Title: A silly question (Minerd CPU-mining)
Post by: vingaard on January 29, 2014, 06:13:33 PM
Using CPU minerd... How can I set two pools in one command line in order to change from one pool to another in case the pool is down?

Thanks in advance

If its like the others, cgminer, bfgminer, then you just add more servers, username and password sets to the command line.

like,

minerd -server1 -username1 -password1  -server2 -username2 -password2  -server3 -username3 -password3

but using the correct details.

Worth a try?

It doesn't work...

I've tried:

minerd.exe -a quark --url pool1:0000 -u user -p pass --url pool2:0000 -u User -p Pass -t 3

And only connects to the second one...

I couldn't see anything in the read.me or the --help option about multiple servers.

So... I can't configure multiple pools... I though that but I wanted to check

Thank you for your help  ;)

I think you are right. No multiple pools from what I can see.
