My Storage Node is still trying to contact the 118U (Stefan B) satellite

Did you tried to run a Graceful Exit on the 118 satellite?

Same for me on nodes that did GE on stefan benten

Several months ago, correct.

to be fair it’s rather rare, and i’m sure there are more important things to deal with than a meaningless log entry because of the first satellite to be disconnected from the v3 network still has a few loose connections hanging around…

just because you unplug your server, doesn’t magically remove the cabling… i’m sure it’s on the todo list… it’s just very near the bottom.
