If I use Awesome Miner as my primary controller and install the Remote Agent on my Hive OS rigs, do I still need to "register" the rigs in the "Hive cloud", or can I get by with just entering a rig name and password in the init.conf file and never bother managing the rig(s) from the Hive web based service?

I realize that going this route, I won't be able to update the Hive OS version on each rig as new releases come out, but since Awesome Miner takes care of keeping the mining software updated, this is less of an issue I would think. So whenever a new Hive OS image comes out, that would be when I would update the rigs and of course I can run the nvidia-driver-update command as explained in the previous post to keep the video drivers current.

Thoughts?

I honestly don't get why you'd want to go through all these loops and hoops, for 0 advantage and twice the hassle.

If you like Awesome Miner, just install windows and run their app. I don't see the point, nor benefit, in running hive on your rigs without using any of the features that make it such a great OS and platform to begin with.

The entire point of hive is to deploy, monitor and manage your rigs from a single web-based dashboard.

You basically want to ditch that to use a, IMHO inferior, monitoring tool that doesn't support half of hive's features or miners.
