Last time (5 November) there was 308 orders in the \orders\archive folder and today there are 816 orders.
Are all these archived orders, unsent orders?
Are these archived orders messing with my node uptime?
I used PowerShell to check orders and I did not find any issue. Please help, Thank you.
I found out that the online % isn’t real time. If your node was offline it will affect online %. It won’t be related to orders or file download failure.
My node run 24/7, I recently restarted my node to get version v1.16.1. At the start of the month I got the unsent order issue. My uptime went down, trying to fix the issue. But still its taking a long time for the uptime to go back up!
Yes you can. The default orders archive deletion interval is 168h, but you may delete them right away unless they are not younger than 48h (when they still can be submitted to be paid).
Thanks! And may i know please, why archive folder is going back up to 7 days?
but valid, are only the ones from last 2 days?
With current ingress traffic, which is like 3 times bigger than normally (hooray!)
1 day is like ~250MB of archived files. In such scenario a node have always a 5 days of these, which seems useless, and takes like ~ 1GB of precious disk space. (often at C:/, often a SSD disk).
I just recently added more C: space to nodes,
and was surprised that just after 7 days, 1,65GB of it is GONE and is just siting in form of archive folder! And which 5/7 of them i can safely delete, DO’h.
Is theres a settings somewhere to set archive to gather not more than i dont know, 3 days of files not 7?
Of course I did, but we will likely get an answer after holidays.
I can only guess, but you definitely can unarchive orders to submit them again, if we had managed to kill a satellite database and would be forced to restore from a backup, we would need to collect all missing information back from nodes - from the orders archive, from the trash, etc.
But if the orders archive would be empty, you will not be paid and we will not be able to charge customers for this usage, so we both will lose this money.
lol but in such extreme scenariuo of lost satelite database, then an archive from last whole month (up to 31 days) should be keept by a nodes, in order to get paid, right? lol
