Title: Antminer S9 Hard Reboot Post by: agswin on October 09, 2018, 04:05:03 AM Hello and thanks ahead of time. Is there a way to hard reboot (power cycle or equivalent) an antminer s9 remotely? The reboot in the gui doesnt seem to fix alot of issues that a hard reboot (unplug/replug) solves. I can use putty to access the miner. Just wondering if there are linux commands to shutdown and restart that is equivalent to a hard reboot.

The only way to perform a hard reboot is to remove the power and re apply it, unless you have a smart PDU or someone to unplug it / disconnect the power I don't think you'll be able to do what you want. Title: Re: Antminer S9 Hard Reboot Post by: tim-bc on October 09, 2018, 04:37:54 PM GUI reboot is soft reboot. Also the API reboot call is a soft reboot.
If you use putty you can access the shell and then run /sbin/reboot which seems equivalent to a hard reboot. Title: Re: Antminer S9 Hard Reboot Post by: fanatic26_ on October 09, 2018, 04:58:04 PM I have found you really need to power cycle the unit to reinitialize cards that are having issues. You can buy a device that allows you to SSH in and physically switch power on and off
You want something like this: https://www.amazon.com/D-Link-Energy-Monitoring-Amazon-DSP-W215/dp/B00K4YEI28/ Obviously you need to make sure it supports your PSU (110v versus 220v) and the proper amperage. The link I posted was for informational use only, it is not a specific recommendation. Title: Re: Antminer S9 Hard Reboot Post by: BitMaxz on October 09, 2018, 06:41:24 PM You can try this method from here On-board auto reboot with Antminer S9 (daily reboots) (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4720967.0) At least you can do the hard reboot automatically and schedule what time you want to reboot it.
For now, I don't find any methods that you can fully reboot remotely your miner, the above link maybe solved your issue.

Thanks guys Glad I could help! I haven't yet found any difference between /sbin/reboot and physically power cycling the miner. |
