Hi Dan,
We tested on win10, Celeron(R) G4900, v1.3n+, with no problem.
But we will keep looking
Thanks.
Cheers

I have the newest version running on my 3 rigs (Celeron 3900, Celeron 3930, and i5 CPU).  I will let you know how it goes.

Anyone else having trouble that miner is mining and working and its actually OFFLINE at pool (leafpool but yesturday same happened all night long i left my home pc with 1 gpu mining at f2pool and it miner only for 1-2 hours )? ..... I use HiveOS currently and 1 of the my rigs went offline at some point but it was working ....

also all extra parameters for Hive are ignored , if I add --oc1 miner doesnt even start at all . It just hangs at beginning and does nothing. Adding --show-shares etc etc --latency etc does nothing on hiveos . I tired one at line and all on one line , doesnt matter , miner is started without extra params

also please make an option to disable all the calls for nvml i guess and dont output any GPU info , we can see this info on main monitoring page..

Hi N0pr3s3n7,
we are looking into your offline worker problem.
Maybe it is fixed in the last miniZ build. We are unsure, since it is hard to replicate.

Because you need to manually delete the file (to avoid this), on your flightsheet write in
Installation URL: https://miniz.ch/hiveos/miniZ-1.3n1.tar.gz

About the options, it is odd what you describe. --oc1 might be related to your OC settings.

Regarding the nvml calls, we tested to remove nvml stuff and it made no difference.
This only happens every 10s, it has no impact on cpu usage, which is a separate problem that we are investigating.

Let us know if the new file helped.
Thanks!
Cheers

1. Did u change name on start up ? Im not sure if I am using 1.3n1 or 1.3+ . I reinstalled with custom-get but still ? Also 1 more thing custom-get from HiveOS doesnt get httpS links , it should be http.

2. How is --oc1 related to OC settings ? what about --oc2? When should you use them and by what OC settings(like how does oc1 or oc2 help by card consuming power in W ? is it like using oc1 with card consuming less then 65 % of PL and oc2 for rest or ?) with --oc1 i am trying to use low power OC with max coreclock (till card crash) and - memory , such as  +150 / -1000 for example

3. also setting constant voltage to card seems a lot better but my rigs are on Linux . And its very big husslle to spent a lot of time fine tunning each card for perfect voltage and OC settings.. Just card seems more stable and it's able to gain more hash for lower W

4. Also extra params are still ignored by hive os ? anything about this ?

Just installed miniZ miner v1.3n+ from website

on my 1080s rig all works fine - CPU 33 %(+12% Sols compare to gminer)
on my 1060s rig not good - CPU 99 %

You'll have to give it up to 24 hours to know for sure.  I had it fail between 1 and 12 hours.  What CPUs are you running on your rigs?

[ARTRN]

Latest 1.3n+ still suffer from miner offline in pool just like the previous version. Whatever changes on this version doesn't fix the dreaded offline. Mining on algo 150.5.

[miniZ]

responsive support here. if i had any merit, i'd use it ^
mmpOS have deployed n1.3+ and it seems to be working fine.
it would be helpful if you can push out advisories on updates to the mmpOS guys, they are upcoming in this field.

thanks.

Hi rgsnedds,

Thank you for your message.
Good to know that it seems to be working ok now.
It is also great that miniZ 1.3n+ was added to mmpOS
We will add mmpOS to our list.
Cheers

[miniZ]

With the new version it looks ok. W10, G3930, 5x 1080ti + 1x1080 cpu load 100%, new version 70%. Rig 6x1060GB, W10, G4400 cpu 100%, new version 15%. Good work

Hi stzcze,
it is good to see that there was an nice improvement, we will keep looking to reduce this usage even further.
Cheers

Hi N0pr3s3n7,
Thank you for the information.

1. It looks that you are using the latest. It is ok.
   You can also use http, we confirm that it will work as well. Thanks for letting us know.
2. We meant that your OC values can affect stability, and could have an effect on what you were experiencing. --oc1 is best to use with PL. --oc2 tends to be best when you seek performance/speed. But you can try and check which provides better efficiency, performance and stability for your settings.
3. We tend to use what we call ECO values, choosing a combination of PL and OCs that looks stable and maximizes efficiency. We share some values on our website https://miniz.ch/1505-2/ but may need a tweek for your conditions.
4. From the screenshot we see that --show-shares and --extra are working.

Do you know which NVIDIA driver you're using?

Cheers

Hi psychoatical,
thanks for reporting.
We are aware of this and we will try to fix it.

Hi ARTRN,
We are sorry about that...
We really want to get rid of that issue, but it is very hard to replicate.
On which pool were you mining?
Thanks.

Im also having the same issue as above where the miner is mining locally but shows offline in the pool while mining beam on sunpool.top. Ill try and help any way that i can just let me know how

I doubt it's the pool. Mining on pool.btc.com. It happened randomly.

Hi BIOLERUP4LIFE, ARTRN,
Thanks. Yes it does not seem to be pool related.
Did you notice an increase in cpu load when it happened?

i had a thought on it.. is it at all possible that the devfee might be slightly buggy and sticking - I can't think any other reason why the miner would continue but would go offline from specified pool?

I didn't notice cpu spike or anything like that. I'm on Intel 8700k with only a rtx 2080 (gaming pc). It also happened to my other rig with 6 gpus.

miniZ - As mentioned earlier, I am running the latest miniZ (what I'm calling v1.3n++ since there was another update with no version change).  My rig with the i5 CPU that had the CPU running at a nice low % failed just a short bit ago.  It looks like about 30 minutes ago, miniZ stopped communicating with sunpool and also stopped writing to the log, but the mine window had activity.  Then the miner window crashed and just closed a couple minutes ago.  Nothing was in the log since it stopped writing to it about 30 minutes ago.  I will let my other 2 rigs with Celeron CPUs run for a bit longer, but I will have to switch them off miniZ overnight.

[MineOrDie]

It's the same for me. Still 8+ LA on HiveOS.

Hi MineOrDie,
are you using version 1.3n or v1.3n+?
Cheers

After a reboot it's fixed. I'm on the + version.
Also, can you help me set it up for mining BEAM on 3GB cards because I get "out of memory" errors all the time on Hive OS?

Hi rgsnedds,
It does not seem to be related. This was one of the first things we checked.
It seems to be related whith some changes we introduced with the new algo.
We keep digging.
Thanks.
