BFGMiner configuration on your Dell Poweredge R200 server
As a user experienced by Ethereum, you have already received hardware with Dell Poweredge Server R200 and Bfgminer Mining Rig. However, we know that running high -performance mining software, such as BFGMiner, can be a discouraging task, especially when it comes to optimizing performance on older hardware.
In this article, we will go through the process step by step the BFGMiner configuration on your Dell Poweredge R200 server.
Premise
- Make sure your server is running a stable version of Ubuntu or Linux.
- You have a basic understanding of Ethereum and BFGMiner mining configuration options.
- Download and install the necessary software packages, including
Libethcore and '' Libethcore-qt.
Step 1: Install Bfgminer
To start operating with BFGMiner, you will need to install it on your server. Run the following order in a terminal:
Bash
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get installs bfgminer -y
This will install the latest version of Bfgminer and its addictions.
Step 2: Configure Bfgminer
Next, you will need to configure BFGMiner on your server. Open a new terminal window and browse theLibethcore-qt director:
`Bash
CD/USR/Local/LIB/ETHCORE-qT
Create a new file calledBfgminer.Confwith the following content:
Init
[generic]
Activation = 1
[Ticker]
Tick_price = 0.00000000
[pool]
pool_name = "
Replace' ”” with your ethreum mining pool address.
Step 3: Set your server
To set up your server to use BFGMiner software, you will need to edit the/etc/etherscan.Conffile. Open a new terminal window and sail to:
Bash
sudo nano /etc/etherscan.conf
Add the following lines to the bottom of the file:
Init
[pool]
pool_name = "
username = "your_username"
Password = "you_password"
[Ticker]
Tick_price = 0.00000000
[Gpu]
Activation = 1
ReplaceTau
Step 4: Restart your server
Reboot the server to apply the new configuration:
`Bash
Sudo Etherscan Sudo restarted
Trips to troubleshoot
- If you have problems with BFGMiner, make sure your server has enough processor and memory resources. It may be necessary to adjust theGPU configuration option.
- Note that Ethereum Mining is an intensive resource activity, so be prepared for the potential for stopping or degradation of performance.
With these steps, you should now have bfgminers set on Dell Poweredge Server R200. Remember to regularly monitor your system resources and adjust the configuration, as needed to optimize performance.
Conclusion
The configuration of BFGMiner on a low -power hardware, such as Dell Poweredge Server R200, requires a certain attempt and error, but with these steps, you should be able to start. Happy mining!
