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

[onyx369]

Hey Patrike

I'm trying to customize your software to display my portfolio / stats in one place via the Balance section of this software.
The builtin block explorer works for the coins loaded on that site.
Also, I've read the help section
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/coinbalance.aspx

Now I'm trying to put the balance in for
Bitcoinz, ZenCash, Hush, CVC, PIVX  

I've googled some block explorer sites for these coins... but I want to add them to the Balance section.

I mean I have found specific websites for these coins that detail their working block explorers.

I was hoping for some guidance on how to setup the Balance section for these coins. (its not a matter and cut/paste the URL, heh, I've tried)

How are any of you programming the Balance section to display the wallet totals of the coins that you are mining?

Its a handy feature to have in this software and the stock/default (BTC/LTC) features/explorers work fine. I'm just looking how direction as to how to program more than the available BTC/LTC coins

Thanks

OK I seem to have got to grips with templates, very useful, cuts down the number of miners I am using. But am I correct in thinking that I still need to have 2 miners defined for each rig if I want to have the option of using profit switching also?

Hi, I have 2 managed profit miners configured and DSTM Zcash CUDA Miner it's not taking the worker name on miningpoolhub when you use override pool settings, i want to have different worker names but they always mining with the deafult working name that you define in options>profit switching.
I've tried putting the --user XXX.XXX in command line with no luck. EWBF have the same problem, is anyone having the same problem?

I am having trouble setting up Awesome Miner to mine Electroneum as a worker for Nanopool.  There is a syntax to follow that includes the wallet, worker name, and email address, but when I do it, Nanopool never shows my worker for the wallet ID.  When I put in walletID/[MinerWorker]/user@email, it mines but doesn't show results on the pool, or at least none that I find.  I'm hoping someone out there has gotten this to work and can share the miner and pool config in a way that makes sense.

As it happens I just got this one working today. Here are the pool and miner.

Yes, because they are two different variants of "miners".  It helps to think of AM as taking objects such as pools, templates, software, hosts, and miners into "rigs that do what I want".  In this case Patrike has the license based on the number of "miners" you deploy.  A managed miner and a profit miner do two completely different things.

I've never tried to use the override pool setting options, but why would you want two different worker names?  It makes more sense to have the same worker name and two different rig names.  So if your worker name in miningpoolhub is "puwaha", and the profit miner names are "rig1" and "rig2", then AM will combine them to make "puwaha.rig1", and "puwaha.rig2".  They will then show up in the same dashboard in miningpoolhub.

You can't because you are a "newbie" on Bitcointalk... but I think my quoting you will display it... let's see...

I think most people have 2 miners for each rig - managed miner and profit switcher.  It's a pain that it uses up 2 licenses even though you can only run one at a time.  But it is what it is.

One thing to be careful of however is that you must stop one before starting the other as it currently doesn't do it automatically.  If you forget, it tries to run both at the same time.  Also, be aware that if you have both set to autostart then both will try to run when you fire up the software.

This is definitely a start, but how do you get an email address into the configuration so you can set the minimum payout at Nanopool?

I need to mine to different addresses that is why i need two separate worker names, everything is working fine on zpool and hashrefinery but with miningpoolhub workers names are not working with EWBF and DSTM miners.

Benchmarking cryptonight on AMD still points to nicehash stratums, therefore not usable, is there any way to change the default benchmarking pool?

Just put /emailaddress after the worker name.

1) You can still force the profit miner to mine a specific unlisted coin. In Options dialog, Coins&Profit section, you can add a user defined coin where you also can specify high profit value for it. Then add a pool using this coin and then add the pool as a "Custom pool" to the profit switcher (Profit switching section of the Options dialog). When the profit switcher looks at what is most profitable, your user defined coin will be number one.

2) If you only have Managed Miners (not profit switching), please use the concept of Managed Template to fast change between different configurations. This can be used instead of defining two Managed Miners for a single computer. See:
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/managedtemplate.aspx

1) I understand the concept of the changing the coin in the profit section, the problem with setting a coin to an artificially high value to force it to the top is that now the estimated earning values are off. From a convenience stand point, i dont have a "rough estimate" on how much i'm making. If i leave an accurate value for the coin settings, i would have to turn off all other profit switching options and leave only custom pool. Which leads us to the second problem: there's only one place to set custom pool for profit switching, and it applies to ALL profit miners. What if i want only a certain set of rigs to mine one coin, and the rest on regular zpool/mph/hashrefinery settings. Hence the need to have one profit miner and one managed miner for each rig.

To take that scenario even further, I am soon going to have certain rigs that need 4 miners configured because i have both amd and nvidia cards in them, 1 nvidia managed, 1 amd managed, 1 nvidia profit and 1 amd profit. 4 licenses used on one rig

2) I appreciate the managed templates, they help alot, but now I've got an ever growing list of templates, because I need to have a seperate template for each different combination of video card, coin and in some cases, pool. I think something that would help tremondously with this had been brought up as a feature request before, the ability to mass apply only certain settings to all the selected miners, instead of an entire template. I eagerly await that feature

Do you mind if i ask why licenses are tied to number of miners configured, instead of to the managed hosts themselves?

Hi! it seems that AM is displaying crazy numbers for zpool and SHA-3:

This can't be right!

I am seeing the same thing. It normally says anything from $2-$8 a day, however, now it's saying $1,262. I tried restarting the miner but it just says the same thing. It's mining on Zpool. Any ideas?

[crackfoo]

keccak is changed it to match the other blake/sha algos with BTC per GH instead of MH.

https://github.com/tpruvot/yiimp/commit/6b6866048e2e5a1ab0fb373e0c65da296bb0556b

You'll need to update accordingly.

Yeah, they changed it. Here's the tweet https://twitter.com/_zpool_/status/942398598557388800

Disabling keccak until it's fixed in AM.

Thanks! A new Awesome Miner version will be released within the new few hours to adjust to these changes.

I got a request not sure if you will do it but think about it.  Please  .

Sense the DEV of afterburner said he won't support anything over 8GPUs and calls mining crazyness . lol

which isn't any more.

is there a way you can link AM to use other OC clocking software or come up with something built into awesome like ab and the AB Server . it might benefit you better in the long run .

I'll even pay extra for it , if needed ... as a bought add on with a one time charge .
