Whilst the benefits of an increase in geographic spread, machine classification and processing architecture are already being felt by the network, this hasn't come without its fair share of issues. The devices themselves require a little preparation in the form of the installation of an OS, and of Docker.
Docker is widely supported, but making sure the machine has the correct version with the right permissions can take a little technical expertise. Firewall configurations can on occasion pose an issue, although this is often easier to diagnose.
Whilst we can't provide support for third-party applications, to help our community members detect common operational issues, and to help us diagnose unhealthy nodes we've added a new check command to edge-cli which provides a clear list of requirements and performance tests to cover the majority of common snags, and we'll be rolling out a lot more over the coming months.
Update your current version
sudo apt update
sudo apt install edge-cli
Running the check command
sudo edge-cli check
Docker setup check
A failed docker setup check is a sign of improper installation.
