Hello, due to a recent power outage at where I run my relay http://torstatus.blutmagie.de/router_detail.php?FP=db1af6477bb276b6ea5e72132...
Torland at, it could possibly have lost its stable flag (not sure yet). The outage is lasting about 3 hours or so. If I had the stable flag for about 4 days then my power went out for about three hours, hoe long would that take to regain the stable flag based on mtbf? Thank you very much.

See teor's great reply from your recent thread: https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-relays/2018-April/014982.html
It's hard/impossible to give you an exact time. Please just be patient and don't sweat little things like what flags you have from day-to-day.
And thanks for running a relay!

Thank you very much. And if the relay is back online before it disappears from torstatus.blutimage.de there should be nothing lost correct?

You will lose the HSDir flag for 4 days. You might lose other flags. I'm going to point you to the previous thread for an explanation.
The flags change every hour so clients to know how to use your relay. You can't keep them all the time, and you shouldn't try. (For example, Tor security updates are more important than flags.)

I guess your right. It appears that the relay DID loose the stable flag due to the power outage lasting the entire day unfortunately. Forgive me, but the time limit for keeping the stable flag does seem a little unforgiving, it should maybe be one day or so instead of one hour. I was just thinking about it because according to the relay Conesus list, 86% percent of relays have the stable flag, making it seem like an important flag to have to be considered useful. But it is what it is I guess.
