Title: Monitor gpu farm with one monitor ?
Post by: EfterlysT on February 15, 2014, 02:19:53 PM
I am on my way putting up a smaller gpu farm together. I am rebuilding my rigs and adding some more. There will be a total of ten rigs with four gpus each, ready for adding some more gpus later on. Is there any software to conrol/monitor each system with only one screen, keypad and mouse ? Until now i have switched monitor cable and mouse on my five rigs when needed. I am probably going to use windows 7 as long as possible.

Anyone know how it could be done ?

You'd be better off running linux no need for a monitor set it to automine as soon as it turns on. If you need to control the system you can just use SSH.

Then use something like https://phpminer.com (https://phpminer.com) and you can monitor all your rigs from a single website.

If you're staying on Win 7 (as OP mentioned), install Teamviewer on each machine and you can remote into each one from the one with the monitor.

CGRemote requires CGWatcher.

Both + TV are instrumental for watching my farm, at least in Win7/8.1
