Re: [OS] nvOC Community Release free-easy-to-use Linux Nvidia Mining

@Rumo it could be better to implement a translation function which maps whatever algorithm value WTM reports to something more manageable. For example we may want to strip whatever is not alphanumeric and then switch it to uppercase. Then we should rename BEAM into EQUIHASH_1505. This will fix any similar future algo name issues.

Thats true. But for now thats a workaround for mining beam on nicehash.

I thought it is usefull. If not just ignore it.

Hi Papampi

Thanks for mention me in your WTM Script ;-)

If someone like to mine BEAM with wtm switcher you should change the WTM_SWITCHER script from

Code:
# filter WTM coins by user selection only
for i in data:
    if data[i]["tag"] == "NICEHASH":
       data[i]["tag"] = "NICE_" + data[i]["algorithm"].upper()

for i in filter(lambda x: data[x]["tag"] not in includedCoins, data):
    data.pop(i)


to

Code:
# filter WTM coins by user selection only
for i in data:
    if data[i]["algorithm"] == "Equihash (150,5)":
       data[i]["algorithm"] = "BEAM"

    if data[i]["tag"] == "NICEHASH":
       data[i]["tag"] = "NICE_" + data[i]["algorithm"].upper()

for i in filter(lambda x: data[x]["tag"] not in includedCoins, data):
    data.pop(i)


Hope this helps

Hi Guys

Pap your WTM switch is not switching after the clean setup from the self expanding image. Script is running and tells me i switch from bla to bla but nothing happens in the miner window.

Any ideas?

greetings

I think i found the problem

Code:
if  [[ $ALGO_SPECIFIC_OC == "NO" && $plusCPU == "NO" ]] || [[ $ALGO_SPECIFIC_OC == "YES"  &&  $CURRENT_COIN_ALGORITHM == $TOP_COIN_ALGORITHM ]]; then

elif [[ $ALGO_SPECIFIC_OC == "YES"  &&  $CURRENT_COIN_ALGORITHM != $TOP_COIN_ALGORITHM ]]; then



I use $plusCPU but not $ALGO_SPECIFIC_OC. So there is no way the Switch can work.

I tried to mine SIBcoin. However, I see the "Stratum authentication failed" in the screen.

I used all defaults and the pool by default is sib.suprnova.cc:3458, intensity is set to 21.
I didn't modify worker name or anything else.
Suprnova seems to support anonymous mining on some coins (a few equihash ones) However, I'm not sure about SIB coin.  I might need to create an account.

Anyone wanna comment?

nvOC version community 2.0

As far as i know Suprnova not supports anonymous mining. You need a account and you need to create the workers first on their website. Without the right worker you can not mine on Suprnova.

I was having some issues this week with some pools and decide to rewrite the code for pool check in watchdog, it was supposed to be in v19-2.0 but we let it slide for that time.

It works almost same as network check but instead of checking for network it checks for pool and wait if its unreachable to prevent miner restart and eventually rig restarts.
Then After I wrote it I thought why wait and waste time when we can switch to an alternate pool
So I rewrite it again to add an alternate pool in 1bash whether its supported by the miner or not.
What left to do is to check the first pool and switch back as soon as it becomes available.


So here is my question:
How important it is for you guys to have an alternate pool?
And how important it is to switch back to main pool?


I'm asking this because I wrote the code for myself and to make it work with rest of miners and coins it needs more changes so I don't want to work on something not so useful Wink

It's clear that luckpool has had a lot of hits this week. They probably have lower fee than elsewhere but their servers seem unstable, so I decided to go elsewhere, even if it costs me a little more fee.
When I look at MPH and the number of pools they have and I have never had a single break with them, all I can switch home, I rock it.

I also had troubles with Nicehash who all of a sudden Wednesday night began to refuse my connections to their servers ... So I created a ticket home and removed nicehash from my list of WTM switch ...

Your proposal to send to another alternative pool is a good idea, but I have another one: Why not try the second corner directly in the WTM list.

Obviously this only works for those who use WTM_Switch, but it must be possible to combine both a second pool and a second coin with or without the SWITCH WTM.

I would love to have it now because ZPOOL is down and my riggs shouting at me.

I'm sorry Rumo, but you should wait a bit longer, as its better to wait and have a bug free code than get it sooner with some bugs that could cause problems.
The code is almost done, I'm working on an update script so users dont need to redo their 1bash and the update script do it for them, and thats writing a script to edit so many coins so its a long long update script Wink

But I will send you a pre-release so you can test it when its done.

Cool Stuff. Thanks.

Hi Papampi. I think ( from my point of view ) you should add a test for checking the Pool2 and Port2 variable. In your script if the variable is empty an error comes up. If you place
"if [ -z $variable to test ]
then"

in front of your script you can prevent that.

I want to mine to miningpoolhub and everything worked fine under v0019 1.0. As I am trying to figure out I wonder what is the best method to restart the mining process since I am tired of rebooting the whole machine...


MiningPoolHub twittert some problems with the pool. Please try another one.

To restart the mining process you can restart the console window. There is no need to reboot the machine.

To your experience, are these type of crashes HW, SW or it could be anything?
The only reason i had so far for a full freeze was if i OC the first card a little bit to much. Try to lower the OC settings for your GPU0 a little bit.
The problem is that it's happening even when I am not overclocking the rig, i.e.:

POWERLIMIT_WATTS=100
   
__CORE_OVERCLOCK=0
MEMORY_OVERCLOCK=0

The rig has 12 GTX 1060 6Gb (from different manufacturers)

Do you have Maxximus007_AUTO_TEMPERATURE_CONTROL="YES"? If no maybe your card is getting to hot.

Do you have damNmad_ALGO_SPECIFIC_OC="NO"? If it is YES your core overclock setting not applied.  

You can try to change the first card. Just exchange the riser from your primary pcie slot with another one.

I have a rig that is crashing every 3 to 4 hours and I cannot pinpoint the reason why.
The crash affects somehow the ethernet interface (or maybe the TCP/IP stack), and the rig becomes unreachable by ssh and doesn't respond to pings.
It basically needs to be reset manually. This is quite annoying as I live several hours away from where I have the rigs.

Is there a way on how to investigate the crash and how to find a solution?

We are working on adding a reset network manager or reboot if rig cant access router to watchdog.
Hopefully it will be added to v0019-2.0 soon.

v0019-2.0 is almost done, just some last edits to watchdog, then we will announce it.
This is great!! nvOC is becoming by far the best Linux mining distro (better than commercial ones). I am really amazed by your work guys.

I tried your adaptations in the scripts as explained, but when I restart 3main, I do not see the occurrences nicehash founie by the site WTM appear in the list displayed by the papampi script.

I noted that WTma changed the "_" to "-" between the word nicehash and the word of each algorithm. So I modified your code as well in the WTM_AUTO_SWITCH file:

Code:
# filter WTM coins by user selection only

for i in reversed (data):
     if i ["tag"] == "NICEHASH":
        i ["tag"] = "NICE-" + i ["algorithm"]. upper ()

for i in reversed (data):
     if i ["tag"] not in includedCoins:
        data.remove (i)

Do you have any idea why I do not see the nicehash lines in the list of corners sorted by the papampi script?

EDIT : I also modified

NICE_SKUNKHASH;NICE_EQUIHASH;NICE_ETHASH;NICE_NEOSCRYPT;NICE_X11GOST;NICE_CRYPTONIGHT;NICE_LYRA2REV2

into

NICE-SKUNKHASH;NICE-EQUIHASH;NICE-ETHASH;NICE-NEOSCRYPT;NICE-X11GOST;NICE-CRYPTONIGHT;NICE-LYRA2REV2

in replacing the uderscores by hyphen/dash in WTM coin selection to the WTM coins in 1bash, i did the same replacements in the 3main associated launching minner's softwares comamnd lines. (what i placed a the end of file.

I don't know why fredeq changed "_" to "-"

If you use "-" in bash you have to cover it properly. So just don't do it. If you use my code as it was please have a look to the WTM.json file. Maybe NICE_SKUNKHASH;NICE_EQUIHASH;NICE_ETHASH;NICE_NEOSCRYPT;NICE_X11GOST;NICE_CRYPTONIGHT;NICE_LYRA2REV2 was not included in the file properly.

for i in reversed (data):
     if i ["tag"] not in includedCoins:
        data.remove (i)

will remove every coin that is not in the list.

hope this helps.

1bash wtm link should be changed and 3main and PAPAMPI_WTM should be restarted both so the change affected in switch

For those who will ask how to restart them both, not you  Wink
Code:
pkill -f PAPAPMPI
pkill -f 3main

pkill -f PAPAPMPI  Grin  Shocked  Cry You Linux guys are quite radical.

is CTRL-C in the remote screen that bad ?

with CTRL-C you can stop the miner or other scripts but you can not restart 3main or kill the screen as far as i know.

I do ctrl-C in the miner screen all of the time to restart it. I said kill the miner in my previous post, I just didn't say how. Either way, the watchdog detects low utilization and restarts 3main eventually.

That's right. But it takes time for the watchdog to detect the problem and restart 3main. If you restart the console its instant.

Hello, have some newbie questions.

1) Is ZM's miner not working in nv0019-1.3? EWBF works great but every time I attempt to use the dstm it doesn't work. Either it says "this screen is terminating" and then it eventually reboots from low gpu utilization or it says "no miner has been attached to this screen."

2) Is there a way to execute setting changes done in 1bash without rebooting?

Thank you

Regarding 1, as best I recall, there was a problem with ZM in 19.1.3 where either the location or the name of the ZM miner in /home/m1/zec/zm was out of sync with what is being called in 3main. I don't have that version handy or else I would check for you. If you go back several pages in this forum, I am sure it is discussed in detail there. As for 2, the way I do it is to kill the miner screen and wait on the watchdog to see that and kill/restart 3main. However, that can take about as long as rebooting depending upon if you are on USB or SSD.

Hope this helps.

I'm not sure if i doing it right but the fastest way i know is just close the console and start a new one. Not the green Guake terminal. The black standard terminal. It kills the miner and restarts mining.

Help me !
I can't minning Zen coin with zen.suprnova.cc

Worker Name : sown

Worker Login : sown.1

COIN="ZEN"

ZEN_WORKER="sown"
ZEN_ADDRESS="sown.1"
ZEN_POOL="zen.suprnova.cc"
ZEN_PORT="3618"

only pool suprnova.cc can't work

If sown is your nova user and 1 is your worker just use
Code:

ZEN_WORKER="1"
ZEN_ADDRESS="sown"


I think your username is not sown.1 at suprnova pool.

My local dealer has these cards
Any one has experience with any of them?

1- GIGABYTE P106
2- ASUS MINING P106
3- MSI P106-100 MINER



Any differences or better just go with cheapest price?


I use ASROCK H110 PRO BTC and I'm happy with it. 12 1070 Palit cards. But please write a review about the cards and the board.
