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

[UpWind]

Hi all, and thanks for the answers, they were certainly useful. I have some further questions.

I am looking for utilization of rules feature but it appears its not possible to create a rule that can assess "per month" gain and apply profile switching (in fact, algorithm switching). Can any of you manage to apply such a rule? Basically, I want to make a switch if monthly gain under "Miners" tab is under or over certain numbers.

Is there a way to mine specific coins as in VTC and MONA switching? Also is there a way I can tell what coin I'm mining? Thanks

Here's a possible issue:  why can't I edit the "Add to worker name" field on a template (under General->Mining Pool)?  I am using a built-in miner and and have selected a pool.  I can edit the field ok on the managed miner's properties with the same other settings.

Yeah so this is kind of a big problem with pools like Nanopool where you want to append the worker name.  If you apply templates then it breaks pools that don't support such a syntax.

I haven't tried yet but is it possible to edit the setting through editing the configuration file?  I realize it may be over-written if you edit the template through AM.

Version 1.0 released: Awesome Miner 1.0 Product Announcement

Next generation pool switching: Awesome Profit Switching
Awesome Miner introduces the next generation of profit switching multi-algorithm pool mining. By using both real-time coin profitability statistics to switch between single-coin pools and also using real-time statistics from popular auto-switching multi-pools, Awesome Miner can automatically switch between mining a specific coin or mine on the currently most profitable auto-switching multi-pool.

Awesome Profit Switching makes it possible to get higher profits than any of the auto-switching multi-pools alone, by automatically switching between multiple algorithms and multiple multi-pools.

How accurate are these switching procedures? which gives better proffit those manage miners or those profit manage miners. I using the profit manage miner but Im a little curios about its switching decisions. what are the AM basis for these switching. And also about the benchmarking I find it hard to understand. I read that if you benchmark your miner it will give better decision about switching.
Please enlighten me.

What is the "Balance" tab supposed to display? There's never anything there and I have a substantial balance.

Patrike,
At present, yiimp-based pools are very popular.

But on the yiimp-based pools we can not specify rig name through worker (-o), we must do it only through password, like -p c=BTX,RIGNAME1.
Therefore, the Awesome Miner can not specify the name of the RIG through password and there is confusion on the pool - all rigs are unnamed.

Add please the ability to add a rig through a password, somithing like this or in another way

I've been having a really annoying issue with the remote agent for a few months now.  I've tried all kinds of things and cannot fix it.

I have many mining rigs running via remote agent.  All in server racks, built properly, unique IP addresses, etc.
I'm running the newest version of everything - but this has been going on for several versions.

Miner4 is my problem rig.

Any time I stop or start ANY OTHER remote agent rig's mining, Miner4 ALSO shuts down (even though I didn't touch Miner4).

So for example if I shut down Miner7 to switch it from Eth to EtN - Miner 4 ALSO shuts down as soon as I tell Miner7 to shut down.  Same for every other Miner... shut any of them down and Miner4 shuts down.

When it shuts down it craps it out to the point that I have to remote desktop into Miner4, kill the awesome miner remote agent and then restart the remote agent to get it to mine again.

I've completely removed and reinstalled the remote agent on Miner4.
I've completely removed Miner4 from AwesomeMiner and rebuilt it's config from scratch.
I've updated the remote agent to the newest version on every rig.
I've tried changing permissions on the remote agent to administrator with no change.

Doesn't matter what I do.  If I touch any other miner - this remote agent shuts down mining.

Has anyone else seen this bug?

Have you replaced the network card? It could be snarfing packets not intended for it.

Smells like network sourced issue. Assign totally diiferent static IP to that miner. (like, if you have 192.168.1.2--10,  make it  192.168.1.178 etc, far away from others)

Use a different PCIe network card. They should be cheap.

You don't have to give up and leave your rigs unnamed. Just hard-code the password and clone the pool for different workers. I have this problem too on hashvault.pro -- password has to be in the format [workername]:[email]. Also, go to advanced and enable 'ignore 'add to worker name' on miner'.

I just updated my from 4.1.1 and I noticed (not sure if it was before or not) profit switching for ASICS.
I'm using awesomeminer for S9s to monitor and notify under some rules (speed, offline etc.) I'm not familiar with profit switching on ASICs, can someone explain?
I feel that I'm not using maximum out of this software possibilities even thou I'm running small amount of S9s
any help would be much appreciated.

I'm running Awesome Miner to run a Managed Profit Miner for 2x 1080ti and it's reporting a hashrate approximately 73Mh/s on Zpool[Nist5]  for each GPU (Nist5 presumably the Bulwark coin)

This hash rate figure is consistent with the DOS window output of CCMiner saying the same thing.

However, looking at ZPool.ca for my wallet I'm seeing a hashrate of just 3.5Mhs (5 minute average having been running for an hour or so).   This does not seem right.

Which is right, which is wrong, and how can I fix it ?

Apologies if this question/subject's been covered, only found one or two posts but didn't really hit my question.

I understand that Awesome miner can be configured with either Whattomine or Coinwarz.

I'm using Whattomine, but my earnings are nowhere near the estimates?

Is there anyway to get a more accurate estimate?

On zpool now but doesn't seem to matter.

Is Zpool recording the same hashrate as AwesomeMiner ?

Hi ive one question. How to fix that for managed miner.

If i add a miner via scan it shows the statistic(hashrate, shares,..)

If i add a managed miner it shows interface offline.

Another question how to switch pool. The miner starts via batchfile pool is also choosen in the batch file. So how can i setup awesome miner that it changes the value -S [Pool] in the batchfile ?

ah, I see that is does not.

Which kinds of answers my 1st question, but leads me to the next which is why would that be?

Does this miner support switching between 2 different pools? I have set my miner to work with two different pools (zpool and mph) both in global and in miner's setting but apparently only one pool can be used at the same time( I've tried running them one by one and they work fine but they don't detect together).
P.S Also wondering if you can mine wiht CPU using AM because when I click "add miners" it only offers 2 choices: nvidia and amd :/
Thanks in advance

Here is another question, It seems Awesome Miner is switching based on USD-based profit calculations, is it possible to force it to make decisions based on BTC profits?

That is an ugly workaround if you have many rigs or switch pools often.

With Awesome Miner C# Script API how can I call on the miner to get it's local ip address or remote host. I am trying to build something so I can use a pre built in trigger and the action requires me to know the ip of the miner on my local network.

This will be a script everyone is going to want so I will post it here once it is done. More so the guys with lots of miners.
