How long have your rigs run without resetting?

[mewhoyou]

As per subject, the longest of any of my miners are 1 week. I find it a rather almost full time job to have to run to my rig to hard reset them.

Any suggestion to remote resetting? I am exploring diskless system and it seems to be the most practical method.

just add reboot.bat to execute each 4 days or something reasonable. And add the miner.bat in the startup so that it starts automatically as your PC starts.

Probably around 2, maybe 3 months for most rigs with Win7 with a few tweaks and most scheduled tasks disabled so there's nothing going on in the background that could degrade it over time.

But then again 2-3 months without a short power outage is super rare. And some rigs are less stable whatever I do and only usually go for a couple of weeks tops.

For most rigs that won't go long it's almost always caused by poor USB powered risers. 3 parts per risers, it's a pain in the ass trying to find out which part (out of 18 for a 6 card rig) is at fault.

Mine is at 28 days now.

It's only 28 days because I upgraded ethOS and that required a reboot. Prior to that it had been several months. The biggest issue for me is the occasional loss of power. It is now cold (relative to "normal" weather here) where I live so I suspect that the next unplanned reboot will be due to loss of power due to an ice storm.

Months at a time, 20+ Windows 10 rigs with 6 or 7 GPUs each. Only reason they go offline is to get blasted with compressed air, or power outage.

well with zec i had to upgrade claymore many times.  but if I leave the rigs alone 3 weeks is pretty easy sometimes 5 or 6.

most issues are psu lacks the balls it needs.

card gets too hot.

riser gets too warm.

How can it be a full time job if all you take is few minute to hard reset each rig (well unless you are talking about 10000 rig)? There are actually a lot of way to remotely reset but each come with problem too.

I myself tried wireless remote power socket but no luck, it work at first but might be due to the high heat from rig it spoil rather quick.

Max is probably a week. Then either some GPU will crash and system will either automatically reboot or it will  be a hard hang.

No idea how you guys can run it for 3 months straight, these aren't Antminers.

i didn't experience any crash perfectly stable, the only time i stop it is to change the miner version that's it

now apparently there is a bug on my system that prevent win 10 from updating, which come in handy for me

For the old R9 390, the riser is cold.

R9 390 draws more power from the connectors, newer RX cards draws more power from the slot so riser will get warmer there.

As for the thread only reason I shut down my rigs is to update claymore's miner. Other than that It's been months since something crashed.

by 5xrx480 rig working only a month, but never reset or crashed or anything, just working

[felixbrucker]

mostly multiple months, till i decide to change something hardwarewise or relocate the entire rig

less if some hardware is faulty or underpowerd (psu)

im using win 8.1 to avoid win10 forced updates and still use 6 gpus easily

Is there a simply way to use 8.1 for 6 gpu? It seems complicated

I just made a post about it ^^

i do not understand you all, my rig not reset or crash even once after i build it

[toptek]

Actually you can turn off updates in windows 10 just gonna know how to and were   . i do it all the time when i do a clean install with a unattend.xml setup file and  install with WinPE using a USB  32 GB SSD  drive, it's faster then using the setup.exe and i edit my install.wim after i convert it from ESD   then customize the install on a VM and test it so no issue for me on windows 10 at all and the new AMD drivers that have driver signing I patched to use with a modded bios seem to have stopped random crashes i was getting when i switched from ZEC to ETH mining without first either a shut down  or reboot on 5 GPU rig I still reboot/shutdown to be safe but those drivers for me any way seemed to fix it .

you are a lucky man!
Can you tell what mobo and cards are using ?

If you do not over clock, it is stable.
