Hi, New SPO here. Smooth sailing with everything Sync’d, connected working properly ( aside from pool ticker and name not showing up anywhere)
running journalctl -e -f -u returns these noticeable error messages…

What is the server hardware configuration?

Dell server running esxi, 3 cores with 12 gb ram per vm. Walked away from it for an hour and came back to a fully connected BP and relay with new peers… Quick pair of questions if you dont mind. In my current network configuration im using a load balancing router with 2 services from separate ISP’s to act as a failover for the relays. Would it make sense to have a relay for each IP or point both ips to one relay? or are both of those ridiculous ways to accomplish a WAN failover? Second, my Pool has been registered for 24hrs and has not shown ticker/name/website any where so far. would it normally take a few days?.. https://git.io/J8qaG

And 1 node per VM?

5

correct. 1 node per vm on the latest ubunutu server os

Yeah, it’s fine to use one ISP/relay (if one ISP will fail the at least 1 relay will be online)

Try to upload metadata/extended metadata to your domain and re-register the pool certificate

Example:

https://charity-pool.ro/metadata.json

uploaded metadata json to the homepage last night with no success…Would i have an easier time using the github Raw link as my homepage and reregistering?
