I finally had my first Remote Force Close on one of my channels. I have a couple questions I am trying to answer. If I find the answer first I will post but wanted to use Stacker.News also to help.
Couple questions:
- I feel my node has a reasonable good up time. Can one choose force close in most node implementations even if Remote Node is "Online?
- What should a node operator check when seeing a Remote Force Close? Any due diligence needed?
- I know a watchtower will "punish" the offending node for trying to cheat but will an "Online and Synced" node take the same action for itself?
I am running and LND node.
Thanks for in advice for any helpful information
Could be too long pending HTLCs, too many pending HTLCs, you are running on Tor and even that you see your node online, is still do not broadcast in fast time your channels status.... etc
You could check with
lncli pendingchannelsto see more details about that FC

... etc
WTs are only "fact checkers" of the last state of a channel.
Where is lncli pendingchannels meant to be run from?
I am getting "command not found" message when I run it.
