Antminer S9 troubleshooting?

Hello Everyone,

I am just getting my feet wet in the mining process. To get started I snagged a couple of old S9's and built a small GPU rig. Just trying to get educated.....

Time for some education.....This morning I noticed that one of the S9's had stopped processing. One of the three "chains" was showing zero hash and my NiceHash monitor was showing no work.


After a bit of poking around and a couple of reboots I was looking at the kernel log and see what may be an indication of the problem.

Hopefully we have an Antminer Guru in the house.... Here is a snipet from the log:

Well...... I have lost my clipboard...... And, the last reboot cleared the log. The machine is running now....

I hate it when issues appear and then mysteriously heal themselves. I would rather find something broken and fix it. That leaves me with at least a little confidence that the problem is actually fixed,....

My sense of urgency has passed but I would still have someone look over my logs and let me know if anything is amiss.

Any volunteers?  Smiley Smiley

Any input is appreciated.

PS: Gotta love the Antminers this time of year. I can work out here without a heavy jacket now. Smiley
