The probes, the unit check and the public checks ran once a day with 26h windows, justified as "a multi-week initial sync on a rotating disk". That stopped being true: the node is synced, and a cold explorer page now renders in 29s and a warm one in 0.2s - polling every 5 minutes is what keeps it warm. A dead monerod could go unnoticed for a day. Back to the standard 5m cadence and 11m heartbeat; the per-host service_health override on monerod-box is gone.

#
|
|
# The disk is known by two names, for two different moments:
|
|
#
|
|
# monero_data_label is its identity once it holds a filesystem. Every run looks
|
|
# for it first, and if it is there the device name is never consulted at all -
|
|
# a routine run cannot be broken by a device name, because it does not read one.
|
|
#
|
|
# monero_data_device is used ONLY on the first run, to find the blank disk and
|
|
# create that filesystem. It must be a name fixed before the VM boots: Proxmox
|
|
# passes the slot ("scsi1") in as the disk's serial, and udev publishes it under
|
|
# /dev/disk/by-id. That survives reboots and `qm disk move` alike. NEVER
|
|
# /dev/sdX: the kernel hands those out in probe order, and on 2026-10-04 a reboot
|
|
# after moving this disk to the SSD swapped sda and sdb - the value written here
|
|
# then named the ROOT disk.
