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

[patrike]

Is this for nVidia? If this is the case, could you please run the following command on Ubuntu and share the output with me:

Code:

nvidia-smi --query-gpu=name,power.draw --format=csv,noheader,nounits

This command should display the reported power usage.

cpu3900x@3900x:~$ nvidia-smi --query-gpu=name,power.draw --format=csv,noheader,nounits
GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER, 125.33
GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER, 125.06

Thanks, this is good information. I will correct the problem in the next release.

NBMiner on ETH has multiple stratum support. But AM is defaulting to the proxy stratum, can you set AM to not define the statum-proxy:// part of the url and instead use the entire url as defined in the pool config?

What Awesome Miner do today for NbMiner in case of ETH mining is to replace any "stratum" string in the URL with "ethproxy" in the pool url that typically looks like stratum+tcp://poolurl.
Can you please give an example of the complete URL you are using? If it doesn't contain the string "stratum" it shouldn't be modified.

Actual Pool URL : stratum+tcp://eth.2miners.com:2020
But it be being converted to a ethproxy url which the pool rejects as invalid.

NBMiner supports for ETH mining :
nicehash+tcp://
ethproxy+tcp://
stratum+tcp://

I think AM should take the URL as is from pool config, so that the user can configure the miner as required instead of locking to ethproxy.

Need an option to "Reboot and show progress (via SSH)", similar to "Reboot and show progress (via web)".

Will be very useful to see if reboot actually succeeded, since sometimes miners don't even respond to ssh.

Thanks!

I'm planning to make a design change to how Default Pools and Reboot works in the next release. I will include "Reboot and show progress" as well based on your feedback.
Today there are "via web" and "via SSH" operations. From now on it will only be a single operation. If Web or SSH should be used is instead defined in the Properties of the External Miner, Advanced section.

This makes it possible to have a mix of ASIC miners, some that has SSH and others with only Web, and you can perform a single operation on all of them. Depending on how the External Miner is configured, it will use either the Web or SSH method for the specific miner.

Thanks!

Also had another request for Cloud UI. It currently shows only top 8 coins and top 8 algorithms on the Dashboard. It would be nice if it showed all or maybe 12-15.

hello
any news about to modify hashrate with current or average hashrate within a rule command or automatically (option) when switching ?
if possible ? :-) thanks in advance

Thanks for the input on this. However, if I no longer will adjust "stratum" to "ethproxy" for NbMiner Ethereum, most other pools will fail instead. For most users using pools with stratum+tcp://, and if these are not automatically changed to ethproxy for NbMiner Ethereum, it would fail and not be easy to understand why. If 2miners.com is the exception, I can handle that specific case instead.

I agree this would me a nice feature. What would make it a bit complicated is if you are running a mix of GPUs. What should be saved to the Profit Profile - the first GPU only (given that the profile represents a single GPU)? And additional feedback on this is of course appreciated as well. Many thanks!

Hi Patrike,

Question about GPU OC Group Profiles:

If i save a GPU OC Groupe, it will create a Group for the Rig and sorted the GPU profiles by GPU ID, but i think the better way is to sorted by PCI Bus ID, because if a GPU died, the order will be change.
So better way is to sorted it by PCI BUS, i know i can change it after saving, but i think this not comfortable. Maybe AM can ask us, when i save a GPU OC Group, what we want, sorted by GPU ID or sorted by PCI BUS ID.

Hello. This is a good point. There are a few design changes I need to do to support saving with PCI Bus ID instead, but your request is noted. Once implemented, I think PCI Bus ID should be the new default way of saving these profiles.

still looking for anyone that has gotten AM to work with Innosilicon miners - specifically the A6 - I tried the instructions for the A4/A5 but made zero progress. So, either it doesnt work or I just dont understand it - entirely possible.

Just to make sure I understand case correctly - you are able to use the file editor 'vi' to open the configuration file? But from there on you are not able to make any changes?
Did you try to use the 'i' key once the file is opened in order to make it possible to type text and make modifications?

I tried everything nothing happens, nothing opens. Not sure what it is supposed to do. I have never had any innosilicon miners - I will try looking on youtube. The miner is working great, I just cant get it be picked up by AM.

Hi, After upgrading to this Development version, I can no longer define a pool coin on my managed profit miners? It's greyed out. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi, After upgrading to this Development version, I can no longer define a pool coin on my managed profit miners? It's greyed out. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I will correct this in the next release. The purpose was only to prevent it for some of the predefined pools where the coin shouldn't be changed (as it would only cause problems).

As a workaround, it should be possible for you to go to the Options dialog, Pools section, to select the coin for your pool.

Thanks for the works around Patrike.

Hi Patrike,

SRBMULTIMINER 0.4.7 work not correct with Awesomeminer. AM write the Pool information in the config file, but if SRBMultiminer start with config file, it ignore every commandline argument. So if i set --disable-gpu in commandline it will not start because no suiteable gpu found or it will mine with all gpu´s. I must set "disable_gpu" : true in the config file on every rig.
Maybe it is better to start SRBMultiminer only with commandline or can you add a tab to configurate the config file like XMRig or Nanominer?

Hi and thanks for the feedback.
I will have to look into this as in the past everything couldn't be set via the command line and using a configuration file was the only way for Awesome Miner to get things to work.

Is it me or did the stats go away with the latest update?

IE: Summary tab at the bottom all the way to the right... accepted, shares, best, diff, etc area.

Hi Patrik,



in the "Profit Profile Properties" in "Batch Commands" there seems to be a bug.

The 1st field "Before starting the mining software" is working with no problems.
But the 2nd and 3rd field "Before..." and "After..." isnt working. Everything inside will not be executed, no matter if its a bat.file or just a command with or without "". I have marked the "Administrator privileges", but have not tested without, because I need the admin.

In my example above in the picture and to make it work, I have to execute the taskkill-task in the 1st field "Before starting..." in each of the algorithms. Instead of just execute the task in the 2nd/3rd field "Before/After stopping" just in the ETH-miner. Can you please check this?

Also I have a question about the fields:
Will AM execute each line in the fields separately or just all as one line? Or in other words: Can I put a whole bat.file into the fields and it will work?

P.S. Thank you for the last AM update with the action override function. This is so great!

RELEASE NOTES:

User interface
  - Summary tab for a miner has been reorganized to give a better overview


Patrike there is a problem with the new reorganized summary tab on 4:3 screen. It will not show all informations, especially the "mining details"



On another screen with 16:9, there is no problem.

[joseph32]

And some more questions  

Is it possible to add in the Rules a Trigger like "Detect miners name"? So I could create a rule to detect the "Mining State" and if a specific miner like T-Rex is running and execute some actions because of this.
And maybe is it possible to also detect a running task? So i could do a rule to kill it, like killing a task in the Task-Manager. If this is possible, maybe you also can do a taskkill action, so we dont have to do it with the Run Executable action.

Thanks and all the best to you!
