Having some issues with my 3 new blades.
Have them set to connect to 2 IPs on my network running stratum proxies. I've set the proxies to connect to both slush's pool and btcguild but they're still having this issue.

For a little while yesterday all 3 blades were running great at 10.7ghash each. At this point, however, they display much lower hashes from 4-7 k and are not returning a large amount of shares after receiving them.

When I monitor my stratum proxies, it appears that the blades go on with their work, then at a random time after asking for work or submitting a share, the miner pauses, quits, and connects to the other pool in its config for no apparent reason. The miners keep doing this and keep switching between the 2 IPs I have in their configs. Apparently, they work for a little while on one computer's stratum proxy, stop sending back shares, then connect to the other computer's stratum proxy and repeat the process.

Another weird thing is that when I set the miners to connect to one proxy by repeating the IP address in their config, they don't really work at all. They appear to receive 8 shares then don't really do anything for a few minutes then reset. Once I specify 2 different pool addresses in the config, the miners properly connect and begin to do work.

Not sure what is going on here, wondering if anyone could give some advice?

Edit: After reading vesperwillow's post from yesterday, it sounds like we could maybe be having the same issue?

Mountain, Please add some pictures to aid in understanding what you mean please. Pictures are worth more than a 1,000 words =P

Please post some pictures of your config menu when you are connected.

Also, are you using two different IP's on each blade? or are you using 1 specific proxy for each individual blade? For example:

Quote

example.worker:password,example.worker:password

or is it like this for one blade: ?

Quote

example.worker:password,example.worker2:password

Its the Rev 2 board, so integrated NIC. I just bought a new PSU, I can use the 6pin PCIe power right? What about the 4-8pin CPU power? Its 600W, 2 x 12v rails at 18A and 16A, 18ga wire. Does the hardware reset need to be done with power on? The reason I ask is that I've bricked a desktop mobo resetting its CMOS while powered (early days of PC building), and I don't know if this is the same.

Vlad, No. I didn't need to touch the reset pins at all, unless you are actually trying to reset them by "shorting" them out by applying some conductive material across 1-2pin(reset) 2-3pin(factory reset).

Can you also supply me with a link of the PSU or a picture? Hard to help you out man without knowing what PSU you got =) Thanks

Other Info:
How many blades do you have?
Model / Specs of your PSU?
Anything else I might need to help troubleshoot?
