Hello @support. I have a weird situation with a validator. It had beacon/shard stalls so I eventually deleted all data and started sync from scratch. Now the validator is pending shard 7 but syncing shard 3?

@radonm,

Stop the Docker container. Delete unneeded shard data. Re-run the installation/setup script and you should be good to go.
