Hello,

I often check my relay trough Metrics, but it often appears as offline
after some time, from couple of hours to few days. I think it has this
behavior since December 20. However, my relay seems to run normally. I
have the usual number of connections when I check in Nyx. I don't see
anything in the log.
But, in Nyx, I don't see the flags that I see when it appears as online
in Metrics.
What I do is to restart the service, but I'm not sure if it's what I'm
suppose to do.

I had the same problem some days ago but only once. The relay was shown as offline on Metrics and all flags in nyx were gone. I did not saw anything strange in the logfile and a reboot did not solved the problem.

The next morning everything was back to normal.

I switched it from a non-exit to an exit the day before and was still messing around with the Exit policy so i thought it was related to this.

The issue is back. After more than 3 days, the relay appears offline. All flags are gone in nyx. There is a bug. How to be notified when there is a issue with our relay?

I believe there is something wrong with your ipv6 port.

indeed there is something wrong. I am voting against you because I cannot reach you via IPv6. A traceroute to you seems to die somewhere inside OVH:

11 th2-dsl1-a1.fr.eu (2001:41d0::b76) 12.944 ms be45.th2-dsl1a-n93.fr.eu (2001:41d0::b72) 13.035 ms 13.103 ms 12 2001:41d0:fde0:80::30 (2001:41d0:fde0:80::30) 12.637 ms 12.595 ms 12.549 ms 13 2001:41d0:fecf:8900:5ee2:8cff:fe99:f106 (2001:41d0:fecf:8900:5ee2:8cff:fe99:f106) 22.724 ms 22.759 ms 21.971 ms 14 2001:41d0:fecf:8900:5ee2:8cff:fe99:f106 (2001:41d0:fecf:8900:5ee2:8cff:fe99:f106) 3029.525 ms !H 3022.011 ms !H 3022.124 ms !H

So I would suggest removing the ipv6 stuff for a while and see if things get better for you.

And then also exploring why your ipv6 address is not consistently routable, or not consistently reachable, or whatever else is going wrong with it.

That seems quite worthwhile to figure out. Basically, your computer isn't really online right now ;)
