Thanks! Your upgraded relay looks good.

I've started the process of unblacklisting the fingerprint. It will need a threshold of the directory authorities to pull the update, so it could be a couple of days until it takes effect, but hopefully it will be relatively soon.

You can go to the bottom of https://consensus-health.torproject.org/#relayinfo and paste in your fingerprint or nickname to see progress.

Glenda1 and glenda2 are both dedicated VPS with 2 TB of traffic per month, exclusively for the tor project. I increased all BandwidthRate settings to the following values:

RelayBandwidthRate 1 M RelayBandwidthBurst 8 M AccountingMax 2 TB AccountingStart month 1 00:00

Looks reasonable. Be aware that some VPS providers count a byte in and a byte out as two bytes. So if that's your provider, you're on track to be double-spending for the month. See also "AccountingRule" in the man page.

What's more needed on the network? Servers, which allow high bursts and then vanish or servers, wich offer constant bandwidth, but all the time?

It depends what bandwidthrate you're offering, but I think the answer in general is "somewhere in between": pick a bandwidthrate where you'll be around at least half of the month, and then maybe you'll be around for the whole month too: https://2019.www.torproject.org/docs/faq#LimitTotalBandwidth
