[ANN][BURST] Burst | Efficient HDD Mining | New 1.2.3 Fork block 92000

[n4ru]

The readme says "number of plots" is a commandline argument. I'm misunderstanding what exactly that number refers to. Number off GB in HDD space, something else? I'm trying to get my miner up and running but I'm lost here.

1 plot = 256KB of space

So take your target GB and multiply by 4096

Is this the expected output? It's stuck here and not moving further. I assume this is generating the plot?

Code:

C:\burst\burst-pool-miner>java -Xmx4000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate THEREISALONGNUMBERHERE 1 8191 8191 1
Generating from nonce: 1

Hmmm plotting is so slow. I am generating like 450GB plots per day using windows .
CPU : i7-7400MQ 2.4Ghz
4TB USB3.0 HDD.

Hmmm. Anyway to speed it up?

[n4ru]

I just want to make sure I have this set up correctly - here is what I've done.

I've downloaded the 1.0.3 client, and set up a wallet. I got 2 BURST from the faucet.

I did not generate a plot yet.

I downloaded "burst-pool-miner" from http://burst-pool.cryptoport.io/howto.html and followed the steps up to submitting but not including launching the miner on Windows (because I don't have a plot yet). After hitting submit I was taken to a page that looked like JSON output. I wasn't sure if I had to wait here for something?? I closed it. 1 BURST was deducted from my wallet.

Before launching the miner, I started creating a plot by running "C:\burst\burst-pool-miner>java -Xmx4000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate THEREISALONGNUMBERHERE 1 8191 8191 1". The only output I got/currently see is "Generating from nonce: 1" (it has been about 15 minutes now). Then I opened "run_mine.bat" and I see "{"baseTarget":"7909016","height":"9965","generationSignature":"7d7dc951c487affbdbb9491da132ad91638b93fb9e09a2f7ce994654198838b4"}" repeated over and over along with some read errors occasionally.

I currently have both those windows open.

Am I set up and running correctly?

You have time.
When is ready your plot is forever.
It's not much different when i was buying some asic and wait for shippment.
Almost 4-6 days.
Think the same way.
Like if you buy a lot and you have to wait the delivering.

Anyone else getting errors in mining? "akka.log-dead-letters-during-shutdown"

Yes, I was also getting this problem, so I stopped mining,
 I don't want to take risk to crash my PC for forever.

Yes, that's fine. It'll take a couple confirms of your registration before the pool accepts your work though.

Generating from nonce: 1

it will work but will go faster if you increase the last number, its the amount of core used on your CPU.. so set it to 3+ at least.
the next one should look something like

C:\burst\burst-pool-miner>java -Xmx4000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate THEREISALONGNUMBERHERE 1 8191 8191 1

if you get errors about memory change the second to last digit and/or the XmX4000m line, to say.. Xmx2000 and and the second to last to a number like 1024 or 2048

I just received an out of memory error with my original commandline input and it stopped. Should I use those 3 inputs in 3 separate cmd windows?

[Amph]

LOL i just discovered that you can simply copy-paste your plot and change the name of the start nonce, this mean no more plotting

they don't overlap lmao

I'm no expert on uray's pool, but I think you can ctrl-f for the stuff that comes after BURST- in your account id on http://burst-pool.cryptoport.io/

For anyone who wants to get into mining seriously - quit thinking about SATA ports and USB enclosures and crap and start thinking real hardware.

http://unixsurplus.com/product/sgi-3u-media-server-storage-16-hd-bay-sas-sata-ssd-san-array-35-nas-jbod-good
less than $200, comes with 16 drive sleds and supports SATA disks.
All you need is a external SAS hba, which runs you less than a hundred bucks on ebay.

BTW, you can daisy chain up to three enclosures in a row off of a single external SFF-8088 port.
You can easily fit 3 HBA's into most computers that will each have two SFF-8088 ports, which means you can run up to 18 enclosure off of a single box.
which is 288 disks per box.

oh, and they all run 3 gigabit SATA3 speeds.

This sounds like my kind of miner. How much power draw would a setup like this require?

I dont think this is possible

you will have the same information in the plot even after you changed the name so the result will be the same.. you won't find more blocks/shares that way, only the same ones you already have..

yeah it was my concern too, would have been too easy

edit the file run_generate and make sure these lines are in it

C:\burst\burst-pool-miner>java -Xmx1000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate YOUR_BURST_ADDRESS 0 81920 1000 3
C:\burst\burst-pool-miner>java -Xmx1000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate YOUR_BURST_ADDRESS 81921 81920 1000 3
C:\burst\burst-pool-miner>java -Xmx1000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate YOUR_BURST_ADDRESS 163842 81920 1000 3

pause

That will generate FOUR plot files at around 20Gb big and use 3 cores so the PC (should) still be useable.. when they are done you need to edit the run_generate and remove those that are done (otherwise it will re-create them) and add the new lines... and you should be able to figure out how it works by now

Got it.

How does mining while generating plots work? My plots folder has a file of 0kb size. How am I earning any BURST currently?

EDIT: nevermind, it's at nonce 1000 now. I assume it just mines using whatever nonces are available?

is there a merge utility for windows as of yet? what I like about thus coin is as your plotting and mining you see a noticable increase for example yesterday 250 bursts per 12 hr cycle of personal payouts. today after 25% more hdd 0lotted 500 burst in 2 hrs :-)

Hi,


if anyone can help me out, i got one of this nas http://www.seagate.com/external-hard-drives/network-storage/business/blackarmor-nas-440/

with 8tb, im just wondering if i could use it for mining?


Thanks in advance.

yes you can... map the share in windows as a mapped drive and good luck

Careful with the merge tool - if your plots were incomplete (i.e. you had to kill the plot generator before it completed the scheduled plot) and you don't rename the files properly to reflect their actual size, the merge tool will DELETE your existing plot files! Thankfully I only lost ~200 GB of plots...

EDIT: I should have said, careful with the .bat file commands that are suggested, since it includes a line that deletes the input files (even if there was no new output file).

lol i just lost a 1.5 tb file XD

Can someone made poker casino with burst payment or write to existing casinos to make possible to play with burst ?

[unsoindovo]

LOL i just discovered that you can simply copy-paste your plot and change the name of the start nonce, this mean no more plotting

they don't overlap lmao

WHAT ARE YOU SAYNG?

 

hum.. i think is not possible!

you buy the same tocket lottery N times..
but if the number come out, you win just one time!!!
so i think is just a waste of space
