Is there a way to setup awesomeminer to exclude some coins from mining on pools with auto switch ? I have a rig with nvidia 1060 x3 and one 970 card, so 970 is kinda sucks with ETH and ETC mining, it gives only 7MH/s instead of 24MH/s but it's good with young ether forks. So now i have to completely disable ethereum algo from mining for this rig because if Ethereum is most profitable coin for now then my rig working on it only with 70MH/s instead of 90MH/s.
So how to disable 2 specific coins for that rig ?
You can't exclude specific coins out of the box, because that's not how pools like Zpool work. You can exclude whole algorithms though. You can uncheck the Ethash algorithm from your profit profile, then it will not switch to that at all.
Now, there is a way to exclude specific coins, but you have to manually setup each individual coin's pool URL and port in individual stand alone pools, then bunch them together in a pool group... then tell AM to use the custom pool group to profit switch against. It's a little bit of work to setup the individual coins as individual pools... which is why sites like Zpool make it easier to just mine the algorithm... and AM just leverages this auto-switching ability.
I guess could make this a feature suggestion/request to Patrike such that in the future you could be able to specify for individual miners which Online Services/Custom Pools it uses, with a check/uncheck all button. Since right now the Online Services applies to all miners...that essentially is specifying individual pools manually, but even then, we cannot yet (I can't find it) pick individual pools for Managed Profit Miners.
