getpeerinfo Response

+1 vote

We have a 3 node network with 2 nodes mining and one node just connected and replicating blocks & transactions.

When I execute getpeerinfo from one if the nodes the response differs slightly between the mining node and the replicating node:

Mining Node:

"synced_headers": 3085,
"synced_blocks": 3085,

Replicating Node:

"synced_headers": -1,
"synced_blocks": -1,

Is this intentional?  I've checked the node that is just replicating and it is fully sync'd with the other nodes when comparing the block height.

 

Cheers

Marty

It's not a cause for concern. These fields depend on the presence of certain incoming messages over that specific P2P connection, and those messages may not always be sent out in both direction.
