Mining with ethOS on Suprnova.
So ethOS is basically shipped per default to mine on pools such as ethermine, nanopool and others that use wallet addresses as the account and that do NOT require workers.
Classic pools like Suprnova and Coinmine do require workers, this is where you need special steps to be able to mine on it with ethOS.
First of all, you will need to add a worker on Suprnova for EACH ethOS rigs you have.
The worker MUST be your rig's hostname. To find out, simply login in SSH and you'll see a similar line:
08:26 PM root@bd3655 10.34.0.187 [71.5 hash] /root #
In this case here, our worker will be bd3655.
*** NOTE. If you do specify the "loc" setting in your ethOS configuration the loc you've setup will be your worker. Please consult your ethOS panel to see if you have any enabled. ***
Now, login to Suprnova with your account and go into "My Workers".
Add bd3655 with the password x.
Now we'll modify our ethOS configuration. As an example we'll connect to the Suprnova ZEC pool and our username will be miner123.
---
Open up your config file in nano: nano /home/ethos/local.conf
---
Ensure that those 3 lines are as such:
proxywallet miner123
proxypool1 zec.suprnova.cc:2142
proxypool2 zec-eu.suprnova.cc:2142
---
Then, restart your miner:
minestop && allow && show miner
You're now done, you should be seeing hashrate on ethOS.
