[ANN] dstm's ZCash / Equihash Nvidia Miner v0.6.2 (Linux / Windows)

[Atronoss]

V0.5.8 windows 10 with 6X1080
when I run a fews hours，always auto quit cmd，and then do nothing，It waste a lot of time until I know it.
how can I fix it？PLS help！

You can add "pause" at the end of batch file to prevent cmd windows closing to see if there is some error message, then resolve error (preferable solution)...

...or you can simply call again and again the batch file in cycle with for example (but you wont get info about error):

Code:

:mine
timeout 60
cd dstm
zm --server ssl://eu1-zcash.flypool.org --port 3443 --user t1N1eJnRtQuyai6ewvQsaJe3ACWAvHykqhu.70001 --time
cd..
echo DSTM MINER RESTARTED AT %TIME% %DATE% >> dstm_log.txt
goto mine

(in this case batch file is one level above, and zm miner is in folder dstm)

periodically i get such message in log

gpus getting cold for some minutes, then the process starts again until next reconnect.
is this a bad thing? never got share zero-drop with ewbf.

I have this exact same issue, every 3hrs my rigs get disconnected and reconnect for 5min before they start mining again. Internet is not the problem btw and the rigs dont have anti-virus or firewalls up.

Hy there, new to this mining thing. Playing with my gaming pc and w8ing for my first rig. This is what i get with GTX960 4GB:
https://i.imgur.com/4auVx62.jpg
What do you think, can i get better?
In pool i get ±170 avg. and power consumption from wall ~130w
Working for 12h+ now, no crashes or any turn off's

how to mine with ZM using only xyz GPU card?

If u have 5 GUPS and only want to use GPU 1-3

what is the syntax / command for this , please?

for select what gpu you want to use > --dev number < is what you need to add in command line, if you was read README.txt is there
- first run zm --list-devices to see how gpu are listed then
- aka if you want to use gpu 1 2 3 then: --dev 0 1 2 you need to use or a combo like that see first step

cheers

Dear dstm,

When you write in your Change log:
"con: add support for protocol v.01000020"

What does the "con" mean ?
Do you use any other mysterious abbreviations ?

Also what protocol  v01000020 are you referring to?

Howsit, thanks for your reply it was meaninful and helpful.
I missed the " --dev            Space separated list of cuda devices" in the readme.txt

Thanks.

any monitoring http protocol or soft for this?
I'm struggling with ewbf + it has no more updates, would like to switch to another one with centralized monitoring

[Biggen1]

any monitoring http protocol or soft for this?
I'm struggling with ewbf + it has no more updates, would like to switch to another one with centralized monitoring

Code:

--telemetry      [=ip:port]. Starts telemetry server. Telemetry data
                     can be accessed using a web browser(http) or by json-rpc.
                     If no arguments are given the server listens on
                     127.0.0.1:2222 - Example: --telemetry=0.0.0.0:2222
                     Valid port range [1025-65535]

see README.txt file & you want to switch from EWBF because gain more speed & more hpower to try use this:

Code:

    --telemetry      [=ip:port]. Starts telemetry server. Telemetry data
                     can be accessed using a web browser(http) or by json-rpc.
                     If no arguments are given the server listens on
                     127.0.0.1:2222 - Example: --telemetry=0.0.0.0:2222
                     Valid port range [1025-65535]

there are other option to combine with this miner app but way not keep thing simple

cheers

the same issue, I get disconnected every 5 minutes with eu-ru01.miningrigrentals.com
but without disconnections to zec-eu1.nanopool.org
it is a pity, can't use with so many disconnections
Can it be an issue with low capacity of RAM? I have only 2gb Ram on my PC. Lan network.

I have the same problem on v0.5.8. Miner works for a day, and suddenly goes "zm.exe is not responding". At this point I must manually restart the Miner. This never happend to me on v0.5.7.

I've noticed that when too many recons happen then my mining client crashes. right now ive been mining 18hrs with only one reconnection and the rigs are running flawlessly. It's obviously an issue with maintaining a connection to the mining pool. Hopefully that gets sorted out soon enough. I've had this issue on 0.5.7 and 0.5.8 so rolling back to the previous version makes no difference. Right now I'll work on integrating this free open source watchdog script (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2071108.0) that will reboot the mining client on crash and reboot my rigs on regular intervals just to manage the issue until the pool and client are working well together again.

Hi,
Is there a way to get the device name from API? I can see the device name while accessing the miner with a web browser, but it is not included if I perform a API call.

Thank you.

What API?
What exports this API function?

Hi, dstm! Big thanks for your miner.
I gets a lot of RECV, farm reconnects and keep working, but I think, that shares a lost.

I changes overclocking for minimum (tdp 50%), but RECV still my guest.
Sorry for my bad english.

This is not due to overclocking, it's a network issue, are you on wifi?

Nope, recv failed: 10054 is a socket error. Please fix this issues, it seems that your miner is very good on the hashrate but need some fix on network side.

Good question, I've been asking myself that too.
Meantime, I found an android app to monitor my rigs via MPH pool.
