Chain extended new tip

Hello all,

I’m looking for some assistance with setting up a stake pool.

I have a setup with 1 BP at my house and 1 Relay node in Azure.

The only things that are logged in the BP and Relay nodes are the ones below.
Logs from BP:

Logs from Relay:

Even if I change “TraceBlockFetchDecisions” to false we see this all the time:

Is this common behavior? I’d like to have some confirmation. I’m using version 1.26.0 of cardano-node/cli.

Thank you.

Hi!

Great - your node is syncing - and the log tells what is the current slot height
Once it is reaching the current height - explorer.cardano.org - that means the node is in sync
use cardano-cli query tip --mainnet to check the BlockNo and compare it what you see on the explorer
