@Fable, so with Arktika each node needs file access to all chunks, but it should be in a lower layer if it is over a network
2018-10-12 05:32:16
Fireduck
over a network, remote is way way faster
2018-10-12 05:32:28
Fireduck
since it is a snowblossom specific packed protocol
2018-10-12 05:32:54
Fireduck
so I have a machine with everything in ram and it shares via arktika and nfs.
2018-10-12 05:34:03
Fireduck
so the config for a remote node looks like this:
2018-10-12 05:34:05
Fireduck
layer_count=2 layer_0_type=remote layer_0_host=jet layer_0_threads=20 layer_0_range=0,127 layer_1_type=file layer_1_path=/snow layer_1_threads=0

Fable
So to access the file chunk from the LAN, a Snowblossom node has to run on the machine being accessed for the chunk? So is the chunk actually accessed through the Snowblossom node on that specific machine that is listed as the host on the layer config? And that is why it is faster?

makes note to test this so he can answer questions better

@Fable not at all. The arktika remote layer uses another arktika

2018-10-12 17:34:43
Fireduck

i was waking home from work and i saw babymouse bro on the pavement. he was clearly in distress and looking for food or water.
2018-10-12 17:40:07
Fireduck
it is a rough world
2018-10-12 17:41:37
fydel
i gave him some bread and went to my flat (50 meters away) to take a can to put him in and to carry him to my flat to feed him for some days and make him a strong mouse for the winter.
2018-10-12 17:42:17
fydel
when i was back a couple of minutes ago someone stepped on mouse bro and he was dead.
2018-10-12 17:42:52
fydel
yeah. it is a rough world.
2018-10-12 17:43:17
Fireduck
awww
2018-10-12 17:46:58
fydel

Restart your mining pool with a special remark in remembrance?
2018-10-12 17:58:18
fydel
good idea.
2018-10-12 18:03:45
fydel
but i dont understand how to do it.
2018-10-12 18:04:48
fydel
can you give more help/examples on the new special adds features?
2018-10-12 18:08:00
Fireduck
in your pool.conf, you have a line that says "remark=hamsterpool"
2018-10-12 18:08:21
Fireduck
change that to "remark=hamsterpool - in memory of mouse bro" (or whatever you want)
2018-10-12 18:08:26
Fireduck
and restart your mrplow
2018-10-12 18:08:35
Fireduck
wait till you solve a block or two and put it back
2018-10-12 18:08:40
Fireduck
that is all I am suggesting
2018-10-12 18:12:58
fydel
ah. okay.
2018-10-12 18:13:23
fydel
i thought you ment the new features of sp3
2018-10-12 18:14:14
fydel
i can't change the remark. i think it will screw up my pool script.
2018-10-12 18:14:26
fydel
but why not try.
2018-10-12 18:14:54
Fireduck
cool
2018-10-12 18:19:13
Rotonen
so i should probably have a remark ’hamsterpool - but really snowplough’
2018-10-12 18:21:09
fydel
change remark to "snowplough - RIP baby brother mouse bro" lol
2018-10-12 18:39:15
fydel
i feel better now.
2018-10-12 19:59:24
fydel
the big miner did not like it and has left now.
2018-10-12 19:59:50
fydel
i think he is anti-mouse.
