Title: New Hash Rate Monitor.
Post by: kencox on September 21, 2013, 05:51:38 AM
Hey everyone. We just pushed our Hash Rate Monitor to Beta. It is ready for users to sign up.

http://www.chompthebit.com

We can monitor your hash rate and email you if your hashrate drops below what ever you specify. The two pools we are currently configured to use are www.btcguild.com and www.wemineltc.com

We will be adding more pools for you to monitor your workers on. Send us an email on what pools you want added to be monitored.

Oh, so you do email notifications for pools that already do email notifications?  Wow, that's innovation right there.

Why would someone want YOU to monitor their accounts?

You can install local monitoring to do the same.  Why would I need 3rd party involved in MY monitoring of MY miners.

Not everyone is interested in installing HTTP servers, opening firewalls, forwarding router ports, upgrading / updating monitoring systems themselves. Some people just want simple, working systems.

The Pool only tells you when your Miner is offline. It does not tell you when your hash rate drops. If you have 2 or 10 BFL's hashing on one box how do you currently know if one of them drops offline or not. Also We have seen pools go under attack and not be able to send out the notifications.

Chompthebit.com is not the same notifications that you get from the pool you set your thresholds and get notified when a worker drops below that threshold. Also I like being able to see multiple Pools from one interface.

I never said it was innovative. It is needed for anyone mining at a high rate. We have purchased over 50k in mining hardware in the past 6 months and I want to make sure they are all hashing at there highest capability at all times. I have my notifications going to my NOC where someone can go look at the system 24x7 while I sleep. Today the pools only notify on Idle miners not a miner that has dropped  any percentage of its hash rate.

yes you can install local monitoring but that will not tell you if your box is offline. If you box crashes how is it going to notify you that it is down. If the Pool crashes how is it going to notify you that it is down. I currently manage well over 5000 machines in our data center. All critical systems get monitored by a third party. Third party monitoring is not a replacement to local monitoring it is simply to ensure your systems are online. No single system is fool proof. Multiple monitors is a good thing.
