That error seems pretty clear: your node isn’t old enough to do a graceful exit.
I got ingress once again, looks like it was because my allocated space ended an all the data was in use.

Thanks for this tutorial, it’s very helpful.
Do you have some insights on how much time does it take to proceed a successful graceful exit (based on volume of data stored)?
I know it depends also on the connection quality but it would give us an idea.
Thanks!
Hey all,
I’m trying to conduct a graceful exit. I have installed the GUI. I use powershell with the command
"C:\Program Files\Storj\Storage Node\storagenode.exe" exit-status --identity-dir "C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\Storj\Identity\storagenode" --config-dir "C:\Program Files\Storj\Storage Node" --log.output stderr
as documented here. However, i get the error message attached
Did anyone get that before?
Kind Reagrds,
Adam
Try running it in Command prompt as admin not Powershell.
Thanks. That worked. Also in the guide it isn’t clear. You should first
"C:\Program Files\Storj\Storage Node\storagenode.exe" exit-satellite --identity-dir "C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\Storj\Identity\storagenode" --config-dir "C:\Program Files\Storj\Storage Node" --log.output stderr
and then
"C:\Program Files\Storj\Storage Node\storagenode.exe" exit-status --identity-dir "C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\Storj\Identity\storagenode" --config-dir "C:\Program Files\Storj\Storage Node" --log.output stderr
That might be obvious but after seeing it but not before.
Cheers,
Adam
Thank you, fixed the KB article.

root@kali:~# storagenode exit-satellite, for me this command returns “command not found” it does not start graceful exit
has anyone had any success activating graceful exit
Your not running the correct command to start graceful exit. In the topic it says exactly what command to run.
docker exec -it storagenode /app/storagenode exit-satellite --config-dir /app/config --identity-dir /app/identity
docker exec -it storagenode /app/storagenode exit-status --config-dir /app/config --identity-dir /app/identity
What are you putting?
I don’t understand delimited
Just copy and paste the domain name with the port
when I run the first command and agree with Y the screen shot is the result
When it goes to that screen you need to copy and paste which satelite you want to exit from then press enter
I did that and I was successful with four of the five satellites saltlake won’t graceful exit.
I am still getting data from all sats
Have you ran this node for 6 months? Saltlake will not allow you to run graceful exit. Cause its new and you need to have been running for 6 months.
Also graceful exit doesnt start right away it takes a few for the workers to start running.
this node has been running since July, I called for GE due impending hardware failure and don’t want to loose any escrow I have, any idea how long it would take to Finish
Very long time… Took about 4 weeks for my old testing node but it had alot less data then you. Also you can still get DQed with graceful exit so keep that in mind.
