I could have been one of those basement dwelling multi-PB people. :D

I grew up though.

 

lol, I never had the money or honestly the need for that much space.

 

I am sitting around ~100TB of used space right now and it is growing but it would take me a LONG time to reach 1PB. Not really sure what people are storing to use that much space to be honest.

 

At the current rate I am only gaining maybe ~10tb/year.

trying to figure out:

1) what's the minimum I need to run, of each coin (node? farmer+wallet?)

2) how to script it to start automatically if needed.

3) will it use less memory overall to do so, and will it be a significant impact.

 

one of the difficulties, is any %coin% start <cmd> you run, is bound under the PS or CMD window you kicked it off from. so if you kill that window, it kills those functions. need to figure out how to:

a) not have it do that

b) prevent me from accidentally killing the PS/CMD window.

I figured out how to launch the GUI's for each program awhile back when setting up the GPU mining.

 

start "" "Full path to program here"

The blank double quotes are the key to getting it to work.

 

The issue here is that the blockchains sit at the select key screen without user interaction. I am not sure if they start mining without clicking the key.

 

I know linux has a way or running programs in the background so they are not connected to the terminal window. I assume windows has that as well if you want to run the CLI versions of the blockchains.

well as I suspected i can do it.  'start farmer' kicks off farmer, wallet, full_node, harvester, and daemon.

it binds EVERYTHING under that command prompt though.

memory is lower: 9GB vs 11GB for 11 coins running.

 

now to decide if that's worth it.

I'd like to figure out a way to monitor/mine/farm all the logs for all the forks, to see their activity in one place.

 

 

Ditto. It would be amazing if it could be dockertized like the machinaris docker. It already supports chia and flax. If the rest could be added it would be the one stop shop.

This is a perfect case for dockers, I wish each blockchain had it's own docker.

 

This way if one crashed it would only kill that one and I would know which one it was that started the chain of events. Also you can map different ports to the program to address conflicts easily.

 

Restarted it a few times today as it keeps crashing.

 

I am now back to "basics" with just 5 running, these all ran fine together before so should do ok now. Will slowly add one a day or so and see how it goes if this works.
