Hi ,
I have recently (from epoch 259) started using CNCLI leaderlog to estimate when to mint blocks. CNCLI assigned me as a leader twice in epoch 259 and once now in epoch 262. However none have been registered as adopted, confirmed, missed or anything else (ref screenshot below)
Is this an error or just bad luck?
For information I successfully minted a block in epoch 251 so in that sense my pool seems properly configured and connected.
I don’t think that is bad luck - the leaderlog runs the same algorithm as the node itself, it is very accurate and (at least for me) has never failed. Perhaps you’d like to check the logs for at the exact times that leaderlog predicted.
There are folks reporting relay crashes for yet unknown reasons since 1.26.2, which I’ve also seen with Docker. Since then I auto restart my nodes like this …
Although you can resonably expect to win 17.4 blocks per year, the chances of not winning a block in any given epoch sits at 79%. This is a property of the Bernoulli distribution that actually works in favour of your potential delegators.
Thanks for suggestions. Not really sure how to use “sysout”, but the producer node show this when using the command:
journalctl -e -f -u cnode.service
Hi again.
Today I was assigned a new block but this was not minted as the ones before and not registered in any of the categories below:
I have installed Chrony and also rotated my KES several times to assure that the cold.counter used is the latest (which I read somewhere could be an issue). As mentioned above I minted a block in epoch 251. I should also mention that I reinstalled the block node using CNTOOLS after this. Can this be the cause, i.e. perhaps be some problems with my keys, or any ideas what to do to fix this?
