1.6.5 Dashboard shows wrong HugePages status

[electroape]

Looking at hashrate it's comparable to previous releases hashrate with HP enabled, but miner and CC server displays it as disabled.

What do you mean? Which OS?

Huge-pages is now printed out per thread that status "available, enabled" is now gone.

[electroape]

Win 10 x64. Per thread display is 0/1, and first message after start is that HP was enabled but needs OS restart. Tried to restart, HR is the same (as with HP enabled with older release)

[Bendr0id]

The Dashboard indeed shows a wrong state, i'll fix that.

Do you restarted?

[electroape]

Yep. Not only dashboard it seems, miner itself reports it as disabled too.

[electroape]

Not to mention that HP was enabled before already, and miner auto-starts elevated.

[Bendr0id]

When the miner is not able to set the memory lock for the page it is not enabled, it will printout as 0/1.

Can you send me the output of the miner start?

[electroape]

One moment ...

[electroape]

400 HR seems a bit off, maybe this time it's disabled indeed, was about 520 as is restarted it just now but printout was the same. It tends to glitch out HP after several restarts, then you need to restart OS to fix it.

[Bendr0id]

Do you run as administrator?

[electroape]

Yes, it's autostarts in task manager with SYSTEM profile.

[electroape]

I'll try to get printout of other machine to see if it's any different.

[Bendr0id]

Yeah that would be good. And you're sure it had previously always hugepages enabled..?

[electroape]

Hmm, looks like it's indeed dashboard only ... See, i have several machines that i've updated to last version just now remotely, previously there was no problems with HP after update to new version, maybe this time i need to restart these machines. Just started miner on clean machine (with HP enabled but with no miner started after last OS restart), and miner shows HP enabled, but dashboard not, yeah.

[electroape]

I'll try to restart server one more time.

[Bendr0id]

Yeah the dashboard has indeed a wrong state, on my setup as well. I'll fix that

[electroape]

Alright, after restart it seems fine.

Ty, keep your good job, addition of remote log is very handy ! Just one more thing we need is remote update.

[Bendr0id]

Thanks for donating, please keep it!

I'll change the title to "Dashboard shows wrong HP status".

Remote update is a little bit tricky on windows. I tried it already but most AV don't like an .exe which downloads another .exe and starts it ;-)

[electroape]

Well, most AVs don't like any miners in the first place, i've excluded xmrig folder from scan, that'll help with daemon downloading exe too i think, looking forward for that feature ! :)
