed ?
Does the 12th one applies the speed ?
Set fan speed to manual 75 and temp limit to 70
See how it goes.
Also try with GPUPowerMizerMode_Adjust="NO"
Or try with Maxximus007_AUTO_TEMPERATURE_CONTROL="NO"

How to upgrade from v0018?
Do we need a full install for upgrade too?
Or just uploading 1 bash, 2unix and ...  will do the job?

Its definitely full install I guess, but fullzero said he will update OP with full instructions, lets wait for them.

[papampi]

Its definitely full install I guess, but fullzero said he will update OP with full instructions, lets wait for them.

If v0019 is Ubuntu 16.04 too , it shouldn't need full install.
Unless it has big changes in distro and softwares.
Hopefully it doesnt need full.

My advice, when u switch version.
Just do a fresh install, remember to save your alias or anything u have tweaked for your usage.
Easy way to do it, have a spare USB card, do your rig one by one
So u just have to stop mining for maybe 1 minute.

Thanks as always
I appreciate a lot your work !
I will try be more active to help habitual user flow with new version release, once again thanks for your hardwork !

I agree, that's the best way going forward so that we don't get any new issues with it!

Thank you very much for your hard work.

Hi, after 60h of stable running the hash drops by 50%, but program dose not restart. Is there or can you add an option in 1bash filr " if hash under x Restart" ?

Tnx

lol ... its linux, not windows to fresh install with every issue or upgrade
If its just a rig is ok, but installing and configuring more is gonna be a headache.

I'm gonna stick to v0018 on my current rigs if it needs full.
V0019 for new ones
Or willing to write an upgrade guide if fullzero provide a complete changelog.

Tnx

Hash drops usually for 2 reasons
1- GPU not fully utilize, which Iamnotajeep watchdog will be aware and restart the miner
2- GPU get hot and Maxximus cant get it to temp limit  with 100% fan and it will lower the power usuage.

Yes but i am using pure P106-100 rig so both of those are disabled.
I would like to know if what i asked can be coded so i dont have to manually restart everytime

So do you know the reason why your hash drops?

Possibility is yes for sure, you need a script to check miner output log and restart miner if needed.
But better first find the problem, and solve it, instead of restarting the problem.

Thanks fullzero for the xmr-nvidia link and the v0019!

For anyone trying to optimize their gpus for xmr with xmr-stak-nvidia here is a useful redit thread with a google doc link where performance tests at various thread settings have been documented:
