Mulit Pool Mining Bitmain C1 Or S4

[lovenlifelarge]

When i had a S3 bitmain miner i was able to split my miner to run on up to 3 pools at one by making the miner split the hash power either on 1st pool first, dividing the power across 3 pools or4 using on a round robin.

Is there anyway to set this up on a C1 or a S4

I wanna be able to split my mining power across 3 pools at once...

Is this possible??

Thanks in advance

yes but you have to ssh into the miner to make the change

OK can u be of help to either give me the knowledge to do this or can u point me in the right direction?

What is the advantage in splitting hash power in different pools?

Biggest advantage I know of is if you want to types of pools going.  Lets say you want most to go to pool mining, and a little into solo.

This would allow you to mine both solo and pool at same time.  Most will never use this feature though. I personally do all pool mining.

I was looking to mine on one pool 75% and then point 25% at a solo pool.

I have worked out how to do this but i'm at a loss to make it stick after reboot...

The setting are lost on reboot

Here are the settings to do it, Although they dont survive a reboot so u need to do it each time ur miner reboots

1. SSH to S4, Login root/admin. (I use putty.)

2. Type "screen -r" to enter the running screen session, assuming it is running with default image and settings.
- While in the screen session, many messages will go by. You have to read through them.

3. Type "P" to enter Pool Management.

4. Type "C" for Change Management Strategy.

5. Select one of the following: "0"-Failover(default), "1"-Round Robin, "2"-Rotate, "3"-Load Balance, "4"-Balance.
- Load balance requires quotas to be setup first. Balance uses equal share across configured pools. Read the cgminer readme files for more detail.

6. Press Enter key to exit Pool Management menu. Should now be back at main cgminer menu.

7. Exit screen session by issuing "Ctrl-A", "Ctrl-D". (Hold down Ctrl key, press "a/A", then "d/D".

8. Now back at shell prompt.

Until someone can tell me how to make them survive a reboot
