I run this node since 16, September, but since this week almost half of the data become trash, and it is glowing daily, why? Is this normal?
A few bugs were fixed recently that caused data that should have been deleted to remain on your node. Now it is being cleared out.

Yes i noticed my version is 1.112.2, another node running is 1.113.2, do i need to manually update the version?
The update system staggers the rollout of new releases. So you don’t have to do anything to get that node from 1.112 to 1.113… just wait a few days.
Also, yes there has been a spike in trash lately… but even in normal operation you’ll always have some.

Ok i see, so that’s not a problem at all.

for the last few months there was a massive amount of test data filling up nodes. And then it was deleting, creating a massive amount of trash. Read older posts on the forum and you’ll see what an adventure it was. some slower nodes bogged down just from the act of deleting all the files.
You just started Sep 16 so I think you came in after the test wave.
So even “normal” storj activity, will still have a lot of files getting deleted, because clients just decide to delete files. Generally the new ingress will (slowly) exceed the pace of deletion.
Trash files start to be deleted 7 days after they are moved from active blobs into trash and marked officially as “trash”.

Yes i noticed those trash started deleting 2 days ago, but it still glowing, I deployed 2 nano nodes only for testing the profitability, i learned the trash size is an important parameter. Maybe i need to enlarge the nodes, in a nano node, it’s really too much trash, in one node it keep on occupied almost about 30% of the entire space
