Hello all,

I recently set up the relay zelltor.  I just got a notification that it went
down about 10 hours ago.  From what I can tell it looks like it decided to
hibernate and that it will be hibernating for the rest of the month.  I think
I may have configured something wrong because this was rather unexpected.  I
want it to hibernate at a certain point, but I do not think its reached that
threshold yet.

Arm tells me:
  Accounting (hard)
    15 MB / 250 GB
    598 KB / 250 GB
  Time to reset: 31:02:20:23

I have the following configured in torrc:
  AccountingMax: 250 GB
  AccountingStart: month 3 15:00

Tor's log files:
  [notice] Configured hibernation. This interval began 2014-10-03 15:00:00; the
           scheduled wake-up time is 2014-10-03 15:00:00; we expect to exhaust
           our quota for this interval around 2014-11-03 15:00:00 (all times
           local)

           I've sent 6.08 GB and received 6.08 GB. We are currently hibernating.

Note: I stripped the timestamps out because I am viewing these on a different
computer and had to retype them.

My ISP caps me at 500 GB up+down data per month, which is why I've capped it at
250 GB.  I was planning to adjust that down a little bit as needed when my next
month's bill came in and I got to see how much overhead Tor produces above
the 500 GB cpa.  Clearly I've come nowhere close to that though, so I don't
think my node should be hibernating yet...

Any ideas?

Thank you,
Derric Atzrott

I don't understand why it started hibernation just because it began a new interval, but I think it will start back up at a random time.

From the manual for AccountingMax:
"To prevent all servers from waking at the same time, Tor will also wait until a random point in each period before waking up."
