Monitoring stack sync progress
Both go-ethereum and lighthouse will engage in an initial chain sync phase that will last up to several hours depending on hardware performance and network capacity. Syncing can be monitored by looking for these log messages:
Jul 24 12:34:17.001 INFO Downloading historical blocks est_time: 5 days 11 hrs, speed: 14.67 slots/sec, distance: 6932481 slots (137 weeks 3 days), service: slot_notifier

Once synced up these log messages will be observed:

Clean up
Stop the stack:
$ laconic-so deployment --dir mainnet-eth-deployment stop
This leaves data volumes in place, allowing the stack to be subsequently re-started. To permanently delete the stack's data volumes run:
$ laconic-so deployment --dir mainnet-eth-deployment stop --delete-data-volumes
After deleting the volumes, any subsequent re-start will begin chain sync from cold.
Ports
It is usually necessary to expose certain container ports on one or more the host's addresses to allow incoming connections.
Any ports defined in the Docker compose file are exposed by default with random port assignments, bound to "any" interface (IP address 0.0.0.0), but the port mappings can be
customized by editing the "spec" file generated by laconic-so deploy init.
In this example, ports 8545 and 5052 have been assigned to a specific addresses/port combination on the host, while
port 40000 has been left with random assignment:
$ cat mainnet-eth-spec.yml
stack: mainnet-eth
ports:
mainnet-eth-geth-1:
- '10.10.10.10:8545:8545'
- '40000'
mainnet-eth-lighthouse-1:
- '10.10.10.10:5052:5052'
volumes:
mainnet_eth_config_data: ./data/mainnet_eth_config_data
mainnet_eth_geth_1_data: ./data/mainnet_eth_geth_1_data
mainnet_eth_lighthouse_1_data: ./data/mainnet_eth_lighthouse_1_data
In addition, a stack-wide port mapping "recipe" can be applied at the time the
laconic-so deploy init command is run, by supplying the desired recipe with the --map-ports-to-host option. The following recipes are supported:
| Recipe | Host Port Mapping |
|---|---|
| any-variable-random | Bind to 0.0.0.0 using a random port assigned at start time (default) |
| localhost-same | Bind to 127.0.0.1 using the same port number as exposed by the containers |
| any-same | Bind to 0.0.0.0 using the same port number as exposed by the containers |
| localhost-fixed-random | Bind to 127.0.0.1 using a random port number selected at the time the command is run (not checked for already in use) |
| any-fixed-random | Bind to 0.0.0.0 using a random port number selected at the time the command is run (not checked for already in use) |
Data volumes
Container data volumes are bind-mounted to specified paths in the host filesystem.
The default setup (generated by laconic-so deploy init) places the volumes in the ./data subdirectory of the deployment directory:
$ cat mainnet-eth-spec.yml
stack: mainnet-eth
ports:
mainnet-eth-geth-1:
- '10.10.10.10:8545:8545'
- '40000'
mainnet-eth-lighthouse-1:
- '10.10.10.10:5052:5052'
volumes:
mainnet_eth_config_data: ./data/mainnet_eth_config_data
mainnet_eth_geth_1_data: ./data/mainnet_eth_geth_1_data
mainnet_eth_lighthouse_1_data: ./data/mainnet_eth_lighthouse_1_data
A synced-up stack will consume around 900GB of data volume space:
