MinerKeeper - monitoring tool for Ewbf and Claymore miner

[wstealth]

Hi guys,

MinerKeeper is a console application (*.exe file) that constantly monitors your miner and restarts the miner in case he crashed or stopped mining due to any internal errors. MinerKeeper, if you want, can also inform you about the restart of the miner by sending an e-mail or Telegram messages.

The latest version: v2.2.0 (05.11.2017) - download.

Please read the documentation after the download.

Main features

• Full support of Ewbf ZCash (ZEC) cuda miner and Claymore's Dual Ethereum+Decred AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner
• Restart a miner in case of a crash or if it stopped mining due to any internal errors
• Automatically restart a miner every X hours
• Automatically restart a PC every X hours
• Sending a notification if your rig is offline - MinerKeeper will notify you in case of power loss, network disconnection or unexpected PC restarts.
• Adjustable time interval for monitoring of a miner
• Configurable delay before the restart of a miner, to allow the GPUs to be correctly restarted
• Monitor the cryptocurrencies rates and send a notification based on the specified conditions (if the current rate is more, equals or less than the expected value)
• Sending a notification and/or restart a miner if the average hashrate is lower than expected during X minutes
• Sending a notification if the temperature on any GPU is higher than expected
• Sending a summary report of your farm every X hours
• Sending all of the notifications to the e-mail address and/or to Telegram Messenger

I am currently using an autorun bat file and happy with it. Its working perfectly.
Will try this soon. Other one sends telegram messages so i prefer nto to change to email notifications but sure i will give a try.

I've just started with MinerKeeper.

It is using a modular system inside that can easy monitor any miners, not the only one - Ewbf.

I have some plans to extend the functionality as well:
- to send the webhooks messages with mining details - to be able to integrate it easily with your existing web system
- to send the heartbeat messages - to be able to identify that the whole system hangs and, for example, send the message to your IoT device to restart the PC.

It would be really nice to hear from you what you need.

What I need - something that runs on a pc (windows/linux/rpi2) - locally - not via the internet, that can monitor the local network rigs, be it cpu, nvidia, amd or asic rigs - dont need restart functionality - email is good enough - just one place to see the mining environment...

2 AzCrTe: What do you want to see exactly?

Hi,

is there anyway to delay miner restart on crash to allow cards to reset ?

Now, the MinerKeeper may inform you about the rates of the cryptocurrencies.
It allows you to stop constantly monitoring the rates of the  cryptocurrencies, and let the robot do that for you, which will do that 24/7 and will inform you immediately if the current rate reaches your expected value.

The changes in this new version:

• Wait and do not restart a miner immediately, in case of errors, if a miner is not initialized yet just after its start
• Monitor the cryptocurrencies rates and send a notification based on the specified conditions (if the current rate is more, equals or less than the expected value)
• Send a summary report at 00 minutes of the specified hour, or every day at 00:00 for the daily summary report
• Show the date and time when a rig was the last time online, in the notification that a rig is offline
• The summary report has become more compact, to see even more information on the lock screen of your cell phone

Right now it is not supported, but in the new version it will be possible to send commands to:
- restart miner
- restart pc
- change miner

However, right now MinerKeeper can send you a notification if your rig is offline.
