Hey there! I got a task from the client to setup, configure a medium size farm if 50 pcs of antminer s9, but unfortunately didn’t find anything except Awesome miner advertise ….
My experience of keeping and managing is limited of 3-5 asics or below 5 6-8-cardsGPU farms etc
I would say an experience of a toddler
but anyways
The client provides a special storing with condition, electricity, security etc
For now I took a load balance + switch, will have a broadband ethernet + 2 LTE for link backup. Additionally there will be a server within the network for controlling, monitoring and managing miners, maybe also proxying, besides probably I will set an RPI with some software (35 bucks is not a big deal though…
)
So far I wanna share the experience and maybe listen to some advices if someone already manages or used to manage such project.
How do you control the farm - temperature, hash rate etc?
Which software do you use for control or managing (for example if you need to change the pool)?
Have you used anything of these for such projects: Minera, Cryptoglance, Awesome miner, Antminer Miner Controller, Stratum Proxy?
Is it better do in a pool or solo or maybe nicehash?
If a pool then which one?
Any other advices?
Those big gamblers which I know - they all just use ant pool without using their brain and hire some “anykey” guys to maintain via VNC/RDP/TV…
If such topic is interesting for public, I’m OK to post some here some info of the configurations, and news of managing of this farm.
Thanks in advance!
