Firstly, thanks to Claymore for the improvements here! On most of my rx 470 4GB cards, I am seeing about a 3-4% increase in hash-rate!
However, I was hoping v11 would also alleviate an issue I've been seeing since starting to use v10.2 a while ago. For some reason, GPU 0 on all 4 of my rigs acts very strangely... most of the time hashing well below the others... fluctuating between 0 and 450, while the other 5 are right at the 700 mark. Now, if this were only on 1 rig I would think the GPU is going bad, but since it is the exact same GPU slot 0 on all 4 rigs, it is more likely some kind of setting that i need to tweak.
Has anyone else noticed this on their rigs? If so, any suggestions on how to fix it?
FYI: after just upgrading all 4 rigs to v11.0, GPUs 1-5 are hashing better by about 3-4% but GPU 0 is still bad on all 4. Although, it doesn't seem to be fluctuating as much... pretty much stuck at 232 on 3 rigs and weirdly, 120 on the 4th.
Any help resolving this would be much appreciated!
When Claymore miner starts, you will see GPU0 has a few less MB than other same cards.
Code:
GPU #0: Pitcairn, 1975 MB available, 20 compute units GPU #0 recognized as Radeon 270/270X GPU #1: Pitcairn, 1984 MB available, 20 compute units GPU #1 recognized as Radeon 270/270X GPU #2: Pitcairn, 1984 MB available, 20 compute units GPU #2 recognized as Radeon 270/270X GPU #3: Pitcairn, 1984 MB available, 20 compute units GPU #3 recognized as Radeon 270/270X
Try to lower the -h parameter for GPU0
Thanks a ton for that tip! even though my GPU 0 was showing exactly the same MB available as other 5 GPUs I still gave your method a shot. on startup, all were at -h value auto of 892, so I lowered GPU 0 to 812 as a test and it worked immediately! Got that card up to 672 (from 120)! I may play with it and inch up a bit but that's already a huge improvement! Now i will make that same change to my other rigs! Thanks again! Really appreciate it!
I'm glad to help !
Testing again and again when a card doesn't work like you think it should But sometimes a card is really lower than others : I have 2 Sph R9 290 ref board, one running at 700 H/s no matter how I overclock, the other at 810 H/s @1040/1500 . Flashing bios didn't help so far...
Anyway, if you feel like sending me some ETN, feel free to do so !

Hello, I've been running dashminer for a while on a single GPU system, and want to try it on a 8-GPU rig The program seems to run fine, showing near 650% , or 0.01 dash/day
I'm getting my hardware (6 x RX580) next week and I'm looking for what OS to use.
I've read a lot about modding the bios of the GPU and since I don't have accesss to a windows machine (except as a virtual machine) can SMOS take care of that for me or what should I do?
If I have two different kinds of RX580, anything special to think about or it's all automagical?
I'm using the R9 version, so maybe it's not true for RX. The atiflash tool located in /root/utils/atiflash. I think usage is same as DOS version :
Please would you enable scrolling when viewing the console via the Simplemining.net website? When you have +12 GPU's, not having the ability to scroll means my clients are unable to see all the info needed when using --peg options when mining Equihash.
4 posts above you have the exact answer to your problem
Why would i want to implement a temp solution which will need to be continuously re-applied with every single SMOS update? Hack jobs are fine when you have 1 or 2 machines.
The feature request was clear: enable scrolling when viewing the console via the Simplemining.net website.
SMOS is simple Writing a script to modify n rigs and centralize logs would not take a long time

How to save miner logs in SMOS ?
edit your /root/start.sh
modify line 16 like this : screen -L -dm -S miner bash -c "/root/utils/update_register.sh" &
now, all your screen output will be redirected to /home/miner/screenlog.0 so type : tail -f /home/miner/screenlog.0
and you will see the live output. in colors by the magic of gnu. Ctrl+C will get you back to shell.
Beware the file will grow fast, scp it somewhere and delete it periodically
You may have to edit the /root/start.sh file after SMOS updates

hello,
nicehash issues can be workedaround by adding this line to your hosts file:
127.0.0.1 cryptonight.usa.nicehash.com
claymore will quickly fail on this one and switch to miningpoolhub

Re: [Mining OS] SimpleMining.net - Easy to use GPU MINING Operating System
I found what was causing the issue. It wasnt any DDoS (cloudflare is ok) The cron backups of the database made too big write load on server and in some point the database just overloaded becasue of it I had two incidents and both started as backups kicked in. So i can 100% confirm that this was causing poblem.
Well done chef !

Re: [Mining OS] SimpleMining.net - Easy to use GPU MINING Operating System
Can someone help me? I've got 6 x rx 580 nitro+ but I can only run 4 when I put the 5th the program only recognize 4 and the rate of mining down. With 4 I am mining 124.5 mh/s but when I put 5 (only works 4) I am mining 82mh/s.
This is my SM config: -wd 1 -r 1 -epool stratum+tcp://eth-eu.dwarfpool.com:8008 -ewal $wallet/$name -esm 0 -epsw x -allpools 1 -mport -3333 -asm 1
And this is my OC SM: Core MHz: 1200 Memory MHz: 2250 Core Undervolting: 850 PowerStage: 3 Target cº: 64 Minimum Fan speed: 50
MotherBoard: Asus B250 Expert miminig Power supply: HXCorsair 1200i
With 4 graphics 640w from the wall so I dont thing that the problem is the power supply. any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Man this MB is just beautiful ! I didn't know about it , will definitely give it a try someday
When the system is up, open a terminal an type /root/utils/atitweak/atitweak -s to see what cards are detected by the OS. On my MB , ASRock 12xPciE, some cards don't show up if the MB power plugs are splitted from PSU (don't use Y cable on these).

Re: [Mining OS] SimpleMining.net - Easy to use GPU MINING Operating System
Just sent you an email. I set aside the day to convert all my rigs to SmOs and its down! Curious if there is a direct download link to at least get the usb's flashed and ready to go. Thanks
I've got problem when changing miner and options at this time, so the rig cannot work. i found no idea about this maintenance except a "simple notification" lol
here what i have done briging my rig back:
1. logging in my rig with putty via ssh, using root account 2. editing /home/miner/config.json (remember replacing "/" by "\/") 3. reboot the rig
Thank you for this one
Also adding :
127.0.0.1 simplemining.net
in your /etc/resolv.conf so the SMOS connection check won't try too hard
