Hello there, my node was offline for such a long time (\>1 Month) and when i restarted it on 30.08 the first thing i did was to Update to 1.10.1 and now the Node runs. The suspensions are gone (except saltlake) but now more and more Errors come: First error: Error: bandwidthdb error: disk I/O error: bad file descriptor –\>This Error is shown very offten if i monitore the node over the CLI-Dashboard 2020-09-02T16:01:45.400Z ERROR piecestore failed to add order {“error”: “ordersdb error: database is locked”, “errorVerbose”: “ordersdb error: database is locked\n\[tstorj.io/storj/storagenode/storagenodedb.(\*ordersDB](http://tstorj.io/storj/storagenode/storagenodedb.(*ordersDB)).Enqueue:53\n\[tstorj.io/storj/storagenode/piecestore.(\*Endpoint](http://tstorj.io/storj/storagenode/piecestore.(*Endpoint)).saveOrder:665\n\[tstorj.io/storj/storagenode/piecestore.(\*Endpoint](http://tstorj.io/storj/storagenode/piecestore.(*Endpoint)).Upload:409\n\[tstorj.io/common/pb.DRPCPiecestoreDescription.Method.func1:996\n\tstorj.io/drpc/drpcmux.(\*Mux](http://tstorj.io/common/pb.DRPCPiecestoreDescription.Method.func1:996%5Cn%5Ctstorj.io/drpc/drpcmux.(*Mux)).HandleRPC:107\n\[tstorj.io/common/rpc/rpctracing.(\*Handler](http://tstorj.io/common/rpc/rpctracing.(*Handler)).HandleRPC:56\n\[tstorj.io/drpc/drpcserver.(\*Server](http://tstorj.io/drpc/drpcserver.(*Server)).handleRPC:111\n\[tstorj.io/drpc/drpcserver.(\*Server](http://tstorj.io/drpc/drpcserver.(*Server)).ServeOne:62\n\[tstorj.io/drpc/drpcserver.(\*Server](http://tstorj.io/drpc/drpcserver.(*Server)).Serve.func2:99\n\[tstorj.io/drpc/drpcctx.(\*Tracker](http://tstorj.io/drpc/drpcctx.(*Tracker)).track:51”} 2020-09-02T16:01:45.400Z INFO piecestore uploaded {“Piece ID”: “XQ7KAEFWXNBI43ZDM3MXKS6QMRNOXFF7O55WTWFQ4P2RGZMWYXYA”, “Satellite ID”: “12EayRS2V1kEsWESU9QMRseFhdxYxKicsiFmxrsLZHeLUtdps3S”, “Action”: “PUT”} –\> Such as this Errors come all the time and after such an Error no Data will be Stored etc. –\> After this Error Bandwith egress stoped at 11.1MB and Bw-Ingress at 174.2MB –\> Also the used Disk space didn´t change any more –\>After Restart the node works just fine until such error comes again As i just saw the node works just fine until i open the CLI-Dashboard or the WEB-Interface.

To be as clear as pos.: My HDD is Connected to a “SATA-to-USB-Converter” and this Converter is connected directly via USB to the Server. If you need it, my Server runds Debian 10 with all Updates etc. ---

It could be possible the connection is not stable hence the disk I/O error. Please check disk for errors too. ---

I had a “disk working just fine”, except that I noticed after few months that data is silently corrupted _somewhere_. I only noticed it because I manually checksummed some important files. This _somewhere_ turned out to be a bad USB cable, when I started testing each component separately. And it was just a bit or two per gigabyte of data—not enough to casually spot it, but definitely enough to break most large files. Make sure your infrastructure is ok. ---

So i checked that and checksummed a 10GB and a 100GB file and copied the files multible times (the 10GB over 50 times the 100GB file over 20 times) and checksummed the copy and each time the checksumm’s were identical.
