Subnet Management - opn46 (Application)

This topic is intended to capture Subnet Management activities over time for the opn46 subnet, providing a place to ask questions and make observations about the management of this subnet.

DFINITY will submit an NNS proposal today to reduce the notarization delay on the subnet, opn46, similar to what has happened on other subnets in recent weeks (you can find all details in this forum thread).

Voted to adopt proposal 133076. The initial_notary_delay_millis is set to 300 and the subnet_id is correct.

Proposal 133447

1 down node switched out for another node at the same location, same node provider. Looks good, I’ve voted to adopt.

The above subnet information is illustrated below, followed by a node reference table:

Map Description
  • Red marker represents a removed node (transparent center for overlap visibility)
  • Green marker represents an added node
  • Blue marker represents an unchanged node
  • Highlighted patches represent the country the above nodes sit within (red if the country is removed, green if added, otherwise grey)
  • Light grey markers with yellow borders are examples of unassigned nodes that would be viable candidates for joining the subnet according to formal decentralisation coefficients (so this proposal can be viewed in the context of alternative solutions that are not being used)

Voted to adopt proposal 133447.

Having IC_PrometheusTargetMissing Degraded node replaced by a healthy one from the
same provider Sygnum Bank has no changing effect on decentralization.

Voted to adopt proposal 133447.

This proposal replaces node 2kvun which appears in the dashboard as “Status: Degraded / Status Details: IC_PrometheusTargetMissing”. As shown in the proposal and verified using the DRE tool, decentralisation parameters are unchanged and remain within the requirements of the target topology.

Voted to adopt proposal 133447. The proposal replaces the degraded node 2kvun (Dashboard Status: Degraded, IC_PrometheusTargetMissing) with the node ahbuw on subnet opn46. There is no impact in the Nakamoto Coefficients as verified through the Dre tool.

Voted to adopt proposal 134281. The proposal seeks to remove a cordoned node from the subnet and specifies that the associated data centre is being offboarded “after 48 months”. Decentralisation parameters are unchanged.The necessary context is provided by this forum post and associated discussion. For future proposals of this type I recommend that the background context be included in the proposal text for ease of verification.

I’ve voted to reject proposal 134281. It makes claims that I see no clear way of verifying, and supporting statements regarding the ownership of the data centre are inconsistent with records held in the IC registry. The proposal was announced here.

Voted to adopt proposal 134281. This proposal is part of a sequence of steps to remove cordoned nodes from subnets as the associated data centeres are being offboarded after 48 months of their respective DC contracts that are still private and were signed up before the Genesis. There is a great and detailed explanation of this changes in this forum post and the forum thread it is in. In the wiki there is a series of Steps for Gen-1 Node onboarding after 48 months that need to be followed in order for the nodes to continue earning rewards which starts by making a forum post in the following thread. As we can verify no one as come forward with nodes from the DCs in this proposals so I don’t see any issues with the removal of this nodes.

A new proposal with id 134555 has been submitted, please take a look.

Replace nodes in subnet opn46

Motivation:
The following nodes in subnet opn46 have been cordoned and need to be removed from the subnet:

Known Neurons to follow if you're too busy to keep on top of things like this

If you found this analysis helpful and would like to follow the vote of the LORIMER known neuron in the future, consider configuring LORIMER as a followee for the Subnet Management topic.

Additional good neurons to follow:

  • D-QUORUM (a highly decentralized neuron that follows neurons that have been elected by the NNS)
  • Synapse (currently follows the LORIMER and CodeGov known neurons for Subnet Management, and is a generally well informed known neuron to follow on numerous other topics)
  • CodeGov (actively reviews and votes on Subnet Management proposals, and is well informed on numerous other technical topics)
  • WaterNeuron (the WaterNeuron DAO frequently discuss proposals like this in order to vote responsibly based on DAO consensus)

Note that this analysis involved data provided by the IC-API, which is not open source. I’m in the process of switching over to more verifiable sources of this sort of information for future proposal reviews. See here for related discussion.

Voted to adopt proposal #134555.

The proposal replaces two cordoned healthy Active status node ahbuw from the ZH5 Data Center in Zurich 5, and cordoned healthy Active status node eukqc from the SG3 Data Center in Singapore 3, with unassigned healthy Awaiting status node oaxev from Zurich 6 and with unassigned healthy Awaiting status node o2ejh from Singapore 1, without any change to the decentralization of the subnet.
The motivation makes sense and the provided Forum link included in the summary provides further info, also it can be checked here.

Voted to adopt proposal 134555.

This proposal replaces 2 nodes, due to offboarding ZH5 and SG3 data centres. Decentralisation parameters are unchanged and remain within the requirements of the target topology. Data centre details are consistent with the links provided in the proposal.

Proposal 134555

Vote: ADOPT

Replaces cordoned nodes ahbuw and eukqc with nodes oaxev and o2ejh on subnet opn46.
The reason for this proposal is to offboard ZH5 and SG3 DCs consistent with forum posts made on the forum thread used for posts regarding the renovation/sell of Gen-1 node machines by NPs.
Both the NP and DC stated in the forum post match the ones from the node being removed in the proposal.

:point_up: There’s an open proposal to make opn46 a public subnet.
