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

[TheHypnoToad]

Hello I'm just trying out this miner.

Can you add multiple servers in the same way you can in EWBF using the --config option?

I'd like it so if a pool goes down it automatically connects to a backup server

I'm working on failover server support.

Thanks dude In the meantime I've got a script that pings the mining servers before mining but not all servers respond to a ping.

DSTM miner is now added to smOS

I will say I may be having a connection issue with my 12 card on it though. .

My 6 cards are working perfect though with increased hashrates


EDIT had to take my 12 card off of DSTM . . not working properly any idea DSTM?

This is most likely because zm uses one separate connection for each GPU - zm handles them completely independent currently. Some routers/pools seem to have issues with this. I'm currently testing a new version which uses a single connection.

It has nothing to do with routers or pools. This is just because zm take too much cpu load.

With G4400s, I can barely put 7 cards... it's too unstable. Just a background process (an update or something) is enough to crash everything.

So, a 12 cards rig, I don't even think about it!
If you still want to run 12 cards, you'll probably have to upgrade the proc... or stick to ewbf

That's kind of odd, I'm using a g4560 and mining on 6 cards, CPU load average for me = 2.8%

What card do you have? I'm using 1070s and 1080s Ti (windows 10)

I beleive the developer shares should be 2.00% of a "round" the miner works. It resets every time the connection is lost or the miner restarts. I think it's the only explanation to this.

as i know miner doesn't reset "rounds" or etc...i mean that after 10-minutes reconnect try's first sumbitted share can be DevFee.
and some more interesting thing:
miner show ~490
flypool show ~460
and dev H/r ~30

For a fact, actually, I can't seem to be able to mine zCash with any tool on linux right now on this rig.

Is there something obvious I am missing?

[TheHypnoToad]

What card do you have? I'm using 1070s and 1080s Ti (windows 10)

I'm using 5 x 1070's and a 1060.

My OS is Ubuntu Server x64 16.04.1

My cpu is in power saving mode (800Mhz) while mining

Code:

lscpu | grep MHz
CPU MHz:               799.804
CPU max MHz:           3500.0000
CPU min MHz:           800.0000

Looking at 'top' right now and it's showing between 10%-30% on all 4 cores.

I guess it could be a Windows 10 issue?

Can you mine with a single card?

Weird, works now. I tried with a single card and it worked, then I did all cards and it worked, same command line was before.

[poby]

Trying it on 2 rigs of (1070ti x 6 + 1070 x 6).  Hashrates are up by at least 3%.  Power usage is increased by around 0.5% which is negligible.

Hope it will run as stable as EWBF.

One very minor improvement I would like to suggest:  I really like EWBF's nice colored text display especially the neat power usage box (-pec option).  Would be nice if something like that could be done.  I know it's only cosmetic but pretty things make the world a nicer place

[ambien22]

Wanted to take a minute and say thank you. I used nicehash for a few days until I became a little more versed in mining and found your miner. My hash rate is up by 30 with no overclocking insane. Great work.

How the heck do you specify a worker name?

zm --server us1-zcash.flypool.org --port 3333 --user t1QmwNgVc6VrhTuGgL9so7jeVz1BYcN3dPz/worker1

^^ It won't start unless I remove /worker1

/facepalm

Am obviously without clue.

[Astaroth43]

Hi,

I've just started using DSTM on SimpleMining OS on a 12x 1070 mining rig. It starts mining at around 5.4 Ksol/s but after an hour it drops to less than 4.8 Ksol/s and continues to drop.

My OC is:
100 core
600 memory
120 power limit

I was using EWBF with the same config and it was stable.

PS. Sorry for my English.

Hi guys can anyone tell me how can i monitor dstm console in realtime i have set telemetry but it does not show console i'm
use simplemining and i want to have secondery method of monitoring the console

Hi guys can anyone tell me how can i monitor dstm console in realtime i have set telemetry but it does not show console i'm

The only way to monitor console on SMOS is to use SSH or plug in a monitor.

Use w/e SSH client you like, ssh to your miner local ip (like 192.168.1.69), user is miner, pass is miner, then run command "screen -x miner" without quote of course.

my miner is on another network actually on another place i have a monitor connected but to check i have to drive 10min thats why i want to know if there is a way
to monitor dstm console like clamores console tru a browser or what ever else cause if i cant i have to move to windows

You can also watch the console on simplemining.net, although it does take a minute or so to update. Otherwise set up ssh.

dstm - great work.  I am getting a more efficient miner out of this client than ewbf.

Rest of you gentlemen/ladies - your help has been much appreciated.

I'm going to try and get another 1080ti installed today in my system.  My concern is I chose the aorus extreme which takes a full 3 slots to fit.  It is going to be crammed in there pretty tight with my existing FE.  In the short term I may be forced to increase fan speeds and keep TDP down on both of them to keep heat down.  Long term I may have to come up with plan b.

[MeistroUK]

Faster than ewbf but not quite as much as bminer - getting 2222 s/s with 3 x 3GB 1060s and 3 x 1070s

Annoying thing is it keeps crashing after like 5 hours using it
