Is there a way I can find out what the current weighted mbtf is? Thank you.

 I am also wondering, does how long a relay is offline for after loosing the stable flag effect how long it takes for the relay to regain it’s stable flag? 

 

I think it is about 4 days

 

That's the HSDir flag:

but I am sure someone more knowledgeable can provide a more specific number.

 

Stable is based on weighted mean time before failure (MTBF).

 

A Stable relay must be either:

* higher than the median weighted MTBF, or

* have a weighted MTBF of more than 7 days.

 

As a quick guide, your relay should be up for 1-2 weeks to get Stable.

 

Here are the details:
