I run few nodes and noticed that uptime checks almost always below recommendation. But the fact is that nodes are operating strictly 24/7, machines as well as network equipment run on ups. I know, that my node was offline for max 5min., but i see only ±98% uptime checks.
I started to dig in, and found strange thing (check the bottom line).
Tests are made in different locations, on different ISP’s.
How is this possible? With such a loss of pockets nodes shouldn’t work at all, but they run And could it affect my uptime checks?
Dont care about uptime checks, that function is faulty and has already been discussed.
Ping is not a reliable measurement for uptime. Some networking equipment will ignore or give ping responses a lower priority.
What does a regular ping show you? I get 0 losses to stefan. I’m in Sweden and as this is preffered EU satellite for some reason most of our traffic will go there.
--- prod.stefan-benten.de ping statistics ---
12 packets transmitted, 12 packets received, 0.0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 46.399/54.179/65.689/5.982 ms
And could it affect my uptime checks?
