OK, I finally switched from litecoin-qt to litecoin-cli … hate it 
3 GB RAM wasn’t enough for Ubuntu24 Server + XRDP + Litecoin-qt, even after giving Litecoin-qt high priority (the Out-of-memory just would occur with other important processes)…
3GB RAM seems to be sufficient now; litecoind deamon process is running stable now…I don’t know much about command line nodes.
OK, but thanks to this post I learned how to extract some info about the state of the node (there is no colorful, animated, fancy progress bar in the shell )
I got incoming port 9333 open, with proven connectivity, but no active connections…
So, just to understand the current status of my node: Given the block-time of Litecoin being “2778598” and this equals headers number of ./litecoin-cli --getinfo, this means the node is online, right?
- and if
blocksnumber is belowheadersnumber means that my node is still syncing with the network or validating old block or something, right? I got a high CPU-load which would also point in this direction…
"blocks": 2342179,
"headers": 2778598,
