Introduction

Here, we’ll be installing and running SRBMiner-Multi on HiveOS using a Flight Sheet. HiveOS also provides a web based dashboard for streamlined management and maintenance of your Quai Network GPU miner.

​
Requirements

In order to run the quai-gpu-miner on HiveOS and mine valid blocks, you’ll need the following:

Synced go-quai node

Configured Stratum proxy

HiveOS machine

NVIDIA or AMD GPU

4GB+ of RAM

​
Environment Setup

​
HiveOS

For this tutorial, you’ll need a HiveOS machine. Instructions for how to install HiveOS on your rig and configure it can be found on the HiveOS installation documentation.

​
Dashboard

Once you’ve installed HiveOS, configure your GPU workers into a Farm. Once configured, you’ll be able to manage workers from a HiveOS dashboard and utilize Flight Sheets.

​
Installation

To start the Flight Sheet installation, open up your HiveOS Farm Dashboard.
1

Add Wallet

In the farm menu, click the wallets tab.
On the right side of the page, click the add wallet button.
Fill in the wallet information:
  • For the Coin field, type Quai then click on the Create Quai option in the drop-down menu.
  • In the Address field, copy/paste your Quai wallet address. (This address is not used by the miner, so you can put any address here.)
  • For Name field, choose a name for your wallet.
To finish creating the wallet, click “Create” in the bottom right corner.
2

Add Flight Sheet

In the farm menu, click the flight sheets tab.
Click “add flight sheet”. Fill out the flight sheet information:
  • For the Coin select Quai.
  • For the wallet select the wallet you configured above.
  • For pool select Configure in miner.
  • For the Miner name, select SRBMiner-MULTI.
Next click Setup Miner Config right above where you selected SRBMiner-MULTI.
Configure your SRBMiner.
  • Set the Hash algorithm to kawpow.
  • for the Wallet type %WAL%.%WORKER_NAME%.
  • For the Pool URL, type stratum://EXTERNALIPADDRESS:PORT. Replace EXTERNALIPADDRESS and PORT with your stratum ip address and port.
On bottom right corner, click “Apply Changes”.Once the miner is configured you should give your Flight Sheet a name and click Create Flight Sheet.

​
Launch The Flight Sheet

The steps to begin mining are:
  • simply visit your worker’s page on HiveOS.
  • Navigate to the Flight Sheet tab.
  • Launch the Flight Sheet you just created.
It will take a few seconds for HiveOS to install and run the flightsheet on your worker machine. Once running, SRB Miner will run through an auto-tune process before it settles in and begins mining at optimal performance. If you’re logged into your HiveOS Worker you should see output similar to the following. If not, simply run the command hive-console to open the proper view.
You are now mining Quai with your GPUs on the KawPoW algorithm using HiveOS and SRB Miner!
