So some of my miners require a restart about every 12-17 hours - they occasionally show up with the dreaded "x" but then upon a restart they are all good to go,

I'm really tired of having to restart them with the gui, is there anyone out there that can help me with an automated reboot option in the

"Scheduled Tasks
This is the system crontab in which scheduled tasks can be defined."

that i can save and autorestart the miners - once or twice a day lets say

12midnight and 12 midday?

Regards

loki.

I just added this to scheduled tasks under existing line
0 8 * * * /sbin/reboot
0 20 * * * /sbin/reboot

Others suggest this
0 8,20 * * * /etc/init.d/cgminer restart

Restart being safer, but reboot is quicker. I really see the drop off in my hashing graph with restart, but not with reboot.

restart only restarts the cgminer process reboot does a complete reboot of the os

Both of your cron entries are correct for 8 am and pm, the question was for every 12 hours

Thanks guys !

happy to go with 8pm/am or 12pm/am - very much appreciated
