Omfg cdf's @ 94,62% and 99,69% anyone care to calculate the 1:X odds on this happening ?

..I sure hope Fefox rented the muscle to break em.

I hope this dosent mean the pool has somehow been deemed hoppable:

Rank    Name    Mhps
1   Fefox           84,345
2   bronan   79,607

..If not, then welcome. Smiley

Hoppers need a pool to "fallback" when all prop pools and yielding less than PPS.  The weird thing is Fefox appears to always mine and the amount of hashing power just varies.  That isn't "usual" hopper behavior.

Could it be more profitable for a hopper using us as a backup pool to leave a miner or two to keep up the shift-score while hopping out ?

Imho you propably shouldn't bother with a sms-system, who these days does not have e-mail in their pocket and even if thats a considerable amount of ppl, it will be far less in a year.

I disagree somewhat. I get so many mails per day, I really dont check my phone every time a mail arrives. When an SMS arrives, I do check, even at night.

That said, an API for the miners that some android/iphone app could check and alert you is probably about as good; the current API only supports pool wide data AFAICT



I'd work around that by setting up a separate e-mail address for the warnings and have it be on vibrate or sound on new mail.

Did we have some downtime today, I see atleast some of my 3 workers have swapped to a backup pool for some time ?

My own workers had connection problems today 11:57-12:07 UTC and 14:21-14:28 UTC. Looks like that coincides with your drop in stats on BitMinter. I hope that's not how things are going to be with the new data center.

17 minutes shouldn't affect your stats that much though. Perhaps the miner took a while to move back from the backup pool?

Btw. Are there any plans on implementing an e-mail warning system for workers going offline ?

Yep, it's on the famous TODO list. Wink


Any Bamt-guru available to point out how I could get the workers to check the primary-pools status more frequently, while mining in a secondary pool ^^ ?

That looks worse than spilling over.

As for email and/or SMS alerts; I think its on Docs todo list, as one of the features that will be made available to people donating.
But his list is long, and so dont quote me on that Smiley.

That said, doesnt BAMT have a feature for that? That would be more useful, you want to be alerted if your miners are down, more than if only one of your pools is down.

It does, but I cant seem to get it working, atleast with gmails SMTP server, my nearly nonexistent linux-skills could be a factor there tho : )

Not aware of any downtime. but if you are using cgminer, then thats fairly normal. Whenever a LP happens and cgminer thinks its not getting new work fast enough, it will send a few shares to one of your failover pools. I constantly spill like ~2% to failover pools. There is a switch to stop that behavior (--failover-only or something? check the readme), but it doesnt hurt, and in fact, might give you a tiny advantage.

Ok, cool. Im actually using Bamt on two of my rigs. Looks like 1-2 of them have been in the backup pool for enough time to mine 0.05 bitcoins, also my hashrate at bitminter has gone fairly low for a long period:
