Hello everybody,
I am running a storagenode since more than 15 months now without problem, but the last days I am more and more worried, as the onlinestatus for saltlake.targigrade.io is decreasing day by day.
I am running the storagenode with docker setup on a Ubuntu server at my homeplace with a not static ip. So I am using a domain with a dyndns service. This worked without problems since 15 months. Now I had to change the domain. Therefor I changed the address in my docker run startscript, stopped the storagenode, recreated it and started it again.
The dashboard shows me, it is online. I am also using UptimeRobot to track, if the storagenode is reachable from extern. UptimeRobot shows me, 100.000% (last 24 hours) , 99.992% (last 7 days), 99.992% (last 30 days).
So far, I don’t find the problem, why the online status for saltlake is dropping.
This satellite is unable to contact your node for some reason.
Please search for “ping satellite failed” for that satellite and copy the last 3-5 such errors from your logs.
I changed back to the old domain temporarily, the problem is solved and I don’t see any errors in the logs.
Beside that, I also registered for a ddnss account and also tried this hostname. Also here everything running smoothly and no problems in the logs.
So I assume that there is no misconfiguration in my docker container or my local network.
This domain sometimes can’t be resolved. Maybe your DNS provider have some throttling for number of requests for this domain.
I asked the team, maybe they could check what could be a problem with this domain.
