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

[patrike]

Hello Patrike. there something that I wanted to comment to see if somehow you could do

Surely you know, I know you know the AM CU of shootaa. He has left it abandoned. It only has small fixes to do, the problem that as the Explorer have been updated, when reading the HTML to extract the data, I mean to parse, it does not get the nethash, but the difficulty.

I do not know to what extent you could rescue, that you talk to Shootaa to see if he gives it up, fix it and offer it as a complement of Awesome miner. The truth is that I miss it and it's a pity to lose that job already done.

I will not be able to take on the AM CU work.

If there is a significant demand for having a few similar features in Awesome Miner, that could be a way forward. As with all other feature requests, it needs to be prioritized among many other requests as well. I hope you understand this point. Thanks!

One other thing - I see a lot of other posts about coin values - I don't know if its been brought up but with coincalculators, recently its exchange prices aren't being updated that often - or at least for lower volume coins - but its "average last price" is.  This can cause the current profit estimates to be way off. It would be great if there would be a way to use that value instead of the exchange ones for more accurate mining.

Awesome Miner uses "Average Last Price" by default for CoinCalculators. When "Exchange Filter mode" is set to Disabled in the Options dialog, Statistics Provider section, this average price is used.

If you instead enable the exchange filter, the exchange rate for a specific exchange will be displayed. To avoid low volume exchanges to be considered, you can configure a minimum exchange volume.

Hello
Any plans to add Zilminer for dual mining?

I've just had a quick look at that one so far. It states that it's based on Ethminer so it might be possible to add already today if you specify the mining software as Ethminer.
I do see that Zilminer also have some unique concepts for when it should be started and stopped.

[patrike]

it is possible to benchmark 2 of 8 card?
I have 4x1070ti and 4x1060 and i want to benchamrk it.

Yes - you can select the GPU in the upper right corner of the Benchmark dialog.

You can for example run the benchmark for 1070 and save the results to one Profit Profile and then run the benchmark for 1060 and save the result to another Profit Profile.

For more information about Profit Profiles and how you can create a Profile Group, see:

Of course I understand, many suggestions and little time to do everything. I just suggest, I really appreciate your work.

PAtrike I have been talking to KARL from CTM in his discord, I am very active speaking with the developers.

I have convinced you that shortly in your API, include the purchase and sale price, as CC. I hope you can integrate it in AM. Many times CTM gives the value of the last sale, something that is not desirable, and as this has already been done for CC, it will be easy to implement it in CTM. Please talk to CTM's KArl for these new data in the CTM api. IF it's not done yet, you have a few days left.


Really CC updates prices very little, even with large volume coins, does not do the price work well. CC is good in the data of the currencies, but not in the prices. And yet CTM is very good at giving updated prices, but now when we can choose the purchase price as I like it.

It gives the impression that CC is more and more abanadonado. I suggest everyone to put cointomine as the first provider. I can not be seeing the same price of a coin, in the case of GRIN, kept the same price for 4 days in CC, something unaffordable.

Thanks for pushing for the highest bid / lowest ask feature. It's quite easy for me to add a property for this in Awesome Miner once available via the CTM API.

My managed profit miners are going "offline" now and then, this seem to happen when pools fail (seen it on nicehash and zpool so far, with bminer, gminer and z-enemy). Even that the miner is flagged as offline, it is still connected to awesome miner manager and I can just start it again. Is there a way to force the miner to not stop/go to the next pool/algo, or any ideas on how should I troubleshoot this?

On options->Profit switching I have this:
Ignore pools with no accepted shares in minutes: checked 6
Ignore minutes: 50
Ignore pools after too many failed miner restart attemps: checked

Thanks

On its website it already shows the purchase and sale price, and also in several times, current, 1 hour, 3 hours etc ... I do not know if it will still be in the api, so I indicated that contact KArl or see your api directly.

It would be nice to be able to choose the current or 3 hours and sale or purchase price as we do in CC.

Is the scenario that once you run into this problem, even after > 6 minutes, Awesome Miner has still not marked the pool as failed and moved on to the next pool? It just keeps running the same mining software that is unable to do its work - while it display "Interface offline"?

In the Options dialog, Statistics Provider section, you have the setting "CoinToMine Exchange Rate" that you can set to Default (last price) / Highest Bid / Lowest Ask.

The limitation right now is that Awesome Miner only can read the Current or 24h avg values here. The 1 hour / 3 hour values are not yet part of the CTM API.

it will be soon, at least the price of sale and purchase. You can also suggest that you include the times.

Although I always work at Current, I am not interested in any average of hours, because it always distances you from reality.

Hi Patrike.

Ever since I installed the last update AM notifies me that all of my A9 Zmaster's are running at 9999 degrees but the factory GUI is correct. Can I roll back the update somehow?

I usually can't remote to the computers very fast so when I remote to them they are just not doing anything, I can confirm the "Interface offline" only for Equihash 150.5+NiceHash+Gminer CUDA Equihash Miner (it happens more often, I'm not 100% sure about the others).

Edit: If I go to right click->view details (even after a few hours) I have several timestamps (as if the mining didn't stop) and when I click the timestamp after the error (i.e. 12 minutes after the error), it shows the message that some pool is being ignored and the button to reset. If I click a more recent timestamp there isn't any ignored pool message.

Hello. Can you please select the miner and send me the API Report for it (via the toolbar Tools -> API Report)?
Which version did you upgrade from?

Thanks for the update.

The fact that you do see the "Failed" for some pool in the View Details dialog indicates that Awesome Miner did detect this pool failure. The profit switcher will then not use this pool for a while, but the profit switching decision might be made a number of minutes later, depending on how often the profit switcher is configured to run.

Right now you have an ignore time of only 50 minutes, so Awesome Miner will start using the pool a while later and this is why you no longer see the "Failed" indicator. If the pool fails again a little later, Awesome Miner will again mark it as failed and ignore it.

The idea is that Awesome Miner shouldn't be stuck on a failed pool for many hours or days, but a number of minutes of mining will always be lost before Awesome Miner will consider it to be a failure. For this reason it can be good to ignore the pool for a longer period of time after a failure.

If the specific combination for Eq150,5 + Nicehash + Gminer causes these issues frequently, it could be time to consider if this combination should be removed from the profit switcher.

Sorry I wasn't clear, the miners stop working until I manually start them, the other day I went to sleep and it failed after 1-2 hours, I received the offline email but it didn't wake me up(that's ok). Another day the same thing happened, I didn't see/check my email until noon, miners were idle for around 11 hours until I started them.
I just wanted to know if there was a way to troubleshoot this because it started happening with more than 1 algo/pool/software. It doesn't happen that often but I'd rather it kept mining by itself.

When you find the miners in this start, they are showing as "Interface offline" as you pointed out earlier? Not "Service Offline"? And when you look at the miner console window, the mining software is running but do nothing because of pool connection failure?

The Offline e-mail you received, was it from the Offline Detection rule?

Sorry for asking all these questions, I'm just trying to get as detailed understanding as possible of the scenario.
