Hi Damian,
would be great to have a check in DocTor that sends out an email for "there are less than 3 bw auth voting auths available"
thanks, nusenu

Let's have two different checks: "There are less than 3 bw auth votes in a consensus" "There are a large number of unmeasured relays"

Hi nusenu, hi teor. We already have a check that we have the expected bandwidth authorities...
https://gitweb.torproject.org/doctor.git/tree/consensus_health_checker.py#n5...
... and that they're reasonably in sync...

By reading today's emails from https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-consensus-health
it is not clear that we are currently with <3 bw auths - would be nice to have that. ideally with a string in the subject for easy catching in subject-based filters. https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/25222
Hi nusenu, the notice pretty clearly says that one isn't present...
"NOTICE: The following directory authorities are not reporting bandwidth scanner results: gabelmoo" https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-consensus-health/2018-February/00...
You're right that it doesn't tell you the number of authorities that vote. If you'd care to add that to the message then feel free.

(email from Tue Feb 27 07:05:55 UTC 2018)
"one" missing bw auth will not result in "<3 bw auth votes available".
2018-02-27 16:00 UTC was the first consensus on 2018-02-27 with "<3 bwauth votes".
I get the feeling that I'm annoying you so I'll try to stop that by avoiding any further such DocTor requests.
thanks for stem, nusenu

Hi nusenu, I'm not annoyed in the least - sorry if I gave that impression!
My read is that you asked for a notification when bandwidth authorities are missing, which we already have. It's a simple messaging change to say "we have X of Y" and if you'd care to send that patch I'd be happy to merge it.
Cheers! -Damian
