Title: Tip: how to keep miners running in linux Post by: minerapia on May 22, 2013, 07:07:29 PM This one is quite simple, it uses cron which runs periodic tasks.
You can quite easily modify this for any software, example uses cgminer. to disable logging just remove "echo ..." lines from the watchdog.sh this doesnt work if you run multiple instances of the same miner, also it doesnt restart dead gpus etc... You dont need separate script in init or anything, if you use time interval short enough to start miner after boot. This merely checks if miner process is running, thats all. create "/home/username/start_cgminer" with following content: Code: screen -S cgminer -d -m cgminer --auto-fan --auto-gpu to keep it running i made script: "/home/username/cron/watchdog.sh" Code: #!/usr/bin/env bash start editor for user crontab: "crontab -e" add line to the end, this runs watchdog.sh every 2 minutes. Code: */2 * * * * /home/username/cron/watchdog.sh >/dev/null 2>&1 if you want different interval for example every 6 hours: Code: * */6 * * * /home/username/cron/watchdog.sh >/dev/null 2>&1 Donations appreciated as usual :D Title: Re: Tip: how to keep miners running in linux Post by: jbass350z on February 15, 2014, 08:04:54 PM Does this meed modified at all for use with BAMT?
