Various derived & home-made shell scripts for ethminer Mining
Donnations welcomed at: 0x522d164549E68681dfaC850A2cabdb95686C1fEC
Scripts are expected to be run within a dedicated user account (e.g. not root).
I recommend doing the following to ensure your user account as sufficient priviledges.
a) Add the user to the adm & video groups
$ sudo usermod -a -G adm <myuser>
$ sudo usermod -a -G video <myuser>
b) Create a log directory:
$ sudo mkdir /var/log/miners
$ sudo chown -R <myuser>:adm /var/log/miners
c) Mount the debugfs filesystem with video group access by adding the follwing to the /etc/fstab:
gid=44being groupvideounder Ubuntumode=550provide read+execute only access to both user & group and prevents access to others
# debugfs - Allow video group access
nodev /sys/kernel/debug debugfs defaults,gid=44,mode=550 0 0
Now mount the filesystem:
$ sudo mount -av
Confirm you have proper access:
$ ls -lad /sys/kernel/debug
dr-xr-x--- 30 root video 0 fév 18 21:45 /sys/kernel/debug
Simple startup script for various releases for ethminer:
- https://github.com/ethereum-mining/ethminer/releases
Loosely influenced by: - https://gist.github.com/bmatthewshea/9a062c092fd673318f8d208ce44f4f51
Place the files as follow:
- ethminer-init.d ->
/etc/init.d/ethminer - ethminer-default ->
/etc/default/ethminer - ethminer-logrotate.d ->
/etc/logrotate.d/ethminer
Or using the following commands:
$ sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/th0ma7/crypto/master/ethminer-service/ethminer-init.d --output-document=/etc/init.d/ethminer
$ sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/th0ma7/crypto/master/ethminer-service/ethminer-default --output-document=/etc/default/ethminer
$ sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/th0ma7/crypto/master/ethminer-service/ethminer-logrotate.d --output-document=/etc/logrotate.d/ethminer
$ sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/ethminer
Log files are located under /var/log/miners/ethminer.log
Make sure the log directory is read/write for the user account you use and create initial log file with proper permissions (see Mining Scripts Preamble section).
$ sudo mkdir /var/log/miners
$ sudo touch /var/log/miners/ethminer.log
$ sudo chmod 664 /var/log/miners/ethminer.log
$ sudo chown -R <myuser>:adm /var/log/miners
Adjust the following in /etc/default/ethminer (and also look into other possible details):
WALLET-> Your ethereum walletRUNAS-> User account where the daemon run as (never useroot!)DAEMON->ethminerbinary locationWORKER-> Identifier orhostnameyou whish to use to identify it online
$ sudo perl -p -i -e 's/^RUNAS=.*/RUNAS="<myuser>"/g' /etc/default/ethminer
$ sudo perl -p -i -e 's/WALLET=.*/WALLET="<mywallet>"/g' /etc/default/ethminer
$ sudo perl -p -i -e 's?DAEMON=.*?DAEMON="/opt/ethminer/bin/ethminer"?g' /etc/default/ethminer
$ sudo perl -p -i -e 's/WORKER=.*/WORKER="<myhostname>"/g' /etc/default/ethminer
Add & enable the service, reload systemd and start the service:
$ sudo update-rc.d ethminer defaults
$ sudo update-rc.d ethminer enable
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
IMPORTANT: Make sure log ethminer.log has propermissions as otherwise it will fail to start! (see above info)
$ sudo systemctl restart ethminer
Simple script to monitor the GPU of your mining rig along with status of ethminer service and restart or reboot if a GPU is hung. Currently only works with AMD video cards.
Parameters:
--HWMONor-HWMON-> Print GPU temperature & Watt--hs110-> Probe for total rig Wattage from TP-Link HS-110 device--debug-> Activate debug mode--noactor--no-act-> Simulate action but do not actually restart services or reboot the rig--help-> Show help
Place the files as follow:
- ethminer-watchdog.bash ->
/usr/local/bin/ethminer-watchdog.bash - ethminer-watchdog_default ->
/etc/default/ethminer-watchdog - ethminer-watchdog_cron.d ->
/etc/cron.d/ethminer-watchdog - ethminer-watchdog_logrotate.d ->
/etc/logrotate.d/ethminer-watchdog
Or using the following commands:
$ sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/th0ma7/crypto/master/ethminer-watchdog/ethminer-watchdog.bash --output-document=/usr/local/bin/ethminer-watchdog.bash
$ sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/th0ma7/crypto/master/ethminer-watchdog/ethminer-watchdog_default --output-document=/etc/default/ethminer-watchdog
$ sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/th0ma7/crypto/master/ethminer-watchdog/ethminer-watchdog_cron.d --output-document=/etc/cron.d/ethminer-watchdog
$ sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/th0ma7/crypto/master/ethminer-watchdog/ethminer-watchdog_logrotate.d --output-document=/etc/logrotate.d/ethminer-watchdog
$ sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/ethminer-watchdog.bash
Edit the needed parameters in /etc/default/ethminer-watchdog file (see below for quick one-liners):
EMAIL=<EMAIL> # Email where to send service restart & reboot info
HS110_IP=<IP> # IP address of your TP-Link HS110 device, if any
Change the username <USER> to match your username /etc/default/ethminer-watchdog:
$ sudo perl -p -i -e 's/<USER>/MY_ACTUAL_USER/g' /etc/default/ethminer-watchdog
Change the IP <IP> to match your TP-Link HS-110 device, if any:
$ sudo perl -p -i -e 's/<IP>/MY_ACTUAL_IP/g' /etc/default/ethminer-watchdog
Change the username <USER> in the crontab file /etc/cron.d/ethminer-watchdog:
$ sudo perl -p -i -e 's/<USER>/MY_ACTUAL_USER/g' /etc/cron.d/ethminer-watchdog
Log files are located here: /var/log/miners/ethminer-watchdog.log
Make sure the log directory is read/write from the user account you use.
$ sudo mkdir /var/log/miners
$ sudo touch /var/log/miners/ethminer-watchdog.log
$ sudo chmod 664 /var/log/miners/ethminer-watchdog.log
$ sudo chown -R <myuser>:adm /var/log/miners
The script requires the following:

$ wget -qO - http://repo.radeon.com/rocm/apt/debian/rocm.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
$ echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://repo.radeon.com/rocm/apt/debian/ bionic main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rocm.list
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install rocm-smi

Create a .muttrc in the $HOME directory of the user account the daemon will run into (never use root) with the following:
set realname = "<yourname>"
set from = "<gmailaddress>"
set use_from = yes
set envelope_from = yes
set smtp_url = "smtps://<gmailid>@[email protected]:465/"
set smtp_pass = "<gmailpassword>"
set imap_user = "<gmailaddress>"
set imap_pass = "<gmailpassword>"
set folder = "imaps://imap.gmail.com:993"
set spoolfile = "+INBOX"
set ssl_force_tls = yes
# G to get mail
bind index G imap-fetch-mail
set editor = "vim"
set charset = "utf-8"
set record = ''
Adjust permissions:
$ sudo touch $MAIL
$ sudo chmod 660 $MAIL
$ sudo chmod 600 ~/.muttrc
$ sudo chown `whoami`:mail $MAIL
Start mutt from the command line. At first startup it may be impossible to connect: You must autorise "less secure" connexions in gmail parameters from within your gmail user account settings. See also:
