How to monitor my rigs remotely? I have a few rigs and I am not sure when they go office-line. I now use Teamviewer to login in and check them ever few hours. But this is not practical as 90% of the time the rig hangs when TV starts.
If I was mining to one pool with one algorithm I could turn on monitoring on the pool. But as I am now using MultiPoolMiner the miner also switches.
So I can not have mining pool hub pools send me an email every time one of the rigs switches to the new miner/algorithm.
Some of the miners do provide an API. Such as Clymore I can monitor each right from my phone. But not the others. any suggestions what web base monitoring i can run on the rigs to report the hash rate? I have looked at Miner Monitor but that also trys to do what MultiPoolMiner does but with fewer algorithms.
Imperfect ideas for local monitoring:
a) GPU temperature
Use a program that monitors GPU temperature and notifies you when it drops below X.
Downside: does not catch total system failures
b) PSU with a digital interface, such as the Corsair Professional series
Connect the PSU to a cheap single-board computer, such as the Raspberry Pi. Notify when wattage drops below X
Downside: needs Linux knowledge
Neat side-effect: You can maintain a log with exact power consumption stats.
I'm just getting started with mining and I will opt for the latter.
