SSD-USB resize and add swap - Guide - nvOC-v0019-2.0 Community Release.

Open Gparted, root password is miner1, Locate your drive, there are 2 partitions, a 9Mb fat, a 16Gb ext4 and a free unused space at the end.

Right click on the unused space, create new partition, "Partition Type : Swap" make the size you want (1Gb up to Ram size) grab and move it to the end of drive. Apply.

Right clcik on the primary 16gb partition, resize/move, resize it to the desired size (better to give it all). Apply.

Right click on the swap partition and get the info, copy the UUID.

open /etc/fstab with this command

Code:

gksudo gedit /etc/fstab

You will see a line which refers to a swap partition during installation ...

Some thing similar to this :

Code:

#swap was on /dev/sda5 during installation
UUID=cdba7b01-5ae6-4104-9a6e-f723b8bd87ac none            swap    sw              0       0

Change the UUID with the one you copied from newly made swap partition.

Save and close gedit.

Activate swap:

Code:

sudo swapon --all

It will read your fstab and enable the swap partition.

Check it with free command in  terminal

Code:

#free

             total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
             
Mem:        8171388     3020388     2637404      142044     2513596     4647472

Swap:       8123388           0     8123388

Check partition size with

Code:

df -h

reboot

I was wondering if I was suppose to do the same when I'm actually using an HDD. It's not working, I'm not able to update! Can you help me ?

Since today I see gpu utilization of 0 for all gpus although i can see them mining with screen and nvidia-smi. Reboot doesnt help. 0019v2.0

I started using this OS. Thanks to the creators, it's very convenient!

There are several questions:
1. What is the correct order of actions and commands after writing changes to 1bash? What should I enter to restart the miner?
2. How to search for the reasons that he does not see 8 cards from 1 card?
3. Now after an hour of work, the system swears on the dag file of the claymore miner, in Windows I treated it with an increase in the paging file. And what to do here?
4. When I try to log in through the monitor, not ssh, everything stops and hangs and goes into reboot

These are for nvOC 19-2.0
1- restart miner with:

Code:

miner-restart

2- Check risers, cables, .... then in the left menu panel open system log you can also check 5_watchdoglog, 6_autotemplog if needed.
Check

Code:

nvidia-smi

Check your settings with:

Code:

./nvOC report 

Check your gpu with:

Code:

./nvOC gpumap

3- Thats for sure because of that 1 card, fix it and all will be ok for sure, you dont need to add swap or ram for claymore in linux, I run it with 4Gb ram with no problems.

4- Are you connecting with integrated graphic?
That not recognized card could problem too.

Have you made any system changes? like update, upgrade, edit 3main or watchdog or ... ?

You can run update script to replace all with latest ones and get latest miners too.

Code:

cd /home/m1/Downloads
wget -N https://www.dropbox.com/s/cyo86xoqotplges/nvOC-19-2-update
bash /home/m1/Downloads/nvOC-19-2-update

nothing. surprise, after i didn't do anything gpu utilization appears in telegram again

Hi, I am booting from a 60GB USB and OS loads properly, the terminal pops up automatically and then it shows an error of “xOrg Problen Detected” and reboots. It’s been stuck on this and will not get past that error. Does anyone know what this error is and how to fix it?

Hi papampi,

I didn't check forum for long time, so if I want update miners and scripts on nvOC-v0019-2.0 now, I can run only update script? or how?

Do you test CUDA 9 with compiled miners for CUDA9, yet?

Thanks for advice,
Hurvajs

I am running two identical systems but one is very unstable compared to the other.
Same dual MB.
Same dual CPUs with and clock frequency.
Same amount and speed of system memory.
Same MSI GTX 1080 GPU (only one per MB).
Same 1000W PSU.

They were both running very stable on v0019-1.4 and generating close to the same GPU Hash on ZEC, plus Monero on the CPUs.
After running the update script on both to get to v0019-2.0, one system runs unstable and gets:

2018-01-16 01:25:51 PM|gpu_id 0 52 0 the launch timed out and was terminated
2018-01-16 01:25:51 PM|gpu 0 unresponsive - check overclocking
2018-01-16 01:25:51 PM|cudaMemcpy 1 failed

I made no OC changes to the default 1bash values on either system.
What can I easily do to verify ALL settings on the unstable system are identical to the stable one?
Thanks.

You can run

Code:

./nvOC report

On both rigs and compare if everything is same.
Alternatively, you can re-run the update again:

Code:

cd /home/m1/Downloads
wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/cyo86xoqotplges/nvOC-19-2-update
bash /home/m1/Downloads/nvOC-19-2-update

and see if that helps.

Some where you make a mistake, read and go through again.

Maybe I don't undestand where i should load the file ?

I'm just gonna tell you how I did it :

I load the File on gdrive.

Then I run the :

cd /home/m1/Downloads
wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/cyo86xoqotplges/nvOC-19-2-update
bash /home/m1/Downloads/nvOC-19-2-update

Then I change de 1bash file that been load and try to resize

and the error is :

(gedit:3854): Gtk-WARNING **: Calling Inhibit failed: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files

** (gedit:3854): WARNING **: Set document metadata failed: Setting attribute metadata::gedit-spell-enabled not supported

** (gedit:3854): WARNING **: Set document metadata failed: Setting attribute metadata::gedit-encoding not supported

** (gedit:3854): WARNING **: Set document metadata failed: Setting attribute metadata::gedit-position not supported



NEVER MIND

It finally worked. I just forget to turn on the swap on gparted

I had run the report and checked line by line, manually and saw no differences between the two.
I had given a thought to re-running the update script on the unstable system as well.
I'll probably try that next.
Thanks.

In Fact,

what it mean to :

copying the image run the update script to get the latest miners and changes:

Have you disabled the on-board igpu in the bios?

[papampi]

A reminder for those who has multiple rigs and want to check all web info pages in one single page.
nvOC v0019-2.0 in one of your rigs edit and change IP and ports

Code:

sudo nano /var/www/html/multiminerinfo.html 

Sample page :




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 :

Code:

http://<rig_with_multiminer_page_ip>/multiminerinfo.html

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

Code:

http://<external_ip>:<Rig_With_multiminerinfo_Forwarded_Port>/multiminerinfo.html

Hi mate

Yup, just run the update script and it will update all to latest.
Notice, If you made changes to any thing other than 1bash, all will be over written so take a backup of your edited files

Code:

cd /home/m1/Downloads
wget -N https://www.dropbox.com/s/cyo86xoqotplges/nvOC-19-2-update
bash /home/m1/Downloads/nvOC-19-2-update

Tried KlausT ccminer 8.19 pre on cuda 9, it seems a bit better, but needs all miners to be compiled on cuda 9 and cuda 9 install on system, not all miners has cuda 9 support yet.
So we should wait.

Is there some sort of process that runs on nvoc 19 at around 7AM? I've noticed that my rig shits it self on the nose at around 6:50AM - 7AM eastern time everyday.

I'm using claymore mining ETH on ethermine.org.

There are no scheduled jobs or anything like that in nvOC that I am aware of.

What mining pool are you on? It could be the pool maintenance window.
