Hi,
Before additional troubleshooting - my windows server storage node services did not auto-start after a server reboot resulting in a 4 days downtime (on vacation and have limited access)
The services are set to be started at startup (as expected) but did not (after 4 days)
My node has DAS storage, after the reboot my drive is available. The last 20 lines won’t show anything as obviously my node has started. Does the service log to the event log in case of failure??
You can search in log is there problem on date of the reboot. You can use the powershell command sls to search on exact date.
About services failures the Windows log information to the system events log. You can search for the errors there too.
no issues in the Storagenode logs. I only found two Event log entries, one for edgeupdate and one for edgeupdatem. They are complained that the service was not started (true) - but no other info.
But both should start the service, depending on any dependencies?
Your suggestion to view the latest 20 lines of the log did not show up anything, as I also commented about.
Running cat “$env:ProgramFiles/Storj/Storage Node/storagenode.log” | Select-String -pattern error
Did not show anything important either.
Assuming if you installed your node in the default location you would run this, but if you didnt you would need to run the location where you installed it.
If you installed the storagenode to other place, not default, then the config.yaml should be in that place too. You should use the path to the new location in the scripts above.
Yes I believe it does. I may have installed in the default location when I first tested the GUI on windows, But I reinstalled after and I installed it in a different location so my logs were in another place. So if you did the same I would double check to make sure.
