Hi,

I tried raft recently, and ran into this strange behavior:

When I invoke peer channel create ..., I always get &{NOT_FOUND} first, then &{SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE} 4 or 5 times. After that, everything is OK, I can join the peers and update the anchor peers successfully. I get the same even if I wait 5-10 minutes before trying to create the channel, or if I reduce the number of both the peers and orderers from 3 to 1. In the orderer logs, I can see 4 or 5 warnings about rejecting deliver request for my CLI's IP because of consenter error.

This behavior does not block me and my project, but I am sure it is not expected, and I would like to know why it works this way, and how I could fix it.

Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Balazs

P.S.:

The script used to create the channel, join peers and update the anchor peers is attached.
The output of the create-join-channel.sh script:


The orderer logs:

hi Balazs,

could you attach full orderer log so we could diagnose? or pls observe orderer log to see how long it took to elect a leader, some thing similar to "Raft leader changed: 0 -> x"

thx
