ERROR hashstore unable to write hint file

Hello together, on one of my nodes at the start of the node run I’m receiving the error message:

ERROR hashstore unable to write hint file {“Process”: “storagenode”, “satellite”: “121RTSDpyNZVcEU84Ticf2L1ntiuUimbWgfATz21tuvgk3vzoA6”, “store”: “s0”, “error”: “hashstore: open config/storage/hashstore/121RTSDpyNZVcEU84Ticf2L1ntiuUimbWgfATz21tuvgk3vzoA6/s0/meta/hint-0000000000000156.tmp: file exists”, “errorVerbose”: “hashstore: open config/storage/hashstore/121RTSDpyNZVcEU84Ticf2L1ntiuUimbWgfATz21tuvgk3vzoA6/s0/meta/hint-0000000000000156.tmp: file exists\n\tstorj.io/storj/storagenode/hashstore.newAtomicFile:208\n\tstorj.io/storj/storagenode/hashstore.(*Store).writeHintFile.func2:1301\n\tstorj.io/storj/storagenode/hashstore.(*Store).writeHintFile:1318\n\tstorj.io/storj/storagenode/hashstore.NewStore:269\n\tstorj.io/storj/storagenode/hashstore.New:96\n\tstorj.io/storj/storagenode/piecestore.(*HashStoreBackend).getDB:252\n\tstorj.io/storj/storagenode/piecestore.NewHashStoreBackend:117\n\tstorj.io/storj/storagenode.New:604\n\tmain.cmdRun:84\n\tmain.newRunCmd.func1:33\n\tstorj.io/common/process.InitBeforeExecute.func1.2:389\n\tstorj.io/common/process.InitBeforeExecute.func1:407\n\tgithub.com/spf13/cobra.(*Command).execute:985\n\tgithub.com/spf13/cobra.(*Command).ExecuteC:1117\n\tgithub.com/spf13/cobra.(*Command).Execute:1041\n\tstorj.io/common/process.ExecWithCustomOptions:115\n\tmain.main:34\n\truntime.main:283”}

Does anyone know what to do about it? The hashstore opening continues and the node operation therefore as well. But maybe I should do something about the error message.

Thanks and kind regards, Walter

I have seen that a few times. It simply deletes the tmp file itself and tries again. So no need to do anything.
