Our RPC nodes suddenly lost track on the RCP nodes:

[2024-02-07T05:46:22.284373328Z INFO solana_validator::bootstrap] Searching for an RPC service with shred version 56177 (Retrying: Wait for known rpc peers)... [2024-02-07T05:46:22.284457881Z INFO solana_validator::bootstrap] Total 0 RPC nodes found. 0 known, 0 blacklisted

If removing the flag --only-known-rpc, it would return no available snapshots.

Can you please help?

  • oh seems I had to specify the shred version as 50093, where can we get the valid shred version for mainnet?

So the shred is used to ensure you are on the right network. I am unsure what network shred 56177 is for, but it is not mainnet.

The correct shred number for mainnet is 50093. You can see it in the documentation for the latest cluster restart, but unfortunately, it is not in the official clusters docs.

Perhaps this is something @jacob-creech can help get sorted?
