[Question] Chia FULL_NODE warning about chiadog HOT 12 CLOSED

You can go about tracing this in the debug.log from Chia as follows:

1. Find out the exact timestamp of the event by checking chiadog logs
2. Filter out all finished signage points with cat debug.log | grep Finished
3. You expect to have all of them in order, but you're going to find that you're missing number 21 for that timestamp.

This is a common problem on less powerful harvesters (like RaspberryPi) or if you're plotting on the same machine. There's a section in the README addressing this. You can follow instructions there to disable these notifications if it creates too much noise.

As I understand it, your farmer is missing out on participation in these challenges but skipping 2-3 signage points every hour is <1% of the total number, so unless you're chasing 99,99% uptime, you should be good 😃

There is already an issue on the official chia-blockchain for the raspberry PI issue.

I have mitigated missed / unfinished signage points on my Raspberry Pi by moving Chia's config directory away from the SD card to an external device. If this helps or does not help your situation, please report back, here in this issue and over there in that issue.

Thanks @flotti455 ! I have just moved my ~/.chia directory to an external SSD, will give it a couple of days then report back.

@noeRls not possible at the moment. PRs are welcome, or you can remove the FinishedSignagePoint handler from here

Yes, I farm with Pi 4 8gb RAM model.
I thought it is recommended to farm with it in chia wiki farming hardware.

1. Could it be because during that time I copy a plot over there and caused the issue?
2. What is your recommendation machine spec to perform better in chia farming?
3. The above issue happen in the farm / harvest service?
4. Should I separate the full node farms and harvest with another pi?

@Handri-Kosada I also have these errors running on a Pi 4 8gb, the Pi is doing very little else so it is probably just something we have to live with at the moment. For what's it's worth, I have been receiving less skipped signage points with each update to the chia node software, so make sure you are running the latest version!

@kilbot you using 1.0.4 or 1.0.5 ?
I am not 1.0.4 currently.

from chiadog.

FWIW, @kilbot it's been a couple days, do you still see that error?

from chiadog.

Hi @Starttoaster, yes I am still seeing those warnings about once or twice an hour. That is after moving the .chia folder to a SSD and continues after the recent v1.1 update.

There has also been a lot of network sync issues so I've been more focused on them lately 😅

Hi @martomi, I can not find information in the README on how to disable this type of notification.
