I still don't understand why you always choose to answer only some of the questions, specially the ones that are not uncomfortable for you. There have been 5-6 people asking you to implement OhGodAnETHlargementPill as a button, or something else that doesn't need ssh, and you didn't even bother to answer(estimation, negative, affirmative, NOTHING)....

I simply can not understand....

Hi,

I tried "OhGodAnETHlargementPill-r2" with my 6 x 1080ti, but I only went from 35Mh/s to 40Mh/s. Anyone else in my case ?

Mystery solved !
It seems I had a very old version of SimpleMining on this rig since it was running for a very long time. So I flashed a newer version and now I go from 35MH/s to 51Mh/s. Excellent !

Hello,

How did you manage to use OhGodAnETHlargementPill-r2 on smos?

Thanks

1. You need to connect to your rig with ssh.
2. Open a screen with : screen
3. Type : sudo /root/utils/OhGodAnETHlargementPill -revA 0,1,2,3 (where 0, 1, 2, 3 are the ids of the GPU)
4. Detach the screen with : Ctrl + A + D (so it can run in background in the screen)



Could there be a way to do it from dashboard, in the future? I do not want to open ports to access rigs through ssh...

Thank you in advance, tytanik.

You prommised me and my buddy miners(we have 96 rigs in total, on your service), that in maxim 2 weeks we will have last ccminer. 1 month later, still no ccminer, and no update about it.

Great service, thanks.

So my rig stopped mining, and it seemed to have nothing to do with the server being down.

I decided to hook a monitor to my rig to see if could find out anything. And after booting the SMOS displays this message over and over "There is no screen attached matching miner".
Any ideas what this really means?
Mostly it means that system cant find any GPU or process didnt started.
IF you have one gpu then check if it is connected, meaby something unplugged ?
Or it could be problem with riser.
You can enter command: lspci
that will list your devices. Check if you will see AMD or NVIDIA there.

Thx for answer.
I tried different risers/cards, and tried running only 1 card to, with the same result.
I also booted on an Ubuntu pendrive and checked lspci command, and GPU shows up. Monitor is connected through GPU to, all works fine.

It's strange. The rig had been working fine for weeks, until I decided to reduce power limit to the same as my Win 10 rig with similar Nvidia 1070TI gpus, then it started acting strange with sudden adjustments to core clocks causing the rig to sometimes freeze(I posted about this a page or two back). It could be running perfectly fine for a few hours, then it suddenly clocked up by itself and froze.

Could it be something wrong with the SMOS config causing it to not start up properly? Perhaps I should do a fresh install on pendrive again.

edit: Re installing/flashing OS to pendrive fixed it. Woohoo.

Ok this is getting weird. Am I getting hacked or what is going on  Huh

After reflashing SMOS my miner was perfectly stable for 2 days mining zCash.
But suddenly I saw it stop reporting to pool again and I check simplemining.net to see what's going on.
There it says it's mining cryptonight algo  Huh in the console, and the core clocks have been adjusted up a bit.
Changing rig group settings and overclocking settings have no effect now and rebooting(cold boot) does not help.

I'm reflashing OS to pendrive again to see if it helps again  Tongue

Hey! I have the same problem since today. 1 of my rigs changes to cryptonight. I think we were hacked or something, i can't change back to equihash.

Do you guys use 2FA for login?

I can't either but the pool shows I'm mining

Yes, all good with mining, but I would like to be able to access my rigs....

@tytanick: Will you implement hsrminer(neoscrypt miner) or a good lyra2v2 miner for nvidia any time soon? These algorithms are best for 1080ti most of the times, and smos does not have the bets miners for it...
Me and a lot of my miner friends are thinking in going back to windows...

At least, post an ETA: Like, in 2 weeks, in 2 months, never...etc


Thank you!

Hi all,

Can anybody recommend a LGA 1151 mainboard which is running 8 (nvidia) GPUs with SMOS?
The mainboards specially designed for mining purposes are all sold out so I'd like to know if maybe a ASUS Z270P would work.

I have spent hours in trying to get a 7-8 GPU setup work with a MSI Z170A with SMOS. The best I can achieve is 3 GPUs. Angry

Thank you in advance!

I currrently have 8 GPU's on ASUS z270-a, ASUS z270-p and ASUS B250H, They all working flawlesly. You can take your pick.

Ummm...Changedmy mobo from asus z270-p to asus z270-a, using the same usb stick, and on dashboard i have a new rig why?

That is exactly why - because you changed the motherboard.
Man that was fast:)). Thank you, sorry for the dumb question then:). any idea on the pcie order on asus z270-a, have 8 gpus

I have a z270-a too. Din't bother to check the pcie order....Why would you need it? You can see and configure everything you need based on the dashboard information.
Cuz i have a Frankenstein rig
3x armor 570 hynix
1x armor 570 elpida
2x pulse 580 hynix
1x pulse 580 elpida
1x pulse 570 elpida
Smiley

Damn, that is a complex rig Smiley I would suggest, maybe adjust oc settings slowly until you find the perfect setup.

One tip is: From what I saw, first 3 PCI-e are 16x ones, taken from the CPU down. Rest, I don't know.

I am having some issues messing with the OC settings on my smOS 8x1060 rig.  It seems when I try to change the clock or memory settings either with a single setting for all cards or individually, that it doesn't update as its not reflected in the Core/Mem column after I do it.  The only way I can modify the output of the cards is to increase the power to the cards.  Currently I'm running at 100W to each card just to get up to 2300sol/s for Equihash.  I'd like to be able to OC each card's settings accordingly on a lower power setting if possible, or leave the power setting as is and increase the output with the OC.

For example, here is the Core/Mem Column before adjustment:
1860 1860 1860 1847 1860 1860 1885 1936 (100)
3802 3802 3802 3802 3802 3802 3802 3802

Then in the OC tab I added 1100 (I've tried lower numbers as well) to the Mem settings and it didn't look like anything changed:
1847 1873 1860 1860 1873 1898 1898 1936 (100)
3802 3802 3802 3802 3802 3802 3802 3802

Also, that's 7 ASUS 1060 cards and 1 Gigabyte 1060 (all 3GB), but looks like the Gigabyte has much higher clock speed (and it's temp is always ~10C less than the others).  I'm sure I could bump up the output on that card with some OC.

I saw someone say if the OC tab isn't working that you might need to delete then re-install rig.  This makes me a little nervous, do I just delete it from the dashboard and it will automatically pop back up in the dashboard again when I restart it?



Yes, that is exactly what will happen! If you have no other option, then go ahead and do it. I assure you, the rig will appear again on your dashboard, like it did first time, with noname attached to it.

I also assure you I had the OC thing happen to me too, like 1.5 months ago, and I fixed it like this, after I tried many other stuff, troubleshooting for like 4 hours.

I have the same issue, and tried to delete the rig as per Radu's advice, and it popped back up as a noname rig afterwards, but it didn't fix the OC issue. No matter what I do it seems the Core/Mem and temperature are stuck. Anyone have any other suggestions - please?

Are you OC'ing both core and mem in the same time? OC does not work unless you have some numbers in each column...

You always look for list of GPU's in Core/Mem column. You can also check there when a GPU is not working, cause it's memory and core drops to three figure numbers(most of the time), when it's faulty.

In the miner program(console) you can check the speed and adjust, if not happy with it.

Always combine core/mem column with miner program, to see what numbers you get.

Thanks Radu!

I've made the following adjustments in the OC settings:

Core MHz: 150,150,150,150,-50,-50

Memory MHz:600,600,600,600,1150,1150

Power Limit (watt):70,70,70,70,98,98

Target Temperature ℃:65
Minimum Fan speed %:50

The Core/Mem column in the RigList says this, which is why I have assumed the two last cards are the 1070's (even though I'm a bit pussled by the lower numbers for those cards here, but as they stand out as a pair I'm assuming that's them there):

1961 1974 1949 1961 1797 1771 (70,70,70,70,98,98)
4100 4100 4100 4100 4100 4100

I'm still getting pretty much the same results in the console as previously:

So, what am I missing here - pretty please....? :-)



Hmm, from what i'm seeing, maybe OC tab isn't working...There is no way you can OC 1070's to +1050 memory...I have EVGA's and they go max +650. Also, the Temp is still high, even though you set it not more than 70℃.

My suggestion is: Try to delete rig and re-add it to simplemining.net...

Hi all,

I got my first rig up and running a couple of days ago, and have noticed that the different GPU's are reporting very different speeds in the console, here's a typical excerpt:

========== Sol/s: 1729.1 Sol/W: 2.57 Avg: 1754.6 I/s: 933.9 Sh: 7.26 0.99 50
GPU3 75C Sol/s: 327.6 Sol/W: 2.84 Avg: 326.5 I/s: 174.9 Sh: 1.33 0.99 55
GPU4 75C Sol/s: 295.6 Sol/W: 2.71 Avg: 296.4 I/s: 155.2 Sh: 1.17 1.00 44
GPU2 75C Sol/s: 150.3 Sol/W: 1.32 Avg: 151.4 I/s: 81.1 Sh: 0.66 0.98 43
GPU0 74C Sol/s: 205.2 Sol/W: 1.78 Avg: 204.0 I/s: 109.1 Sh: 0.86 0.99 48
GPU1 75C Sol/s: 333.5 Sol/W: 2.86 Avg: 328.2 I/s: 175.7 Sh: 1.39 0.99 50
GPU5 76C Sol/s: 443.1 Sol/W: 3.91 Avg: 448.1 I/s: 239.3 Sh: 1.84 1.00 43
========== Sol/s: 1755.4 Sol/W: 2.57 Avg: 1754.6 I/s: 935.2 Sh: 7.26 0.99 47
GPU3 74C Sol/s: 325.5 Sol/W: 2.84 Avg: 326.5 I/s: 174.9 Sh: 1.33 0.99 55
GPU4 75C Sol/s: 292.5 Sol/W: 2.71 Avg: 296.4 I/s: 156.6 Sh: 1.17 1.00 54
GPU2 75C Sol/s: 150.4 Sol/W: 1.32 Avg: 151.4 I/s: 81.2 Sh: 0.66 0.98 60
GPU0 74C Sol/s: 209.0 Sol/W: 1.78 Avg: 204.0 I/s: 109.1 Sh: 0.86 0.99 48
GPU1 75C Sol/s: 324.0 Sol/W: 2.86 Avg: 328.2 I/s: 175.8 Sh: 1.39 0.99 51

========== Sol/s: 1739.1 Sol/W: 2.57 Avg: 1754.6 I/s: 936.9 Sh: 7.26 0.99 51

The rig is still a work in progress as I'm waiting for parts, but it is currently running four Palit 1060 6GB cards and two Palit 1070 OC cards. It seems like two of the cards, GPU2 and GPU0, are seriously underperforming at 150-200 Sol/s, so I'd really appreciate all advice and pointers in the right direction for the best way to improve this.

My OC settings in SMOS are currently set to this, based on recommendations in the SMOS guidelines:

Core MHz: 150

Memory MHz: 600

Power Limit (watt): 115

Target Temperature ℃: 70
Minimum Fan speed %: 50

I'm not sure if I understand correctly how OC'ing works yet, but I've seen mention of making individual OC'ing settings, like "140, 150, 130..." etc. - am I supposed to do this to tweak each individual card to it's max efficiency?

I did one attempt at setting up such a comma-separated string and saved the settings, and the miner restarted, but I did get pretty much the same results in the console, so that's why I feel very much in doubt about the right direction ahead.

All advice would be very much appreciated - advance thanks! :-)



 

Hello astrosmurf,

GPU's are different, you need to find the sweet spot for each one, by separating OC values.

Your temperatures are a bit too high, I suggest staying below 70℃

Also, I don't know much about 1060's, but from my knowledge, they run at max 80w, while 1070's can be operated at 110w, so make sure you separate power as well, for better efficiency.

Happy mining
Radu

The scan for errors is fine, it pops up on my usb's with smos on too.

Yes, you should be upgrading your MB bios to latest.

About the GPU list, once it boots, you can play with it and realise fast which one's which.
