Re: [Awesome Miner] - Powerful Windows GUI to manage and monitor up to 200000 miners
Hi Patrike,
First of all happy holidays to you and all the Awesomers!
Hi again. Thanks, you too!First of all happy holidays to you and all the Awesomers!
1. Is it possible to collect accumulated power usage data in the mining history of the managed (profit) miners? That would be helpful for me to gauge efficiency and negotiate hosting costs with off-site provider, and something like a hashrate graph but in power consumption would be a great bonus so I can visually present the case of no mining, no charge for unused electricity 
This isn't supported today, but I see your point that it would make sense to support.2. Since ZergPool was able to implement several CryptoNight variants into Yiimp mining, I find myself using XMRig at times to be included in profit switching (Btw, using Nvidia, I know, they are crappy for CN but doesn't hurt to have them in profit switcher), is it possible for you to add support for the JSON config section in the Profit Profile's software section like Claymore/SRBMiner, I hope you know what I was referring to, Right Click Miner -> Edit Profit Profile -> Mining Software Priority List -> Select Software in question -> Configure... where you got the override config.txt content if say you select SRBMiner.
3. Can it be corrected that when NanoMiner (mining RandomX) via CPU to show actual CPU power usage rather than the idle GPU stats?
Thanks for the suggestions. I will investigate.3. Can it be corrected that when NanoMiner (mining RandomX) via CPU to show actual CPU power usage rather than the idle GPU stats?
4. To your knowledge, do you know that if AM supports profit switching for the BlackMiner Mini(+) series? like if I get a few of them and if I can use the custom defined pool groups on them as I do with Managed Profit Miner GPU rigs? (I know the website states AM do support the F1 but was unsure about the other models).
5. If 4 is doable, another non-essential question would be if there are any method to add them (obviously in reasonable numbers) to AM if I was to host them behind a NAT, currently using NeoRouter for the VPN for remote miners, not sure what's the most efficient and uncomplicated way to add these standalone FPGA/ASIC in similar fashion.
Profit Switching of BlackMiner isn't supported today, but these devices can be monitored by Awesome Miner. I've promised another user (@STSMiner) to look into the profit switching for these miners.5. If 4 is doable, another non-essential question would be if there are any method to add them (obviously in reasonable numbers) to AM if I was to host them behind a NAT, currently using NeoRouter for the VPN for remote miners, not sure what's the most efficient and uncomplicated way to add these standalone FPGA/ASIC in similar fashion.
It's actually more the BlackMiner that doesn't support the standard pool prioritize commands and this is what the External Profit Switcher requires from an ASIC/FPGA in order to work. Awesome Miner would have to use SSH to reconfigure the pools and algorithms of this miner in order to do profit switching.
The typical way to add FPGA/ASIC miners is to use the Network Scan feature (via New Miner button in the toolbar) and scan for Cgminer using an IP address range. With the VPN connection, I assume it's possible for Awesome Miner to access these miners with a unique IP address for each miner?
