If you have an army of ant's then you do not switch them from pool to pool chasing a rainbow, understand variance instead
Set the ants to --load-balance and each to three pools or more if you need to any let averaging of the variance between pools do its work for you
Topic: How to manage an ant army? (Read 817 times)
There's a thread here on the forums about adding full api access to the ants. Then you could theoretically use any monitoring software like cgwatcher to manage them.
We point all of ours to a local stratum proxy, and just have to worry about managing that.

this.
I have four and it's a tiny bit annoying so if you have an army I could certainly see it being very difficult. I guess it would be really cool if they were more mature devices and we could set SNMP traps and stuff and monitor them like the rest of our network devices....whoops...looks like I went right into IT guy mode there for a second. We now return you to your regularly scheduled BTC thread.
A friend of mine (cough cough) may or may not have a whole bunch of Antminers S1's.
What is the best way to manage them? (Hypothetically of course).
If you want to e.g. move all of them to a different pool, it's an absolute nightmare to manage via the UI, logging into each miner, changing the settings etc. Same if you want to see which ones have x'd out ASIC's and need to be rebooted.
Was fun at first, but no.
Is there some sort of SNMP like management plugin available for micro-farms consisting of small miners like these?

I have 4 and I would think more the 10 would be work.
You could use MultiMiner and run it as a stratum for them. Then you can change pools and such right through there.
In this thread you could even get help getting it all setup.

I hope it helps and happy mining.
