Issues Detected:
  • Guard: requires Stable flag : Guard flag requires having the Stable flag first
    Suggestion: Get Stable flag by maintaining consistent uptime. Stable requires uptime and MTBF at or above network median (typically 2-3 weeks of stable running).
  • Guard: WFU below threshold : Weighted Fractional Uptime 36.6% is below 98% requirement
    Suggestion: WFU measures recent uptime (recent downtime weighs more heavily). To improve: 1) Minimize restarts, 2) Use systemd with Restart=always, 3) Monitor for OOM kills, 4) Schedule updates during low-traffic periods.
  • Not eligible for Stable flag : Uptime or MTBF below network median for most authorities
    Suggestion: Stable flag requires uptime/MTBF at or above network median. Keep your relay running continuously for 2-3 weeks. Avoid restarts. Use reliable hardware and network connection.
  • HSDir: requires Stable flag : HSDir flag requires having the Stable flag first
    Suggestion: Get Stable flag by maintaining consistent uptime. Stable requires uptime and MTBF at or above network median (typically 2-3 weeks of stable running). Avoid restarts.
  • HSDir: WFU below threshold : WFU 36.6% below 98% required for HSDir
    Suggestion: HSDir requires ≥98% WFU, Stable flag, and Time Known ≥25 hours (or ~10 days for moria1). Improve uptime consistency.
  • High consensus weight deviation : Large variation in Consensus Weight values across authorities (see 'Cons Wt' column in Per-Authority Details below)
    Suggestion: Consensus weight measurements vary significantly between authorities. This can affect traffic distribution. Ensure stable network connection and consistent bandwidth availability.
  • Tor version not recommended : Running Tor version 0.4.8.18 which is not on the recommended list.
    Suggestion: Update to the latest stable Tor version. Outdated versions may have security vulnerabilities and could eventually be rejected by the network. See torproject.org/download for latest releases.
  • File Descriptor Exhaustion : Relay ran out of file descriptors at 2026-03-15 03:00 UTC. This severely impacts connections and performance.
    Suggestion: Increase file descriptor limits: For systemd: add "LimitNOFILE=65535" to [Service] section. For shell: ulimit -n 65535. Persistent: edit /etc/security/limits.conf.
Notes:
  • Bandwidth authority measurements below majority: 3/6 bandwidth authorities measured this relay (majority is 4).

— = not tested/available • Format: relay value | authority threshold • WFU = Weighted Fractional Uptime • TK = Time Known

Bandwidth Values Explained:
Relay Reported = Your relay's self-reported bandwidth from its descriptor (observed_bandwidth). Used for flag eligibility (Guard, Fast).
Authority Measured = Bandwidth measured by authority's sbws scanner. Used for consensus weight (path selection probability).
Why different? Authorities verify your reported bandwidth independently. 6 of 9 authorities run bandwidth scanners; 3 use relay-reported values directly.
Stable Uptime (Two Data Sources):
Relay Uptime = From Onionoo API (last_restarted field). Self-reported uptime from descriptor. Same value for all authorities.
Authority Threshold = From CollecTor vote files (flag-thresholds stable-uptime). Each authority may have different thresholds.
Why two sources? Vote files contain authority thresholds but not per-relay uptime values. Onionoo aggregates relay descriptors which include uptime.
