Multi Algorithm Switcher for altcoin mining on nicehash in EthOS Includes Rigchecker to restart rig if a GPU crashes, and an autofan script which adjusts fans according to a range of temperatures.
Backup your local.conf before running this script. You may also choose to run force-local or comment out all the lines in remote.conf on your rig to prevent override from a remote config.
To get up and running, you need to do the following steps:
Backup local configuration files and disable remote config
Download the nicehashminer files
Create config.json file using sample config file and update with your info
Create config files using sample algorithm config files for desired algorithms you wish to mine
Update the config file to include your rig information and configured algorithm configs (you can add more configs as suit your needs)
Run the following commands:
cp /home/ethos/local.conf /home/ethos/local.backup.conf
cp /home/ethos/remote.conf /home/ethos/remote.backup.conf
force-local
Run the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/foraern/ethos-nicehash-autominer.git /home/ethos/ethos-nicehash-autominer
Update algorithm config files for algorithms you wish to include in the automining. You can copy the sample config files in the config-samples folder by copying into the /home/ethos/ethos-nicehash-autominer/configs folder.
For example, copy the equihash.conf file:
cp /home/ethos/ethos-nicehash-autominer/configs-sample/equihash.conf /home/ethos/ethos-nicehash-autominer/configs/equihash.conf
Update the config file:
custompanel <public><secret>
proxywallet <rig> <wallet>.worker1
loc <rig> worker1
Add more configs as suit your needs.
A sample configuration file has been provided named config-sample.json that can be used to help build your own config.json file.
Run the following the command to copy the sample config.sample.json into your production config.json file:
cp /home/ethos/ethos-nicehash-autominer/config.sample.json /home/ethos/ethos-nicehash-autominer/config.json
Update the following sections with your information:
Update the "ethos_url" with your ethOS Panel URL
Check https://whattomine.com to get hashrates for your mining rig
Populate "hashrates" with info for your configuration
Add to "configs" section with algorithms that match the algorithm config files created in the /home/ethos/ethos-nicehash-autominer/configs folder
Insert your token and user for pushover alerts (optional)
(crontab -l 2>/dev/null; echo "*/1 * * * * /home/ethos/ethos-nicehash-autominer/nicehashminer") | crontab -
(crontab -l 2>/dev/null; echo "*/1 * * * * /home/ethos/ethos-nicehash-autominer/autofan") | crontab -
Alternately, output from crontab to logfile (will automatically be rotated every 24 hours):
(crontab -l 2>/dev/null; echo "*/1 * * * * /home/ethos/ethos-nicehash-autominer/nicehashminer >> /home/ethos/ethos-nicehash-autominer/nicehashminer.log") | crontab -
(crontab -l 2>/dev/null; echo "*/1 * * * * /home/ethos/ethos-nicehash-autominer/autofan >> /home/ethos/ethos-nicehash-autominer/autofan.log") | crontab -
- For any additional coin you want to mine, add hashrate and a config file.
- Mine duration is the minimum time to mine on an algorithm in hours, if set to 0 it will immediately switch pools if it finds a more profitable one.
In nicehashminer is a list of factors for calculating profit, if you wish to add beyond those included, keep the following in mind:
h/s - 0.000000001
Kh/s - 0.000001
Mh/s - 0.001
