Title: Antminer S9 Rotate / Quota option
Post by: thierry4wd on October 28, 2018, 04:43:04 PM
Hi

I come to you because I can not set up an option, I tried everything ROTATE or QUOTA but to no avail ...

I want to share the power of my S9 for try 2 pool mainly, then I would like to know how it works! lol

Say I would like to change pool every 12 hours to try, or a 50% mode?

Any help will be welcome !!! ;)

the easiest way i can think of would be using Awesome Miner, it is free if you are going to use a single asic. i have not tried whatever you trying to do "because it does not make sense to me" but i know that function exist.

also if you are doing this just to test which pool is better, then it's not the best way to do this , 12 hours will tell you nothing.

Why would you want to do this? Can't you just take your miners and have half of them mine to one pool, and half to the other?

If you have another Linux-based machine on the same network then you can script the reconfigurations and run the script twelve hours with the crontab.

There is no way to split the hash rate on the miner itself, this feature was very problematic and that is why it is no longer available. If you only have one miner you will barely be registering profits anyway, splitting it will make it that much harder to get decent payouts.

Why not just split the profits from the miner after the pool pays out? No need to mine to two pools.
