Hardware failure

Posted 4 months ago by DarthPikachu

The hits just keep on coming. The drive that I am using to store the blockchain is now dead so I have to replace it.

Last synced block is 944,700

Apologies to my channel partners.

Update: got a new drive and currently copying the blockchain data. I suspect it will be another ~7 hours until I am back online and fully synched.

Current block height: 944760

Update at 944797: ordering another power supply so I will not be back online today.

Update at 945105: syncing again from the past few days. Hoping to be up in the next hours. Will try to provide a root cause once stable.

Damn, hardware getting us both! j.publius node drive failed. I'm giving CLN another go. This time I separated CLN and electrs onto an SSD, and kept knots and RTL on HDD. Storage is so expensive these days, and I found I can use a 250 GB SSD in this manner and keep the costs lower.

Oh no!!!The hardware component is the worst part; and storage costs seem to continue to rise.
