I have following errors from saltlake (I did not see other satellite IDs)

```log

Same here, all 4 of my nodes are showing the same issue. A restart didn’t fix it.

Same issue here all show misconfigured.  
Storj status site shows AP EU US online. Might be an issue on storj’s side with salt lake?

Could you try build `connect-test` tool with:

```bash
go build -o bin/connect-test ./cmd/tools/connect-test

```

And test your node with the ip add port of your node ? All DCS satellite seem normal:

```auto
# https://static.storj.io/dcs-satellites
./connect-test us1.storj.io:7777                      
QUIC	success	12EayRS2V1kEsWESU9QMRseFhdxYxKicsiFmxrsLZHeLUtdps3S
TCP	success	12EayRS2V1kEsWESU9QMRseFhdxYxKicsiFmxrsLZHeLUtdps3S

# test your node with:
./connect-test <your_node_address>:<your_node_port>

```

looks like it is the Saltlake :

```auto
Operation denied by [IAM permission 'spanner.databases.beginOrRollbackReadWriteTransaction' on resource '//spanner.googleapis.com/projects/storj-prod-saltlake/instances/storj-slc-spanner-instance-1/databases/satellite'].\
