Hi, all!
I have a system of 2 1070s, one Gigabyte Windforce, the other Asus Aorus. The problem is, dstm miner crashes when I use both cards. So, at certain settings (stock and OC) I can mine with a single GPU for infinity, but when I use both - I experience several "light crashes" which are cured by resetting the driver and restarting the miner - and then a complete system freeze. Even running both GPUs at stock. Sometimes it can take a day, sometimes an hour to do so.
I can say that the time required for a complete fail has decreased, it took more time earlier.
I use Win7, a 700 W PSU, MSI AB for overclocking. One GPU is in the 16x slot, the other is connected via a raiser. The motherboard is a bit old (from 2012), if that's important. And a double core proc (core2duo) and 2 Gb RAM. Driver version - 390.77
I've similar problem when i tried same config one card directly in 16x slot and second in raiser. In my case second card didn't work at all. As soon as I put both cards in raisers it has started to work without problems. I think when you connect one card directly to x16 slot on older mobos it use all PCIe lines and then other cards will not work properly.

I tried out --color. It turns the text from white to pale blue. EWBF's output is FAR superior, I wish he would update the miner to match or beat dstm. +1 I do not understand why he did this way? As this is almost pointless change from white to pale blue. As IMO temp colors has to change depending value, for example green <60C, yellow <75C and red >75C. Why if something was good, like colors in EWBF, DTSM is trying to invent a wheel come with this type of color option. Instead he should do just same thing what EWBF has done with colors? Did anybody noticed slightly less earning running 0.6? I know that diff is going crazy for last few weeks, but at the moment with 0.5.7 (for last 3 days with much higher diff) I've more earning that with 0.6. I've done testing with 0.6 for 3-4 days and I'm back to 0.5.7.

@DTSM
Bug found: Linux When zm.cfg is present command line option to switch configs is ignored. You cannot use 2 configs without isolating the entire directory.
I'm not sure if I'm understanding this correctly but having multiple configuration files in the same directory works fine for me. For me it is using the one with default name even if I give an option to use a different one.

Any way to restart the miner after GPU unresponsiveness? 2018-02-21 14:20:28|gpu_id 4 54 1 unspecified launch failure 2018-02-21 14:20:28|gpu 4 unresponsive - check overclocking 2018-02-21 14:20:28|cudaMemcpy 1 failed
Use this Miner Autorun (Watchdog) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2071108.0Thank you for that recommendation. That looks fine, but requires to use windows. I am running a linux rig... :-/ Any other idea? You can use this little python script that I made to handle the miner: #!/usr/bin/env python3
import subprocess import sys
def restart_miner(proc): print('Restarting miner...') proc.kill()
def process_line(proc, line): if 'cudaMemcpy 1 failed' in line: restart_miner(proc) else: print(line, end='')
if __name__ == '__main__': while True: proc = subprocess.Popen(sys.argv[1:], stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.STDOUT) for line in proc.stdout: process_line(proc, line.decode())
Copy/paste the code in a file, make it executable and run it with "./filename your_launch_command". With a file named "start.py" and for the default dstm's launch script the command would be "./start.py ./zm --cfg-file zm.cfg". The script will restart the miner when it sees the "cudaMemcpy 1 failed" error message. BTW, it should work on Windows too if you have python3 installed. Remove the first line and replace "sys.argv[1:]" by "['zm.exe', '--cfg-file', 'zm.cfg']" (or whatever your launch command is). yaay! thank you very much! I will check out your script today. i was hoping for such a way! thank you pustul!! Great stuff, thank you for that

I'm going to give this a try as EWBF is only giving me this on a 4 GPU system: Temp: GPU0: 59C GPU1: 65C GPU2: 69C GPU3: 64C GPU0: 259 Sol/s GPU1: 265 Sol/s GPU2: 261 Sol/s GPU3: 262 Sol/s Total speed: 1047 Sol/s +-----+-------------+--------------+ | GPU | Power usage | Efficiency | +-----+-------------+--------------+ | 0 | 220W | 1.18 Sol/W | | 1 | 144W | 1.84 Sol/W | | 2 | 170W | 1.54 Sol/W | | 3 | 144W | 1.82 Sol/W | +-----+-------------+--------------+ GPU0 is a 1080Ti and the other 3 are 1070's I'm expecting around 1800 Sol/s (according to whattomine) BTW, the zm.exe scan's mostly clean using virustotal, score is 4/68 https://www.virustotal.com/#/file/39209c0077e1fc42a5f511ac9e81817073a8d4623ebfc57fbec3308f96457316/detection

I restarted my rig and EWBF gave me this (with stock GPU settings):
Temp: GPU0: 54C GPU1: 53C GPU2: 56C GPU3: 55C GPU0: 733 Sol/s GPU1: 434 Sol/s GPU2: 440 Sol/s GPU3: 440 Sol/s Total speed: 2047 Sol/s
The above hash rates are much better - a simple restart fixed my low hash rate.
Comparing the above to DTSM, DTSM gives me this:
2018-03-02 14:55:17| GPU0 58C Sol/s: 744.2 Sol/W: 3.40 Avg: 747.0 I/s: 396.5 Sh: 8.39 1.00 71 ++++ 2018-03-02 14:55:19| GPU1 62C Sol/s: 454.0 Sol/W: 2.73 Avg: 447.3 I/s: 238.7 Sh: 6.57 1.00 50 +++++ 2018-03-02 14:55:20| GPU2 66C Sol/s: 439.7 Sol/W: 2.70 Avg: 444.9 I/s: 238.1 Sh: 8.38 1.00 75 ++ 2018-03-02 14:55:22| GPU3 62C Sol/s: 440.2 Sol/W: 2.68 Avg: 447.8 I/s: 237.8 Sh: 6.59 1.00 58 2018-03-02 14:55:22| ========== Sol/s: 2078.0 Sol/W: 2.88 Avg: 2086.9 I/s: 1111.1 Sh: 29.93 1.00 63
So, for me, the difference is negligible.

You might need a good driver or reduce the memory frequency for the 1080Ti.

For me, the problem seems to be somehow connected to temperature. Though the working temps are below the factory recommended limit of 83 C, somewhere around 78 C. Right now I launched XMR mining on the second GPU, which is not so aggressive, both temps are 60-65, by now it is stable. However, the system used to operate mining Zcash at 75-78 C for weeks....

Not sure if this is the place to get help. I want to switch from Nicehash to DSTM. I have 6 1080 TI's. I downloaded the DSTM zip. My question is: How do I input my ZEC address? Is there a video tutorial for this? I have tried searching this forum but havent seen a setup from start to finish. Thanks for your help.

Use your zcash wallet address as pool username. What pool are you willing to mine at ?

I did not fing any setting about handling crashes. Miner does not autorestart at default. So how to handle it.. that is question.
