How can I determine if my node is functioning properly?

StartOS Support

As a relative newbie, I’m trying to figure out if my node is operating correctly and in good health. I used all the default settings during the installation process.

When I navigate to “Services > Bitcoin Core,” I see:

Bitcoin Core
27.1.0
Status: Running

Health Checks

RPC
Success: The RPC server is ready for connections

Synced
Success: Bitcoin Core is synced with the network

I can access my Tor address through the Tor browser (I reach the “Login to StartOS” screen), but when I check the “OS Logs,” “Kernel Logs,” and “Tor Logs,” I notice the following:

os-logs
os-logs925×279 23.8 KB

“Kernel Logs,” and “Tor Logs,” screenshots I unfortunately cannot upload due to restrictions on this platform.

I’m having trouble interpreting this information. Is this normal? Should I take any action?

Your reply is much appreciated.

Every StartOS Service has “health checks”, these are the statuses you see under each service name and that should always be green when started. To check the health of each service, they are regularly checked as you see in your OS logs.

Your Start9 server is working normally, and working normally is the default state. You’ll only need to debug when something goes wrong, and if nothing has gone wrong, there’s no reason to debug!

Thank you for the quick response and the clarification. I’m pleased to read that everything is functioning properly and that no debugging is required. I can rest easy later! :zzz: :bed:

Thanks once more.
