Nodes - no earnings

[Joe_226]

Hello,
Both my pNode and vNode has not earn anything for over a week. Anything I can do to fix the issue or just wait it out longer? Thanks ahead guys

It can take some time, it is completely normal. Is everything setup correctly?

My personal longest time of not earning, for one Node, is 13 days. My Node was perfectly fine though.

The Algorithm of Probability for Node Selection

The Issue Probably the most asked question is, is my Node still running? People get nervous when no earnings show up on a daily or weekly basis. Unfortunately, that is how it is. The more nodes come online, the more the competition to get selected increases. My personal longest time of not earning, for one Node, is 23 days. My Node was perfectly fine though. Estimate your Chances The probability for a Node to be selected to earn in x days, can be calculated using the following formula: k = …

Also check all your settings!

Yes, i believe so. Well, it’s not notifying me that anything is wrong. Plus I ran the sudo docker to make sure vnode is running and it is.

Not earning for a week is not uncommon. If you have been running a Node Virtual for a longer period of time, make sure you have performed the update to reduce diskspace.

When all of the diskspace available has been used, the Node Virtual will not be able to join the network to earn. It needs space to get in sync with the shard it is going to be attached to.

When was this update and how can I know if mine is up to date

March 25th that is before you joined the platform. You should be fine.
