SRBMiner Cryptonight AMD GPU Miner V1.9.3 - native algo switching

[doktor83]

well this makes sense now i understand what he meant

Yes, I use the --remoteaccess feature of cast-xmr and that is the main reason I cannot switch my two Vega rigs to SRB

Documentation says "Remote access to get current status at http://127.0.0.1:7777 in JSON format", so I simply try to read JSON from that port for each of the machines. I use Raspberry Pi. If one of the machines did not respond, that means that cast-xmr is unresponsive (or the entire machine for that matter). The Raspberry Pi sends me a push message on my phone so I can check what seems to be wrong.

I don't like to auto reset the machines without me checking what actually went wrong, but I do it manually by logging in to my Raspberry. I have written a Python script which allows me to control 8 relay switches. I can soft shut down or turn the machine on (short power button press) or reset it (long power button press).

I'll be watching this topic and as soon as this option is added to SRB, I'll give it a chance.

there is already an api which gives you data in json format

Oh, there is? I'll read the first post in this thread once again

v. 1.5.6 still have problem - if some gpus stop hashing the miner not hangs but just stoped and not showing any information further. So if i see that and press  some key (space or h for example) it will show that gpu's hash speed is 0 and make reconnect to pool and after it will work good for some time.

sorry but i dont understand,can you turn on logging and share that?

it's my bad-bad english it's not your fault... =]
I will turn on logging and try to catch this situation for you

V1.5.6

+ "min_rig_speed" parameter defines the average hashrate we want to maintain. If 5 min average hashrate is less than the value we defined, restart miner.[/size]

Hi, Doc. Can you make a thing that when srbminer detect total_hashrate<min_rig_speed, it runs "any.bat" file? The GPU-Z stimuling hashrate realy work. In .bat file I can start GPU-Z and kill it after time. Restart the miner does not always help. Anyway, restart the miner can be done from bat file for default. Please, Doc!

Art Gar, i made a tool for that recently. you can connect rig to Claymore's Manager and execute bat from it: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4324950

btw does it work only with Heavy algo? I'm digging normalv7, tried several GPU-Z versions and didn't get any increase

my guess is its a missconfigured rig than the miner, for me even 1.3.* versions run rock solid

Hi Doc!

Good news!
Did you make something to the code???
I have a small increase in hashrate with the last version!

You may find it at least!
Keep up!

is there a "ideal scenario" to run GPU-Z? I noticed a hashrate drop while running.

For who had success doing this: what you did? What version? Running gpu-z.exe -minimized? How can I minetize the procedure?

In my personal experience, I had same cards with same mem type and same OC settings, yet some did 950 h/s, some did, 980, some did 1020. When I shut down the miner and I restarted, this time a card would randomly work at 950, although it could be 1030 the previous run. By chance, I read here that someone had their hash rate increase when GPU-Z was turned on and he looped through each card.

In my case, no such thing is necessary. I just fire it up, and it "fixes" hash rates in 1-2 minutes. It fixes the hash rate fall from switching pools in a few minutes in the same manner.

I have 13 cards running, win 10, adrenaline drivers. Maybe it works for setups with many cards, maybe not. Maybe it works with adrenaline drivers, maybe not I can't be sure, but if you are suffering from random hashrates from the same card, this may work for you.

Hi hesido!

do you have 13 cards running on the same machine?
are all these cards AMD brand?
All I want to know is how many cards of the same type (AMD) we can run under Win10.

Thanks in advance

yes, but i measured an increase of max 0.5% on 580 8g, don't know maybe some other cards got more boost

This is interesting, devfee pool is the same pool you are using. I ran B2N for 12 hours for test and got 6 devfee connects, but not one banned ip message.
I guess that pool is 'too sensitive'

[PIOUPIOU99]

Ohh  noo 
This pool at 0 fee 

[doktor83]

Ohh  noo

turn on log, maybe we will be smarter

Log enable rig 1.

Yes, on 13 cards on a single machine, all AMD. Asus B250 miner m/b.

doktor, is the miner switching algo automatically between cryptonight and normalv7? I'm able to connect and mine on etn.spacepools.org using normalv7 despite the coin not forking until the morning?...  

EDIT: I don't think so. I think they've directed v7 hash onto a testnet of some sorts. I'm submitting shares but I'm not getting paid for the hash.

[Sgsg666]

There's definitely a bug on updates after V1.5.4.  Miner stops hashing/hangs after GPU restart process(this is unusual and only happen when watchdog detected a 0 hashrate).

@doktor83 should I stop using start.bat?

Doctor, I really like your products. I use SRBPolaris and SRBMiner. I would like more freedom for SRBMiner user in watchdog's events or pools'events by bat files. Please allow users to take actions on watchdog's events from bat files themselves. For the miner, the following are important: stability of mining, remote monitoring, high hashrate. Mining on the CPU it is actually for few miners. The best solution would be to make it separate from the mining on discrete gpus.

While your best version is 1.5.4 on drivers 18.4.1. But still - Drop HR always after the event "socket_error: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host" or Internet connection lost.

With best wishes from Russia.
