Mining the same 1 pool from multiple computers
-
@Xander52 Only way to avoid the penalty is to use a single PC, or perhaps submit your Deadlines through a proxy? However the penalty is quite small (-0.001 on each submission) so you could just ignore it?

@haitch @RichBC I was talking with tross and he said that they got rid of penalty, and they had not removed that from the info yet.

I've recently started mining the same pool from multiple computers
pool.burstcoin.eu I'm not sure how i even check that both are making it to the pool correctly. Jminer says it confirmed and so does blago on the second computer.However I noticed my total TB on the historic side has gone down form 7.5 - 6 (i moved 1.5 TB). I know that's an estimate though but... then it suggests I'm not getting the deadlines from the 1.5TB version to the pool?
The one computer is using blagos the other is using jminer I can't seem to see how to setup proxy on jminer thus should i just enable it on blago and change jminers pool to be my second computer? Or am I overcomplicating this
-
Make it easy on yourselves and use proxy on one computer and point your other miners to proxy IP .. It will report full capacity to pool!
-
@WHATSHENANIGANS Jminer has no proxy feature, only blago miner...
-
Ya i think ill do that does
jminer have a proxy setting? i cant seem to seeit or should i just setup jminer-> blago-> poolas opposed to blago->jminer-> poolthanks gpedro ill have to do jminer->blago-> pool then or be not lazy some weekend and see if i can add it to the jminer.
-
@gpedro so use Blago's
-
@WHATSHENANIGANS Why are you using jminer? is a 32bit OS? to use the proxy feature you should have the blago miner open in the two PC's...
-
@WHATSHENANIGANS Once you have all the proxy's running restart the host and refresh the pool page it will usually update hot many TB are being reported. You get all the submissions its just a cosmetic thing.
-
i find the jminer is much faster on my main computer however i may have to just jump to blagos on both.Running blagos on both now seems fine found some small overlaps in my plots must have done my math incorrectly there
-
@all Would love to learn this method. Right now I have 3 computers with each firing up blago miner and pointing to 1 pool.
If I understand this correctly computer one will run an instance of blago pointed to the pool.
Computer 2 &3 wil run an instance of blago but pointed to the ip adress of computer 1?
-
@Burstde You can do it either way. Depending on the pool you use, and whether they implement a penalty for submitting a worse DL than the best one you've submitted, going directly to the pool is easiest.

seems for clarify I need use in miner a word "aggregator", not a "proxy"?

@luxe
One problem with this picture: Default settings for local wallet (Rig#1) in the "nxt.default.properties" is to listen to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 8125. Blago's miner on network computers (Rig#2, 3) will not start or will crash as it cannot connect to Wallet's API server (Rig#1).
Changing API server to listen to 0.0.0.0 will cause "Cannot connect to server" error, even when combined with "allowedBotHosts" parameter.
My workaround was to update info from proxy address (Rig#1 port 8126) or the Pool address (i.e: "UpdaterAddr": pool.burstcoin.io port 8124)
-
@rnahlawi
also for Rig#2, 3 you may use address and port "proxy"
"UpdaterAddr" : "192.168.1.1",
"UpdaterPort": "8126",
-
I think aggregator would be a better choice of word. proxy sort of threw me off when i was reading through the config file
-
@rnahlawi I know this is old but I hope you are still around. When I set up the proxy on Computer B, I am able to save the miner.conf file, no problems, however, when I then start burst client and click, start mining, it changes the conf file back to pool.burstcoing.sk. Do I have to change the reward assignment or something else? Thanks!
-
@cannabisdreams No you have to change the conf file again, then start the miner from the same folder you changed the conf file... When you start the miner from the AIO client it overwrite the conf file... ;D
-
@gpedro Thank you!! I had to download the miner v1.6, the AIO (ver 1.0) did not work as a stand alone. Then I had an error finding my plots file... it was under C:\burst\plots instead of c:\plots... got it all figured out and now it seems to be working perfectly. Thank you again!
Damn, I was wrong, it went right back to the pool address. Should I uninstall burst client? and start over with v1.6?
