Title: Control 6 RIGS
Post by: xleps81 on March 20, 2018, 01:21:57 AM
Hello, whats the best way to control several RIGs with one keyboard, monitor, mouse?

I have built 6 RIGS already, and I want to improve that.

Glad to hear some good Tips!!

From inside my network, I use VNC.  From outside my network I use teamviewer to remote into a machine on my network and then use VNC from there.  As far as controlling power goes, I use switched pdu's.

If you're in front of the rig.  I just use a combo touchpad wireless mouse/keyboard and move the usb dongle around.  Along with the hdmi cable for the monitor I have sitting there.

SMOS. Or Hive. Both have good web interfaces you can use to monitor and control all your rigs at once.

I'm remotely controlling a mini farm just by using a laptop via Teamviewer/VNC...
For your rigs, you just need to: start Teamview and miner software (create a shortcut of miner then put it in startup folder) with window, and dont forget to configure automatic power in Bios setting: Restore on AC/Power Loss -> set to ‘Power On’ or/and Restore AC Power Loss -> set to ‘Always On’. And if you want to make auto hard reset, check it here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1933467.0

I highly suggest looking into a management system like Awesome Miner, SMOS, HiveOS, etc... especially since you have more than a couple of rigs.  With these management systems you don't have to use a mouse or keyboard unless something has really gone wrong.

For instance, Awesome Miner will download the mining software to the rig for you, it will setup the mining software to the pool you want and then monitor it and keep it running.

Use app "Chrome Remote Desktop" better than team viewer; I've tried it.
1. Easy to use and can do anything on a PC that is remote
2. Very light and available in google chrome
3. Free and only people who know the PIN to be able to remotely PC
4. Can connect from anywhere as long as identifying PIN to be remote.

I also use Teamviewer. This is a good program. But there is another option. I use it too. This is Ammyy admin.It does not require installation. This software uses less resources and works faster. Sometimes the Teamviewer server crashes and you cannot connect to my rigs. Then I use the second option.
