Now you just need to separate them by 15kms 😂
A quick progress update on my new node!
I’ve now got PostgreSQL installed with replication working between the two NUCs. Eclair is also installed with a basic configuration running in a Docker container. It starts up without errors using the Postgres backend. So far all is looking good.
Next I need to get my networking sorted out. There is a slight issue with my plan for failover between the two Internet connections where it won’t failover as quickly as I would like in some situations so I need to reconsider what to do. Once that is sorted out I’ll transfer some Bitcoin and open channels.
There is definitely a much bigger learning curve building a node this way than simply using Umbrel or StartOS but it gives a lot more flexibility and understanding exactly how everything is put together is useful. Big thanks to nostr:npub137c5pd8gmhhe0njtsgwjgunc5xjr2vmzvglkgqs5sjeh972gqqxqjak37w for assistance and advice with some of the configuration! nostr:note17vvjs3zujljc0gxe9ku7ynfcvgg38nx8an4ry87a5qcru0qgamaqrpvys3
