oib 06e48ef34b chore: standardize configuration, logging, and error handling across blockchain node and coordinator API
- Add infrastructure.md and workflow files to .gitignore to prevent sensitive info leaks
- Change blockchain node mempool backend default from memory to database for persistence
- Refactor blockchain node logger with StructuredLogFormatter and AuditLogger (consistent with coordinator)
- Add structured logging fields: service, module, function, line number
- Unify coordinator config with Database

AITBC Service Naming Convention

Updated Service Names (2026-02-13)

All AITBC systemd services now follow the aitbc- prefix convention for consistency and easier management.

Site A (aitbc.bubuit.net) - Production Services

Old Name New Name Port Description
blockchain-node.service aitbc-blockchain-node-1.service 8081 Blockchain Node 1
blockchain-node-2.service aitbc-blockchain-node-2.service 8082 Blockchain Node 2
blockchain-rpc.service aitbc-blockchain-rpc-1.service - RPC API for Node 1
blockchain-rpc-2.service aitbc-blockchain-rpc-2.service - RPC API for Node 2
coordinator-api.service aitbc-coordinator-api.service 8000 Coordinator API
exchange-mock-api.service aitbc-exchange-mock-api.service - Exchange Mock API

Site B (ns3 container) - Remote Node

Old Name New Name Port Description
blockchain-node.service aitbc-blockchain-node-3.service 8082 Blockchain Node 3
blockchain-rpc.service aitbc-blockchain-rpc-3.service - RPC API for Node 3

Already Compliant Services

These services already had the aitbc- prefix:

  • aitbc-exchange-api.service (port 3003)
  • aitbc-exchange.service (port 3002)
  • aitbc-miner-dashboard.service

Removed Services

  • aitbc-blockchain.service (legacy, was on port 9080)

Management Commands

Check Service Status

# Site A (via SSH)
ssh aitbc-cascade "systemctl status aitbc-blockchain-node-1.service"

# Site B (via SSH)
ssh ns3-root "incus exec aitbc -- systemctl status aitbc-blockchain-node-3.service"

Restart Services

# Site A
ssh aitbc-cascade "sudo systemctl restart aitbc-blockchain-node-1.service"

# Site B
ssh ns3-root "incus exec aitbc -- sudo systemctl restart aitbc-blockchain-node-3.service"

View Logs

# Site A
ssh aitbc-cascade "journalctl -u aitbc-blockchain-node-1.service -f"

# Site B
ssh ns3-root "incus exec aitbc -- journalctl -u aitbc-blockchain-node-3.service -f"

Service Dependencies

Blockchain Nodes

  • Node 1: /opt/blockchain-node → port 8081
  • Node 2: /opt/blockchain-node-2 → port 8082
  • Node 3: /opt/blockchain-node → port 8082 (Site B)

RPC Services

  • RPC services are companion services to the main nodes
  • They provide HTTP API endpoints for blockchain operations

Coordinator API

  • Main API for job submission, miner management, and receipts
  • Runs on localhost:8000 inside container
  • Proxied via nginx at https://aitbc.bubuit.net/api/

Benefits of Standardized Naming

  1. Clarity: Easy to identify AITBC services among system services
  2. Management: Simpler to filter and manage with wildcards (systemctl status aitbc-*)
  3. Documentation: Consistent naming across all documentation
  4. Automation: Easier scripting and automation with predictable names
  5. Debugging: Faster identification of service-related issues
