[Awesome Miner] - Powerful Windows GUI to manage and monitor up to 200000 miners

[patrike]

Hi. how do you get sgminer x16r for amd to display profitability?
thanks

Sgminer X16r should display profitability just like any other mining software. Are you mining a coin or on a pool known to Awesome Miner, but the revenue is still $0?

I just set the amd to sgminer x16r and started mining. this is the only one that does this. I only mine on profit switch pools supplied.
I also have to add command -I 19 otherwise it mines 500kh/s per card

Could you provide a screenshot of the miner list in the main window of Awesome Miner, where also the Pools tab is selected at the bottom of the screen to make the pool URL visible? Thanks!

It looks like Awesome Miner isn't getting any API information from sgminer in this case.

Could you please send me the following (by e-mail or PM).

1) An API report via the toolbar Tools -> API Report
2) Start the miner with the Diagnostics button in the toolbar and copy the output

Thanks!

There are currently no feature to set two prices, but what I'm planning for later on is to allow you to define the power cost per profit profile, and then also allow the rules to set the power cost of a profile.
Already today you can use the Time-trigger to define when a rule should be executed, but you cannot set an interval. It would however make sense to support that as well

Also I want to remind you about the installation of electricity costs for each asic / rig, because The systems are not in one place

I ask you to give a set of rules for automatically adding the 4th pool to the ant after rebooting

Thank you

If each profile profile would allow a specific power cost to be specified, I assume that would improve the scenario you describe.

You can use a rule with the Detect Pool trigger, where you make it trigger if a specific pool is missing. The action would then be a "Miner Command" of the type Change Pool Group, where you point to a pool group with your 4 pools you want to use.

how do I upgrade from the UI so I can add HEX ?

Thanks for your feedback. This scenario is actually like in previous versions of Awesome Miner, where each of the "Avalon devices", not "Avalon devices status", listed in the web interface is represented as a device in the Awesome Miner ASIC tab.

The new implementation for Avalon must be enabled via the Properties of an External Miner, Advanced section. This will make the entire External Miner represent a single Avalon miner (instead of the entire controller).

What I will look into as well is to change the devices listed on the ASIC tab, as you pointed out with your screenshot. Instead of listing for example 2 "Avalon devies" like today, I could make it list all 6 "Avalon devices status" instead. Please note that this is only for the scenario where you use a single External Miner and looking at the entire controller. The main point with the new implementation was the new setting to make the entire External Miner represent a single miner.

As I pointed out, those results were using the default Avalon reporting with the main error being the number of miners reported per AUC (Device). As the one set of sshots shows in 1 case the 2 AUC's are correctly reported but number of miners attached to them is not. For default Avalon display I'd either leave it as just reporting the # of AUC's (original way) or if miners attached is presented then needs to be the right#.

Using the Advanced Avalon config -- Perfect results. Visually now with top end of the graph at 15THs vs 50+THs is FAR easier to see a few THs drop from any 1 miner. Kudos for that

edit: Query, when using the Advanced Avalon config and reporting per-miner does the Restart button do a global restart of cgminer (all miners on controller) or just restart the 1 miner? Since the Avalon API does has provision for it the ability to actually reboot the individual miner would be nice.

Ok. I just bought  an antminer s9 b22 with last firmware, very noisy,  does awesome miner configure frequency is working with this batch?

Hello Patrike,
Thanks a lot for adding ability to update softwares using local network shares. It works perfectly !

I would have another request regarding benchmarking. Most of the softwares allow AM to read power consumption from graphic cards.
Could you add the possibility for AM to read this power data during benchmarking and save it at same time it save hashrate ?
I know it's not representative of the global power used by a rig but it could be enough to compare profits between algorithms...

Thanks for the update.

The feature to include power usage for benchmarks should be possible to support on nVidia systems in the future.

Thank you patrike!

Could you give the consideration to offer (for a price where you see fit) periodic data collection into AM Cloud that includes data like http://mypc:17790/api/miners, and future, power consumption when integrated) please?

*** Long Version***
More feature suggestions - (likely suggested b4, but let's see if it can be pushed up the development plan)

I think by now, most ppl gotten into mining "seriously" (ones that can call collection of home rigs "mini farm" and has to fork out electricity cost from own pocket) are starting to realise that mining is hard work and not immediately profitable or "lucrative", as of this time with BTC hitting almost yearly low and Altpocalypse, a good portion of the mining community has already switched off their rigs / sold their equipment...etc. It probably makes good sense to implement a "real" performance analysis feature and there's no better time than now when everyone start to realise the pick and shovels are quite costly to run and work their magic.

Right now, I haven't came across (granted, haven't tried much) any software that seriously takes the cost factor into performance report/analysis. like @trucobit says, it's a feature that is becoming very sought after (see how desperate he is ). Everything involved in profit switching decision making is revolved around no more than 24 hours of data and can only provide estimate with limited samples, this is true not just for AM, but almost every collective mining management software out there.

IMHO, there really is no "performance analysis/report" when this performance doesn't take into account of cost, AM already has historic hashrate performance logging, but that means little on it's own if power consumption / monetary profit statistics cannot be used in conjunction with this data. Especially when hashrate differs from profit switching perspective and the data on its own has very little to no usefulness.

Might I humbly suggest, that since AM already has cloud service integrated. Is it possible for now, that you could provide some options to collect (as much in detail as possible) mining data like how @Finnsk3 does (http://stats.finnsk3.com/) periodically (1min is cool).

I understand implementing anything useful for representation / analysis will take huge amount of time (like @Finnsk3 said, he collected all the data, but he also lacks time to have it integrated in his own site for reporting), but at least it would be nice to have a way for us non-programmers to have these historical data collected and available for future use. and you could work this one out progressively to provide extra add-on services for the AM Cloud feature like how @trucobit suggested @Finnsk3 (at a cost of course, I know @trucobit and I for 2 are willing to pay for the reasonable add-on price for additional features ;p, i'm not inciting business competition between you and your customer(s), but who'd know AM better than you and already has a working cloud platform to run the services?)

Wouldn't be useful if there's no data to analyse, so better late than never, to start collection process now, and gradually expand the aspects of report analysis. This not only give insight to past performance, future estimates, but it could provide a nice foundation for "Intelligent Profit Switching" decision making etc.

One thing I'm doing (extremely slowly) is that while people are requesting ability to record and find out the optimal "intensity", I'm trying to find the optimal Hash/W at given BTC/Fiat in order to find the best Profit/W, by adjusting Power Limit instead of adjusting intensity, in theory and probably easily (but not for me, my mathematics sucks), there is an optimal given BTC price where benefit of increase in power consumption still results in more increase in profit and conversely in some cases, benefit (profit) of reducing power usage (hence increase H/W) actually is better when say, in a prolonged bear market like this year.

This for me (and my level of crappy maths) involves benchmarking at various PL (currently, i'm doing in 10% increments) and record them in different profiles, then later trying to figure out the correct formula, so I can say (in English/common language) and make rules that's like (for a very concise example):

Code:

When USD/BTC is > 10000 and/or mbtc/MHs (for particular algo) is > xxx, then use high PL profile, or else, use low PL profile.

this would come into very handy to find an optimal value for USD/BTC and mbtc/MHs (once I figured out the formulas or...if you could make AM do it, saves me the headache   ) used for the trigger, especially when you also have a comprehensive "historical" data to compare.

Best Regards,

P.S. I just tried minerstats.com's msOS, and the comprehensive reporting doesn't have what I wanted above, and AM is far more superior and versatile in terms of profit switching (and self managed), so for a price of paying for the kind of services like minerstats, minerboard, hiveOS, i'd rather have to just pay AM and have less complicated operation.

[moppidoo]

how do I upgrade from the UI so I can add HEX ?

HEX is included in the latest development release (should also mean stable release v5.4), online services for zPool, zergPool are already integrated, and z-enemy by default v1.15a is also the only included miner currently to mine the algo. Did you have any difficulty upgrading to the latest version?

[NotFuzzyWarm]

Ok. I just bought  an antminer s9 b22 with last firmware, very noisy,  does awesome miner configure frequency is working with this batch?

No, Awesome Miner cannot change the speed. These are INDUSTRIAL miners and not intended to be ran where there noise is a problem.
Perhaps try reading about them in the S9 thread located in the BTC hardware area...

The miners use auto-tune and without modification their speed cannot be changed.
That said, look in the BTC Mining software section for how this has been addressed with custom firmware for them.

Looking to use JCE GPU miner for TUBE it works but all the gpus show on CPU tabs how can I fix this ?

[baf28]

Please rather add zergpool.kom algorithms equihash 144 auto

[toptek12]

z-enemy miner did something i thought was strange they released 1.14 from beta 1.15a .

https://coinguides.org/z-enemy-1-14-1-15/ just a heads up an a ty for adding upload custom software a while back,


 z-enemy miner 1.14 works better then 1.15a or seems to for me.

mybad just looked https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3378390.0;all  enemy-1-16 is out .

PROFIT Switch ERROR NEOSCRYPT

Anyone notice this lately?

[jimlite]

Yes and it is weird because only 2 of my 4 computers inflate Neoscrypt like that and they all run awesome miner with same gpus and settings.

[ayiphelmy]

WTF with this upgrade? all my uploaded software is gone Damn!!! Stupid update EVER!!!

[principino1984]

Hi Patrike, are you going to add the support for BTMiner_NebuTech (https://github.com/NebuTech/BTMiner_NebuTech/releases) anytime?

thanks
Marco

[jimlite]

What is the best nvidia card pool switching settings? Is it switch if >10% and check every 3 minutes? Or is that too long and you mine at low rate for 2 minutes till switch? Or is it too short and you need to mine longer? Been playing with those settings and they seem to be the best compromise, but your cards obviously switch algos/pools a lot and have down time.

[toptek12]

can you add https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4724735.msg42696177#msg42696177   lolMiner v0.42 (Aug 17, 2018) .

Please!!! .

Totally in agreement with @Moppidoo, he has been able to express much better than I the importance of some functions that do not exist now. AM for me is the best program, but it can be improved, you already have options for almost everything, you update miners frequently, everything goes more or less well. It's time to have control and statistics, under my humble opinion

I will change the next release to display all individual miners on the ASIC tab for the case where you don't run with the Avalon-mode enabled.

I'm also trying to get documentation on the Avalon unique reboot API from the vendor, as the API do have some parameters you can specify what to reboot, but it may not be on the individual miner level but on the AUC level.
