Question about Storj Node

Basically your only option is to kill them (and destroy associated identities as they’re going to get disqualified - double check you delete the right ones!!). Be sure your decision is final: Once a node has been disqualified, there is no turning back.

You’ll lose all held amount for these nodes, which should be very low at this stage. The network is automatically gonna take care of repairing data that your nodes were storing.

Yes, I already killed them. The bandwidth of each node from 2XXMB to 6XXMB per day .Looking forward to the traffic increase after full vetted.

@Alexey
I only kept 1 node 13 days ago, and monitor the vetted progress day by day.

,the saltlake satellite successCount became to 100+, does it means 100% vetted by this satellite? As the pic show, the biggest ingress data is 10 Nov 2020,

then the bandwidth is dropping every day. Now the ingress data is less than 1G per day,

Is any suggestion from you ?

It show not first sattelite 100+ but all audit count is 117, it is only 27, 30, 24 and 26 audits you have.
Audition takes about a month long

And bandwidth is droped at all, so nothing you can do. It is not mining, real people use it.

Sometimes, I feel like saying “It is not mining, real tests use it”… :sweat_smile:

it’s not mining… okay, so what… space pimping

We have had term “farming” for that process in the past, because you prepare your disks and nodes, and waiting for data to grow. Then you harvest tokens from customers in exchange of usage of your farm

The 100+ should be satellite saltlake.

Thanks for the info. It feels like a toy. A mature system shouldn’t be so unstable.

Storj is one of the few options in true distributed cloud storage, and the customer access through tardigrade has only been live for a bit over 6 months, so yeah it’s a 3rd gen prototype atleast of the backbone.

the instability is most likely because Storj Lab semi manually controls the test data, so at times a new sequence isn’t started or other operations needs to be done before test data restarts.

just like a SNO needs to scan their drives and verify that their system is operational, maybe do a reboot or some such thing to make everything run smoothly…
tho the argument could be made that this is only due to computers still not being a mature technology, in the future reboots will most likely be seen as antiquated.

So in some sense it is a toy, because it’s brand new… people haven’t had a chance to really figure out where it fits into their infra structure, as distributed cloud storage has very distinct advantages compared to other storage solutions.

also there is the whole, it’s basically brand new issue… just because you invented the telephone and made a telephone network, doesn’t mean people will flock to using it…
until they discover how useful it is… and who is first to use it… corporate / stock brokers
just like they where the first to use the telegraph.

the tardigrade network could explode in utilization, but that the real world utilization is still kinda low… well we are basically a data center with very few users…
if there are 6000 or more nodes, then even 6 petabyte uploaded is only 1 terabyte for each node…

i’m seeing like 4gb ingress and thats 2/3 of what it should be because i share a subnet with another node.

so 6gb ingress to this point today, and since data is split evenly across all nodes, then if we assume most nodes have a little space free… for this theoretical experiment … nah lets say 50% is full … then we should have atleast accounted more for that.

so 6gb ingress x 3000 nodes with free space, so the network has gotten 18 TB uploaded in the last 8 hours or so… sure for the size of the network it’s nothing… but it’s certainly no inactive, and taking into account it’s only been running for 6 months… if that in fact is close to the real numbers thats not to bad.

other reasons test data may stop is to better monitor uninterrupted natural network behavior…

but yeah it sort of is a toy atm, but it should be ready to do enterprise level work.

Great analysis. Let’s look forward to the toy in future!
