I use Cryptoglance only for an at-a-glance view of how my miners are running at the pools. AFAIK it has not been updated in a while to support any vital miner control functions on the s9's on up...

I had a board repaired at the bitmainwarranty, but it still isn't working correctly. It occassionally keeps dropping to zero hash rate and asic status shows a full row of x's. Reboot fixes it again for a variable amount of time.
I've tried different communication port on the controller and the problematic board only moves to a different chain and the controller in functioning normally.
I'm keeping in touch with bitmainwarranty to find out a good solution, but as a back-up plan I was wondering if someone here would be familiar with a script for restarting the cgminer/bmminer in case of some of the boards dropping to a zero hash rate?
This is a 11.85Th/s 550M pre-autotune model.

Use Awesome miner and create a rule for the miner to restart or reboot whenever its rate drops below your trip point. Works well, Awesome for me, especially with my under-volted s7's. When one gets cranky and drops a card I have the rule set to start CGminer again and the card comes back up. So far with s9's that works as well which is great considering the s9's -- especially the auto-tune ones -- don't like reboots...

Hi,
I just realize that S9s are sold out. Any idea where to buy? or when is the next batch? I am going to buy 2 S9...
Thanks,

Thanks,
Bitmain is observing the Chinese New Year. Check again next week (roughly February 5th). You might be able to find a previously owned one for sale on the "For Sale" sub-forum: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=75.0

I was wondering though if it could be some how wrote directly to the cgminer conf for example. (via ssh) edit:I tried now to swap one board with my another S9 and see if I get any new results, lets see... edit2:yep, same results as before, so it is indeed still a faulty hash board and other components are ok.

This has been corrected and the number is now 967 on both websites. So if you order that march 1 unit be sure to check and see that the numbers match on hashnest and bitmain as they should . Also if you purchased the s9 at the 917 rate ask for a refund of around 60 usd. I really would like to see and read if you got stuck and if they fix it. as a heads up coinbase is quoting btc at 960 usd
bitmain is quoting btc at 917
thus you lose about 65 dollars if you use coinbase.
Hashnest has coins at 956
since hashnest and bitmain share the same website and are under the same umbrella it is really fucking bad that they do not match Take a look ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F8fRqfTu.png&t=665&c=j2wsBknGgiF0DQ)

This is the second order in a row where they are giving a future shipping date. I know Chinese New Year is part of it but... Do you think this will become standard? I mean, why not take our money ahead of time? The miner will devalue in the month wait and they can mine with it ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

I think this is rather about the amount to produce, gauging interest.

I'm pretty pleased with the service of Bitmain Warranty in Denver, CO. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Even though the board they repaired for me didn't work properly after all (it keeps dropping to zero hash rate and shows a row of x's), they handled fixing the situation very well. They will send me a working hash board in exchange after I have sent (I just actually came back from the post office) the faulty board back for them. I can definitely recommend them for fixing your miner. And thank you Phil and the others who have shared previous experience with them.

They seem very slow to me, they have my S9 board since 18th Jan and still waiting for a quote

I don't know, they don't need to gauge interest these days because they sell out every batch.

I don't know, they don't need to gauge interest these days because they sell out every batch. I am amazed at how many people still venture into mining when at best it is marginal. Really there are only very few scenarios when this makes sense for home miners. Maybe I am missing something here?

Maybe I am missing something here? yes you are missing people with cheap power not lots but 5 k watts to 15 kwatts which is say 4 to 11 s9s or 50th to 140th 50 th at 3 cent power = 700 usd a month after costs 140th at 3 cent power = 2100 usd a month 4 s9s = 5,600 11 s9s = 15,400 what legal business generates that income for that investment. Many people can access smaller power amounts. My house uses gas heat for every 5 dollars spent on power to mine I save 1 dollar in gas heat.... so from Oct 1 to April 1 I get a 20% break on power. WHAT KILLS the small guy with a good power deal is gear that breaks.

I used to mine out of my house, then office, then locally offsite, now in another state. Some of us are crazier than others. But all in all it's been both fun and profitable to be part of the revolution. Which still continues to surprise.

Looks like another couple of S9 batches are available. One is already sold out. Better buy up this last batch fast. Last chance to do your part to drive the next difficulty over 13% ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

You are indeed throwing money away. Good luck. http://www.bitcoinforecast.com Keep an eye on this site for a week and let me know what ya all think;) I have some more charts I'll share tomorrow Worth a look! BR
