Just playing around with this one a bit.

Important Update: 2018-03-25 - Updated to xmrig 2.5.1 for hardfork(s)
Update 2018-03-31 - Updated to xmrig 2.5.2 for xmrig bug fix
Update 2018-10-19 - Updated to xmrig 2.8.3 for new hardfork

Code:
servethehome/universal_cryptonight:latest
Now based on an early Ubuntu 18.04 and xmrig 2.8.3

Aeon Example
Code:
docker run -it -e username=<wallet> -e numthreads=14 --cpuset-cpus="12-23,24,30" -e aeon=true -e av=2 servethehome/universal_cryptonight:latest
or another Aeon pool:
Code:
docker run -it -e username=<wallet> -e pool=<pooladdress> -e startport=<port> -e numthreads=14 --cpuset-cpus="12-23,24,30" -e aeon=true -e av=2 servethehome/universal_cryptonight:latest
Cryptonight Example
Code:
docker run -it -e username=<wallet> -e pool=<pooladdress> -e startport=<port> -e numthreads=14 --cpuset-cpus="12-23,24,30" servethehome/universal_cryptonight:latest
The default for cryptonight is Monero @ dwarfpool.

If you want to add a worker ID after the wallet (format for a normal is -u <wallet>.<workerid>) then use
Code:
-e workerid=worker1
Still more stuff to add, but that now is a single docker image for aeon av2, av1 (that defaults to the STH pool so no need for priv) and for cryptonight coins.

More work tomorrow on this but worth a test.

This is nice but you need a wrapper script for it because there's so many variables now.

When is this going to be done as "test" and moved to normal?

Yea it is about the same as the old ones now even with Spectre and Meltdown patches applied. Tried ETN, Sumo, Turtle, Intense, Monero, and Aeon with it.

I like the defaults since that allows you to simply have a wallet address and start mining.

Tagged this :latest as well.

Looks like Aeon on EPYC is a bit faster on this too. The av2 on EPYC 7451 was 1465H/s per NUMA node with the old aeon private image. The new universal one (defaults the pool/ port still) is giving just over 1500H/s per NUMA node. That is the net difference between 12000H/s and 11720H/s or about a 2.3% improvement.

Liking this. A lot. Now we don't need to download different images to switch pools.

Is there a way to configure low power (4mb cache) threads on cryptonight coins?

I made this to script startup easily based on your earlier script:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
#for Debian based
sudo sysctl vm.nr_hugepages=128

wallet=<walletid>
numthr=8
pool=<poolid>
port=3333
pass=x
image=servethehome/universal_cryptonight:latest
docker run -itd -e pool=$pool -e startport=$port -e username=$wallet -e pass=$pass -e numthreads=$numthr --cpuset-cpus="0-7" $image
docker run -itd -e pool=$pool -e startport=$port -e username=$wallet -e pass=$pass -e numthreads=$numthr --cpuset-cpus="8-15" $image
If you've got more CPUs you can add those docker run lines as needed only changing the cpuset-cpus.

You can add the -e aeon=true and -e av=1 to the lines for Aeon pools using this image.

Question.. I just got a 7351P, do I need to have at least 4 modules of RAM installed in order to mine with the 4 numa of the cpu?
Currently I get ~340H/s on a single numa, but if try to add more the H/s drop.


Code:
root@ubuntu:~# numactl --hardware

Do you think it would be possible for you to run a benchmark with just 1 ram module installed just to see if you get the same results as me ??
And how do I know how the relationship between NUMA nodes - ram sticks ?? I got a Supermicro H11SSL-i motherboard for the 7351p processor which has up to 8 ram slots

I would love to but the servers are all in the data center now.

2 channels per NUMA node so I would guess if there are 8 DIMMs you can populate every other slot. The manual should have this information

Need to update xmrig to the latest version, 2.5.0, for the upcoming Monero fork/network update or what ever they are calling it.

I updated all but one computer and am currently mining Monero with the new version.

Hopefully the network difficulty and hashrate will drop nicely after the fork and the asics will be useless mining Monero for a while.

Is this going to be updated to the latest xmrig for the Monero fork?
Is the donation level set to 0?

An important update, this has been updated for the Monero hardfork using xmrig 2.5.1
