i dont know if my node has a serious problem rn but this is what is happening. I am using a rasberry pi and yesterday i saw a really weird and fast blinking in the green light of the ethernet cable so i tried opening dashboard from local network. This didnt work while page was taking forever to open (i was waiting for more than a minute) so i connected with ssh and restarted the device. After 3-4 minutes node was back online and everything ok. After some hours i checked again and now it looked like it has crashed. The green light on the pi was open but not blinking along with the red light. At this time i couldnt connect with ssh and the device was propably shut off. took the power off waited for some time and started again and now i saw that bandwidth usage has been dramatically increased yesterday and while the online score is still good the Audit on the [us2.storj.io:7777](http://us2.storj.io:7777) went to 78%. What all those mean ? What should i do? ---

Same for me on my raspberry ! My audit scores were 100% and they just dropped this morning. And it is so slow to use the dashboard rn that it’s nearly useless… But something linked to the node is pumping hard on m’y broadband because Download is slow on the raspberry now whereas it’s not when I stop the node… When I check the log it says that I have 1 successful audit and 0 error so I don’t understand… I even got kicked out of one of the satellite because of it… It’d be great if there was a solution for this soon before we all get kicked out because of wrongly-based audit… ---

Hello @Matth92110 , Welcome to the forum! @YourHelper1 , @Matth92110 the problem could be related to high activity on your nodes and exhausting RAM. For raspi 3 we uses a RAM limit parameter `--memory=800m` (because 3th generation have only 1GB of RAM). Perhaps you need to specify it too. If you have GUI on your OS, the RAM limiter should be even lower, the GUI is consuming too much RAM but usually not needed - you can do everything from the CLI, so it’s better to avoid installing GUI on your OS on these small computers. > [@Matth92110](#): > > My audit scores were 100% and they just dropped this morning. This could be related to lost or corrupted pieces or timeouts. I would recommend to use scripts from this article to figure out, what’s the reason: [https://support.storj.io/hc/en-us/articles/360042257912-Suspension-mode](https://support.storj.io/hc/en-us/articles/360042257912-Suspension-mode) Also, keep in mind, if you did not [redirected logs](https://docs.storj.io/node/resources/faq/redirect-logs), they could be deleted with the container (when you call `docker rm storagenode` or with the automatic update) and you will not see errors which were before deletion. ---

Hey Alexey ! I added the line in the parameters. I always using the CLI and it was working perfectly since April. Even with the memory cap added, my node has still a weird behaviour (it use a lot of the bandwidth and keep restarting from time to time). What I don’t understand is that it was working perfectly for months without it… Indeed I always use rm storagenode when restarting so I would have a complete view of my logs… I think there is something else there than just the memory cap, because I never had a problem before because of it. ---

It could be your disk is dying or become too slow. If that happen, the storagenode will try to keep data in memory, and when the RAM is exhausted, the OS will kill the container. How is your disk connected? Is it SMR? ---

Hello @Alexey thanks for the fast reply! I have specified this parameter to use less RAM but i just cheked it with htop and i am only using 667MB of the 3.65GB ram … ---

My disk is connected through a self powered usb hub connected to the raspi. I use the raspi as a mediacenter (on a ssd separated from the hdd used for the node) as well and could benefit from it for months (I started it in April) but since Sunday I can’t use it properly at all. I won’t be able to let the node affect the raspi performance too long so if there is no fix I will shut it off pretty soon even if the project was really interesting to me. Anyway if I don’t stop it I’ll probable get kicked out anyway seeing audit number dropping fast now… ---

The symptoms you are seeing could also be signs of a dying SD card. I would check `dmesg` for issues related to the boot drive. ---

You should really look into booting off something other then a SDcard for the future because they cannot handle the amount of reads and writes 24/7. ---

I am using a rasberry pi 4B with a HDD Toshiba Canvio Basic 2.5" - 4TB - USB 3.0 - Black connected in usb 3.0 port. The disk light is actually blinking really fast so yeah maybe it is the disk problem. I just loaded the dashboard on the local network and it seems like my node restarted by itslef… ```auto STATUS Online UPTIME 28m LAST CONTACT 3m ago VERSION v1.36.1 PERIOD August us2.storj.io:7777 Suspension 100 % Audit 85.74 % Online 94.15 % saltlake.tardigrade.io:7777 Suspension 100 % Audit 95 % Online 93.89 % ap1.storj.io:7777 Suspension 100 % Audit 100 % Online 100 % us1.storj.io:7777 Suspension 100 % Audit 90.25 % Online 93.73 % eu1.storj.io:7777 Suspension 100 % Audit 90.25 % Online 93.33 % europe-north-1.tardigrade.io:7777 Suspension 100 % Audit 100 % Online 100 % ``` this is my dashboard… It takes longer than ever but at least i was able to see it. What i did yesterday is adding a 32GB flash as swap to my system which seem to helps a bit as i see from `htop` But about the hard disk, what can i do? ---

(it your folder with pieces) Add a new mont string to your docker run string: Now we have: docker run -d --restar… If you do not have more fast disk, then there is another option - add a new node with a separate disk, new generated identity, new authorization token and different external ports (the right part of the port mapping should not be changed). It will spread the same load to two nodes instead of one. ---

Adding a new node is not possible 🙂 Can you suggest another disk type? What should i look for at it’s specs?? I never thought the disk would face any problem and the only think i looked for was the connection so when i saw usb 3.1 i thought it would be fast enough ☹ @CutieePie i tried this `storage2.max-concurrent-requests: 5` and reboot the device but my node now isn’t even starting. You mean i have to start all over again if i want to do this??? Guys @Alexey @CutieePie is there any way of saving thinks without throwing away the 5 months that my node is already running??? Plz focus on THIS THIS IS THE QUESTION ---

You don’t need to start over. If you can check your node logs, it should give an indication as to why the node isn’t starting. It could just be a typo in the config file. > [@YourHelper1](#): > > is there any way of saving thinks without throwing away the 5 months that my node is already running? There should be a way to get your node running reliably again. Is your USB drive connected directly to the pi, or through a hub? I run my nodes on a rock64 (similar to the pi4) and after I encountered some problems I found my 4TB USB 3.0 disk wasn’t actually able to get enough power from the board itself. After I added an externally powered USB hub in between the drive and my board, I stopped having random corruption issues. [Next page](https://forum.storj.io/t/weird-node-behaviour/14991.md?page=2)
