Watch utility for the ethminer - Ethereum GPU mining worker software.

Description

This is a watch utility to provide steady operation of the ethminer - Ethereum GPU mining worker software.

This program was designed to do the following:

  • To recover from crashes in the ethminer by restarting it.
  • To restart ethminer if the hash-rate is outside of the provided range.
  • To restart ethminer if the mining pool hasn't accepted hashes for a while.
  • To reboot the mining rig after a certain number of restarts of the ethminer.
  • To maintain the diagnostic event log of the operation of ethminer in a persistent text file.

For more details check this blog post.
