Can someone let me know how do I set different location pool information in secondary and tertiary pool information on Antminer S9? All I can find on main page of Kano website is stratum+tcp://stratum.kano.is:3333 and port variations. Or you people set any other pool information in those second and third pool info? Sorry for my bad English.
Ports don't matter unless you are having trouble with port 3333 due to your miners.
Sometimes internet providers block ports and can cause problems like that but I doubt they'd block 3333
However, some people find that only certain ports work and everything else is blocked, so you can use the other ports in that case, and usually 80 should be fine.
Anyway, your setup would depend on where you are, to decide which should be first.
Normally you'd use stratum+tcp://stratum.kano.is:3333 first if you are in the USA on the west coast of central USA
If you are on the east cost or north east canada, then you'd use stratum+tcp://nya.kano.is:3333
If you are in Europe you'd use either stratum+tcp://de.kano.is:3333 or stratum+tcp://nl.kano.is:3333
From the asia area you'd use either stratum+tcp://jp.kano.is:3333 or stratum+tcp://sg.kano.is:3333
Second would be the next nearest node, or if you use stratum+tcp://stratum.kano.is:3333 first then 2nd would be stratum+tcp://nya.kano.is:3333
For third, I'd suggest you use a PPS pool as I mentioned recently.

An aside that some may not know:
If you have a petahash or more on west USA, I can setup so you can access a node there that is white listed for large miners only
Of course anyone with more than a petahash always mining at the pool, I'll try setup a node near them if they want, of course that depends on where they are, but I don't mind setting up a white listed node for anyone with that or more hash rate.
These nodes only allow data from the pool, from me and of course the miners who are white listed, they completely ignore other data.
(Edit: oh they also of course have a bitcoin node running on them
)
PM me if you want that and have more than a petahash that will stay on the pool.

Edit: also another thing that few may know about, that I've had on the pool for years now, is that large miners can divide their payouts up to multiple addresses if they request it.
There's a different address management page that I can enable for an account, that allows you to enter multiple addresses (up to whatever limit I set) and you also specify the ratio of the reward that each address gets.
So e.g. you could send 10% to one address and 90% to another etc.
Again PM me if you need this
The cloud mining changes will allow more control over this, but I've left those changes incomplete for now since no one mining on the pool has enough hash rate for that, so completing those changes got down graded in the TODO list to: 'who knows when if ever'
The main part of that change was actually a change in account control that is live already.
Most will have noticed this with the 'Verify' option on your account - this is just one part of the account control I added where I can set various options on accounts (including saying they are cloud master and cloud accounts) and the web and KanoDB treat each differently with different web pages and different access control.
The part missing for cloud mining is mainly just the new web pages and a table to store the cloud settings.
