This morning I have one miner showing a 3.75G best share, another showing 1.9G, and another showing 15.24G.  Come on, let's take care of this block!

Hey kano,

Not pressing or such but...How's the S3 bin coming? Just thought I'd ask 'cuz you don't have enough to do.    Grin

I know..smartass in every crowd
It'll just be a tar file you extract into the /overlay/ folder - since flashing an S3 risks screwing it up and you can't fix it without extra hardware if you do screw it up.

The S3 binary itself already works (if you build it from current git) but bitmain does stupid stuff in their cgminer/web interface that I'm (slowly) fixing.
It averages well under 100% CPU (load average under 1.0) and doesn't have delays due to not getting work.
Previously the cgminer binary for the S3 was a simple replacement of the crap Bitmain supplied.  The update process was:
Code:
/etc/init.d/cgminer stop
cd /usr/bin
mv cgminer cgminer_bak
wget http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/antminer/s3/4.6.1-141020/cgminer
chmod +x cgminer
/etc/init.d/cgminer start
If you're doing things to replace the /overlay/ directory, you're doing a hell of a lot more than simply providing a binary that replaces cgminer.  Many thanks for addressing Bitmain's shoddy software!  I'm looking forward to the release Smiley.

So what is the BEST guide, in your opinion, on how/where to replace the S3 firmware?  There are many hits for such a query.
If you want to update right now, then what I posted is what you need to do.  Otherwise, once kano finishes his work, I'm sure he'll provide instructions on how to upgrade.  Looking at what he's written so far, it'll likely be just getting the tar ball and exploding it in the /overlay/ directory.

The S3 is a work horse, I love mine.  I will love it even more with updated (better) software, woo!

I wonder if mega mines like HaoBTC will update all 11,000+ of their units, and how long that would take...

Speaking of bins and all... what firmware should I run on an S5 for your pool.
The one bitmain provided or the modified one from nicehash ?

The cgminer binary -ck provided.

i like the graphs from the nicehash firmware.

although its strange to see what appears to be one hashing board stop working for awhile and then turn back on.

my s3s are running nicely with the bin from westhash.

i did set the queue to 1 to keep the small cpu from being overloaded..

they go for days without restarts.

I just restarted ckpool
Hash rate was quite low (dropped 400TH/s) so I did a restart
Shouldn't have been much (or any) failover since it was an immediate restart.
Should have just seen a reconnect message in your cgminers.

Edit: In case anyone was wondering - it had dropped 400TH/s for 5 minutes when I decided to do the restart

I think a whale just went offline

Having issues connecting to pool, miners say its alive by work requests a failing and miners are switching to backup pools. I have them in 4 different networks and ISP's and all acting the same. Maybe a bigger DDOS or internal issue.
