Back but have some Q's

[boelle]

@Vadim

did you checked End of lines?

Yes. Think i have checked 10 times now

[alpharabbit]

Don’t waste time with multinode dashboard bugs. No one will fix it.

[boelle]

at least i know its a bug

and to be hones i watch the individual dashboards more than the multinode one so might even delete it

[boelle]

@alpharabbit

but I don’t think it is worth the additional cost.

hmm if no one chimes in then i might look at doing a gracefull exit on 3 of the nodes and wait for them to delete data and then allocate space to the first node instead, just need to figure how to do that in a compose file

EDIT:

Graceful Exit Guide (new procedure as of 2023-10-?)

Warning: Read this carefully before you start Please read the following information carefully and ask any questions your might have before executing graceful exit. Once graceful exit is started there is currently no way to stop or cancel it. Think about the consequences twice before you call it. Requirements: Storage node has joined the network more than 15 months ago (requirement temporarily reduced to 6 months). Storage node is healthy and hasn’t lost any significant amount of data. Disqua…

so it cant be undone…. some thoughts: if i ever want to setup a node behind another Ip is is better just to start fresh again ? why i thought of gracefull exit is more because i want to behave nice and civil and not being an “A55HOL”

EDIT2:

@thepaul

Storage node has joined the network more than 15 months ago (requirement temporarily reduced to 6 months).

so if shorter than that (which) is my case then i just stop and delete the node?

[alpharabbit]

@boelle

behave nice

For the network it doesn’t matter if exit was graceful or not, repair work will be the same. So ask yourself if accumulated payment (cents I guess) is worth to do a graceful exit.

[boelle]

i dont mind if it takes 30 days, but if i cant do it due to the nodes being less than 6 months its a no brainer to me… it would just be pull the plug

[alpharabbit]

According to stats only 4 percent of exits are graceful.

[boelle]

so not a lot do it…. but if i want to take the plunge, should i do it with a command in cli/prompt? or can i edit my compose file and do it that way? just like the setup option when setting up the node?

[alpharabbit]

Remove node from compose file and delete data folder.

[boelle]

yes, but as a test or learning experience how would i have started the exit procedure from either compose file or cli

EDIT: the guides says: storagenode exit-satellite

but is that a command to be entered after ssh in to the node? or how? feels like the guide is missing a step

[Alexey]

@boelle

so anyone knows why i get 2 wallets listed in the multi node dashboard when only 1 address is used for all 4 nodes?

There should be four - two on the one page and two on the next one. Perhaps you do not see a scrolling.

Yes, you need to open a terminal and use the provided commands, see

Graceful Exit Guide - Storj Docs

[boelle]

hmm, worked as the guide said…. i assume the error is due to the low age of the node

By starting a graceful exit from a satellite, you will no longer receive new uploads from that satellite.
This action can not be undone.
Are you sure you want to continue? [y/n]
