cardano-node goes down after "cardano-cli query pool-params"

Question

Making this query to my cardano-cli

cardano-cli query pool-params \
    --stake-pool-id pool13crd2ljx87988umk22er6ynwadfwdqupdpcq6prc6v59z62kxse \
    --mainnet

Makes my cardano-node goes down. Is this normal behaviour? I guess not. How can I check why is this happening?

This is the log:

I don't have any problem with queries like:

cardano-cli query utxo --address ...

Answer 1

There is a high likelyhood that you run out of memory when running that query, as it involves querying subset of ledger, which can cause a spike to your memory usage (if it is marginal to minimum recommendations). Assuming you're on Linux , you can check via dmesg -T | grep cardano to see if it was caused by OOM event.

If not, you'd need to check logs and provide more details
