Please can anybody tell me the best software to manage a bitcoin mining farm?

I need it for my new bitcoin mining farm setup

Thanks

Hi,

Awesome Miner (web site (http://www.awesomeminer.com/), forum thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=676942.0)) is of course my recommendation. It can manage and monitor a large number of miners.

Will it be a large amount of Antminers?

it is for my own private biz the will be (100 Antminers)

Thanks for the information.
In addition to all general monitoring and management features, Awesome Miner can also setup privileged API access for all your Bitmain Antminer ASIC's at once. Awesome Miner also provides other Antminer specific features like set and schedule frequency changes, display of both Antminer PCB temperature and chip temperature, plus customizable rules that can be triggered based on these temperatures. You will find more details on the web site.

I'm thinking about to get awsome miner for my farm as well, atm there are 7 s9-s but I'll expand is up to ~50, first I need a hoat computer on site.
Is it also good for GPU mining? ATM I have lie 90 GPUs and want to expand up to ~500

for sure Awesome miner https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=676942.0 till Minera https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=596620.0 new version comes out then well see :).

I use both one is a very good controller while doing stuff the other one does but each has it's use over the other :) .

as I guess both softwares need client PC on site right?
I have mining farm outside town and there are only miners and firewall, the cheapest solution will be to get VPN router I guess

With the New Minera you don't need any VPN and you can place everything inside a DMZ with firewalls, you only need a system with access to the internet (only output, no input, no NAT, no VPN).

Place your system in your LAN, install the new Minera Client and you will control everything from a public web address (via mobile too).

Please PM me if you are interested because I need beta testers (we are currently in Beta).

PM sent

Do we have some other mining options for large farms aside from Awesome miner and Minera out there?

I guess we don't and I wonder why bitmain doesn't provide their own soft, some of us are even willing to buy it.

Came here to ask this question for one of my future ventures.
Thank you for the suggestions.
Had an eye on Awesome Minor.

There's 2 parts to this:
One is playing with the settings, checking them and generally messing around with miners.

However, the other is managing the pool connections.
Managing the pool connection should be done running one (or more) proxies.
Basically setup a few proxies and point all miners at them.

You don't want to be messing with pool settings on each individual miner each time you want to change that.
I doesn't matter if you can click on something that will then go and change every single miner, you want every miner to go through a proxy, so that you decide at one point (well as many points as proxies you setup) where you are mining and mine more efficiently.
A proxy means that you have the best latency to the pool since all the miners talk directly to the local proxy for their work, but the proxy only talks to the pool once each time new work arrives and for each share sent back.

Be sure you run a trustworthy proxy - some of them don't work and withhold blocks.

I of course recommend ckpool proxy - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=790323.msg8907589#msg8907589
