lolMiner Extra Parameters (English)

Extra parameters (Dual Mining, Worker, Zombie-Mode, Dual Kernel CUDA, ...)

--worker arg arg will allow you to specify worker name of your rig.

--devices arg arg has to be devices number separated by commas like --devices 0,1,3,4 will select GPU 0,1,3,4 and skip 2

--ethstratum arg arg = ETHPROXY or ETHV1, this Ethash stratum mode. Available options: ETHPROXY: Ethereum Proxy and ETHV1: EthereumStratum/1.0.0 (Nicehash), when you are mining in dual mode, you can select --ethstratum ETHPROXY,ETHV1, that will make that the 2nd connection the ETH or ETC will use the Nicehash connection. Useful to mine dual mining ETH + ZIL when the ETH pool is Nicehash.

--tstop to stop any mining operation on a GPU at the given temperature. --tstop 75 Will stop mining that GPU at 75C

--tstart to allow a restart of the card below a lower temperature --tstart 50 Will restart mining that GPU at 50C

--tmode edge/junction/memory to apply the scheme to edge (chip), junction (hotspot) or memory temperature. If a GPU does not have the required sensors the chip temperature will be used as a back up - if no sensors are available at all the parameters will be ignored.

--statsformat extended it is a fast way to show a nice wall of stats

--dagdelay [=arg(=0)] (=-1) Delay between creating the DAG buffers for the GPUs. Negative values enable parallel generation (default).

--cclk arg (=*) The core clock used for the NVidia GPUs, cards are separated with a comma. "*" can be used to skip a card. Only for Nvidia Ampere and Turing

--watchdog off/exit/script The options are:

off this will do nothing except for printing a message. If only a single card did crash and not the whole driver this means the other cards will continue mining.

exit this will close the miner with a exit code of 42. This can be picked up by the .sh or .bat script that did start the miner (an example is provided in mine_eth.sh and mine_eth.bat) so the miner will restart after some seconds of pause. This is recommended option for Nvidia cards.

script With this option the miner will call an external script (default path is current working directory and there emergency.sh / .bat), which can be configured with --watchdogscript. The moment the script is called the miner itself will exit. The script needs to take care about rebooting the rig or informing the OS what to do. Since this was the default behavior in previous versions it also is the default. In case the script can not be found, an error will be printed and the miner will continue as with --watchdog off.

--silence To change the verbose of the miner:

  • --silence 0 (default)

  • --silence 1 (no jobs information)

  • --silence 2 (no jobs information and shares information)

  • --silence 3 (only stats)
