My pool missed a block but looking at the server logs everything was fine at this moment.

Here are the Cardano logs :

I see that there is a "TraceAddBlockEvent.TrySwitchToAFork" event during my leader slot, is it the cause of my problem ? Can I do something to avoid that in the future ?

  • How do you see this skipping / missed? I see 40969729, 40969730, 40969731 is that the block serial? Seems legit. Maybe I don't know what slot is.

  • @Tomachi I have this in the logs {"kind":"TraceDidntAdoptBlock","slot":40969730}

Yes, if you forge a block in a slot but the node switches to a different fork before your block is propagated, your node with increment the metric tracking that it forged but didn't adopt it.

  • OK it sounds a bit like an "Uncle" block in Ethereum yes? AFAIK in Ethereum these get acknowledged in the next block but with lesser rewards, I guess it would make the chain harder to forge so makes sense. I wonder if Cardano uses these blocks? Or is the counter just for internal use to diagnose slow propagation issues maybe.
