A Cheatsheet for the Raspiblitz

I NEED LOGS!

Output LND Log to Console:

• sudo tail -f /mnt/hdd/lnd/logs/bitcoin/mainnet/lnd.log

Output Bitcoind Logs to Console:

• sudo tail -f /mnt/hdd/bitcoin/debug.log

Output Raspiblitz Logs to Console:

• sudo tail -f /home/admin/raspiblitz.log

I NEED TO KNOW THE STATUS OF MY SERVICES!

List user services currently running:

• systemctl list-dependencies multi-user.target
• systemctl list-unit-files --type=service

I NEED TO COMPACT MY CHANNEL.DB!

1. Check Channel Size:
   • sudo du -h /mnt/hdd/lnd/data/graph/mainnet/channel.db
2. Set the auto-compat flag by copying the below:

   1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

   [bolt] # Whether the databases used within lnd should automatically be compacted on # every startup (and if the database has the configured minimum age). This is # disabled by default because it requires additional disk space to be available # during the compaction that is freed afterwards. In general compaction leads to # smaller database files. db.bolt.auto-compact=true # How long ago the last compaction of a database file must be for it to be # considered for auto compaction again. Can be set to 0 to compact on every # startup. (default: 168h) # db.bolt.auto-compact-min-age=0

3. Restart lnd:
   • systemctl restart lnd
4. **Watch logs until compacting is complete: **
   • sudo tail -f /mnt/hdd/lnd/logs/bitcoin/mainnet/lnd.log
5. Edit lnd.conf file by replacing
   • db.bolt.auto-compact=true with #db.bolt.auto-compact=true
