[ mining os ] nvoc

[bdog1234]

I don't want any scripts to run which is why I want to remove it.

Then why do you want it?

NVOC essentially is the scripts which are controlled by 1bash. Without them it is just Ubuntu Linux and doesn't mine anything. If that is what you want get Ubuntu.

What you are asking is kind of like saying I want to buy Microsoft office but I don't want it to have word, excel, powerpoint, outlook, or one note. The stuff you are saying you don't want is the core of it.

[bdog1234]

I want to use this OS but not 1bash. Can I delete the config file and configure everything my own way without problem?

No.

Care to elaborate?

It's the main setting for all the scripts running in nvOC, you can't remove it and expect them to run
You don't like it, you should use Ubuntu with no modifications

I don't want any scripts to run which is why I want to remove it.

Thats why I suggest to use standard Ubuntu or any other linux distro
You cant say I dont like windows control panel, can I remove it and make my own control panel?
nvOC is written to run those scripts, it will make so many problems without 1bash

Then how to make 1bash do the minimum it needs to do and nothing more?

It isn't a large file or overly complex. Download it it is free.
1bash is just a text file. read it and set the things you don't want it to do to NO

Installing Ubuntu is a PITA. I want an OS with the driver preinstalled to plug into headless rigs. I wrote my own ansible-playbook for configuration and running miners using systemd.

Hi, someone know how to recover an USB Key or HDD where nvOC was installed ? i can't format it, windows give me and error when i try to format...

thanks!

Disable integrated gpu, plug monitor with hdmi to your gpu, install ubuntu, then install nvidia drivers
Should not be any problems

thanks!

There are many programs for windows to read ext4 linux drives

ext2fsd
DiskInternals Linux Reader
Ext2explore

To fully format from windows you may need to do it from disk management

Guys can you help me please
My rig has been crashed and couldn't reboot itself
this was last message

Code:

     
GPU_COUNT:  13

GPU UTILIZATION:  Unable to determine the device handle for GPU 0000:0B:00.0: GPU is lost. Reboot the system to recover this GPU
Sun Nov 12 12:24:15 EST 2017 - Lost GPU so restarting system. Found GPU's:
Unable to determine the device handle for GPU 0000:0B:00.0: GPU is lost.  Reboot the system to recover this GPU


Sun Nov 12 12:24:15 EST 2017 - reboot in 10 seconds

It has happen few times, since I was away from my rigs
it cost me massive down time
Eventually it was power cycled and manually rebooted


Is it because OC (gtx1080 pl150 cc0 mc600)?
or something else
 

I have the exact same problem with my rig, but it picks a card at random to "lose".  I've replaced all the risers and usb cables and still get the same problem.  I thought it might be power related, but I am only at 550w each on my 2 x 750w power supplies.  I still haven't been able to figure it out.

I have the same problem. In my opinion, the problem is, when a GPU falls of the bus, the watchdog is unable to call nvidia-smi and I have to manually reset my rig.

[papampi]

Please add Bitcoin Gold (BTG) to nvOC. Thank you !

Easy add :

That's my BTG settings:
in 1bash add:

Code:

COIN="BTG"
PAPAMPI_WTM_AUTO_SWITCH="NO"

BTG_WORKER="$WORKERNAME"
BTG_ADDRESS="$SUPRNOVA_NAME"
BTG_POOL="btg.suprnova.cc"
BTG_PORT="8816"

and in 3main add:

Code:

if [ $COIN == "BTG" ]
then

if [ $EWBF_VERSION == "3_3" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/zec/v3_3/miner'
fi

if [ $EWBF_VERSION == "3_4" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/zec/v3_4/miner'
fi

BTGADDR="$BTG_ADDRESS.$BTG_WORKER"

if [ $ZM_or_EWBF == "ZM" ]
then
HCD='/home/m1/zec/zm/5_2/zm_miner'
screen -dmSL miner $HCD --server $BTG_POOL --user $BTGADDR --pass z --port $BTG_PORT;
fi

if [ $ZM_or_EWBF == "EWBF" ]
then
screen -dmSL miner $HCD --eexit 3 --fee $EWBF_PERCENT --pec --server $BTG_POOL --user $BTGADDR --pass z --port $BTG_PORT;
fi

if [ $LOCALorREMOTE == "LOCAL" ]
then
screen -r miner
fi

BITCOIN="theGROUND"

while [ $BITCOIN == "theGROUND" ]
do
sleep 60
done
fi

BTG is not on whattomine. So the switcher will not run.

fredeq in wtm thread said he is working on it to add it to wtm soon.

Mining pools are opening for Bitcoin Gold...
Any plans in near future to add it to wtm calculator?

Yes, will research this coin soon.

Another IAmNotAJeep_and_Maxximus007_WATCHDOG Mod

I had my Verizon FIOS service upgraded the other day and I was unable to shutdown all of my miners before the tech interrupted my internet. This made me scrutinize how the watchdog handles that situation (not very well, IMO) so I made the following modification to just wait on internet service to return rather than just looping, restarting mining, and restarting the host as usual.

Code:

<cut>
      if [ $COUNT -le 0 ]
      then
	# Begin Stubo Mod
	# Wait for Internet
         while ! nc -vzw1 google.com 443; 
         do
	    echo "Internet is down, checking again in 30 seconds..." | tee -a ${LOG_FILE} ${ALERT_LOG_FILE}
            sleep 30
         done
#
#         INTERNET_IS_GO=0
#	  
#         if nc -vzw1 google.com 443;
#         #if nc -vzw1 $POOL 80;
#         then
#            INTERNET_IS_GO=1
#         fi
         echo ""

#         if [[ $RESTART -gt 4 && $INTERNET_IS_GO == 1 ]]
         if [ $RESTART -gt 4 ]
         # End Stubo Mod
         then
            echo "$(date) - Utilization is too low: reviving did not work so restarting system in 10 seconds" | tee -a ${LOG_FILE} ${ALERT_LOG_FILE}

Edit for Stubo

If you just want the info for internal network use internal_rig_ip instead of external ip and no port needed
then open multi miner info by :

If you want the info for external network use
then open multi miner info by :

I felt some thing is not right before when internet was down, but couldn't  figure out why

So isnt this :

Code:

         if [[ $RESTART -gt 4 && $INTERNET_IS_GO == 1 ]]

Should go to restart system only if both arguments are true ?
Restart greater than 4 and internet is go = 1  ?


Edit:
Think I found the problem,
It will wait for internet to comes up then restart system when restart is greater than 4, right?

[Temporel]

I want to use this OS but not 1bash. Can I delete the config file and configure everything my own way without problem?

No.

Care to elaborate?

for some reason, I never managed to have one of the dev tell me how to stop the auto mining so I could manually start mine. There is an obvious need for that that only us seems to notice.

They never made a FAQ either even if people have always the same problems/questions over and over.

Great OS, great devs and for free but I guess it comes with caveats too even nonsense ones.

I mis-spoke when I wrote system restart but it will still be killing the miner and 3main over and over as it loops. If you look at that if statement, it handles the reboot portion only. Once that if ends, the script still has this logic which is executed as a part of the while true do loop:

Code:

<cut>
            sudo reboot
         fi
         
         # If miner runs in screen 'miner' kill the screen to be sure it's gone
         pkill -e miner
         bash '/home/m1/telegram'

		 echo "$(date) - Utilization is too low: restart 3main" | tee -a ${LOG_FILE} ${ALERT_LOG_FILE}
		 echo "TOP PROCESS=$(ps -e --sort=-pcpu | head -n 2|tail -1 |cut -d ':' -f 3 |cut -d ' ' -f 2)" | tee -a ${LOG_FILE} ${ALERT_LOG_FILE}
		 
         # Best to restart oneBash - settings might be adjusted already
         target=$(ps -ef | awk '$NF~"3main" {print $2}')
         kill $target #| tee -a ${LOG_FILE}
<cut>

I cut it at the fi which is the end of the aforementioned if statement that has the reference to internet. If you want to see if for yourself, pull the ethernet cable from your test rig while tailing 7_wdog_alertlog. Or if running headless, pull the cable, wait a few minutes, then reconnect and check the contents of 7_wdog_alertlog to see all of the miner restarts.[/code]

      echo "" #| tee -a ${LOG_FILE}
      bash '/home/m1/telegram'
      sleep 10
      sudo reboot
    fi
<cut>

And can I ask what is this top process for?
its not gonna give miner for sure, I get kworker on top so many times

Code:

		 echo "TOP PROCESS=$(ps -e --sort=-pcpu | head -n 2|tail -1 |cut -d ':' -f 3 |cut -d ' ' -f 2)" | tee -a ${LOG_FILE} ${ALERT_LOG_FILE}

Actually a while back I was thinking that adding an option to auto start miner or not in 1bash would be a good addition, will talk with fullzero about it for sure.

I put it in there so you could find it and ask questions about it. 

It is just additional debugging that I added back when I was trying to figure out the behavior of the watchdog and of nvOC. The watchdog and 3main are by far the most complex parts of nvOC so I find it helpful to add my own debug statements from time to time.

Very nice. I took your concept and used it to produce a multiminer html that displays the api/telemetry pages of all of my miners on one page. The one thing your post leaves out is the url for access which is just http://<rig_with_multiminer_page>/multiminerinfo.html.

Edit: I also added a refresh every 30 seconds (less was too annoying for me). Just add this line after the title line:

Code:

  <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="30">

The api/telemetry pages refresh themselves in near real time so it is nice to keep up with them.

Thank you!
