Node stats are based on the nodes on data. So old traffic will never disappear.
Are you sure that audits and repair even work on storj-sim with dev defaults?
It certainly used to work I think itās not running ATM as old data (data that is uploaded after the backup I restored was taken)and only 2
nodes
I use to see the tasks running in storj-sim output
Hello @1qazx
I created a node yesterday, but I still havenāt received any traffic in 25 hours.
The node is online and there are no errors in the log.
Here is my node ID 1hPLiv5uAkDNy6CECEe4e2BLWViYZMbbXfLfT9pEmfHBH9TaCN
Cool was going to ask about logs but until I fix 8 test nodes or we find 8 more there probably wonāt be much traffic because I canāt upload or download with less than ten nodes I do plan to fix this asap and I am sorry itās slow @jag48 and @Pentium100 I plan to fix the 8 nodes so I can start to upload and back upy db to us1 for stability but thanks everyone who has joined so far
UPDATE : I have written the backup script and it backsup to us1 every 5 minutes but I canāt manage to fix the nodes and do t know if / how I can force storj Sim to make 10 more (@littleskunk how could I manage this)even though itās late might keep trying to fix the nodes
UPDATE:I can now confirm that the reason for no audits is there are not enough pieces to audit(my satellite log said pretty much this) so I must find a way to recreate /repair my storj Sim nodes (or do it manually but that takes more time)or get extra nodes I hope more people would like to join us but I am still working on getting the 10 nodes of my own for now
@Pentium100 and @jag48 worst case now that I have made a backup script would you guys mind if you had to change the satellite url because with the new scripts I have written it will be much faster and more stable it backsup to us1

Hello.
I donāt mind. Say what is required of me. If necessary, I can recreate the node. Letās fix all the problems in the early stages:)

But to make it easier:
- Generate a new identity, you do not need to sign it (no need for authorization token from Storj).
- Create a new node as you normally would with that identity (donāt forget to use a different port and forward tcp and udp), but add this to the config.yaml file
# if true, uses peer ca whitelist checking
server.use-peer-ca-whitelist: false
# list of trust sources
storage2.trust.sources: 12nErpw5894bSadEPfYLc4PJQ6ZuFHNhqhXHTAYdPsSzBrNcUiX@de-tube.ddns.net:10000
- Start the node, it should connect to the satellite.
If you have any questions, ask them

Thanks i did try to install new nodes manually but while doing this storj Sim died so @jag48 and @Pentium100 I will change the itās and get it up and running again ASAP some time today I hope again thanks guys for joining
Anyone know what could be doing this now not even a new sat is starting guys
I am so sorry for this but again I plan to get it up asap (I work only on this day/night)

Unfortunately, I do not know how to solve your problem, maybe you should ask the developers. Take your time and fix all the bugs, Iāll be waiting for you.
starting big projects takes months or years, at bestā¦
you have an interesting goal, iāll gladly supply a node or two.
when iām convinced itās worth the effort, maybe it is, maybe it isnātā¦
havenāt really been paying to much attention to this, but its interestingā¦
have you done the math, i mean decentralized storage isnāt great for everythingā¦ but atleast in theory it should be great for streamingā¦ and yetā¦
it does also need to be profitable for the node operators, which means you will need to go through some numbers, to see if what you propose actually makes senseā¦
the concept isnāt very useful, if it isnāt beneficial for all involved.
and there are certainly also benefits to a centralized streaming approach.
i like the idea and hope it succeeds, but that doesnāt mean its viableā¦
only by understanding the economics of it, can it be vaguely suggested that itās a viable path.
I have made an example using us1 it works great to stream and also the way I plan to pay the nodes has also been tested but thanks for understanding It can take so long
The new url /satellite address is but I plan to iron out more bugs so anyone who hopes to avoid the bugs I will tell you all once my satellite has been up and stable for a few weeks

OK, when you are ready, please notify me Iāll start the node.
Are you running on release defaults now?
I am running the default storj-sim
I guess itās good at first, but you probably should try to run a ārealā satellite at some point. Iām pretty sure the sim version would have some settings optimized for ease of use, but not for actual production use.
Afaik a real satellite is much the same as storj Sim (I thought even the same software) just with the other services running externally isnāt it?
A storj satellite will need an uplink and all of the other parts to afaik a satellite by it self would be impossible to upload data to as the uplink is the part responsible for this but I do plan to distribute the services like uplink but it will take time ATM still working on satellite dashboard
And I know itās optimised for testing but I plan to change this for my project
And at the moment optimised for testing is what I need as this could take some time
Iāve mentioned this before. No itās not. Not when you run with dev defaults. Data protection is not set up for long term reliability and parallelisation is much lower leading to significantly slower uploads and downloads. So performance will be sub par and data protection not guaranteed. They are dev defaults for a reason.
Edit: I responded this before you added the rest of the message
I plan to research the data protection and add it and I have noticed that the upload is fairly slow but I believe this is because storj-sim is running many services and some of them get run more than they would in production
(The reason Iām setting up my satellite dashboard so I can test modifying these Configs/settings to work for my project
@BrightSilence do you know what changes specifically I must make ???
