Summary

  • Rework the execution client section of Staking Nodes around two event log retention modes:
    • Pruned mode — logs from the network checkpoint onward; enough for core Operator Service functionality (v5.1.1+).
    • Full mode — logs from the Keeper genesis block onward; required by recover, validators-exit and consolidate.
  • Table of per-network blocks for both modes (Keeper genesis blocks from sw-utils network config: Ethereum 18,470,089, Hoodi 94,074, Gnosis 34,778,552).
  • Nethermind and Reth examples for both modes; Erigon note on growing the rolling window in full mode.
  • Remove the outdated --Sync.FastSync=true flag from Nethermind examples (current and v3 prerequisites pages).

Core Operator Service functionality works with logs retained from the
network checkpoint (pruned mode), but recover, validators-exit and
consolidate still scan events from the Keeper genesis block (full mode).
Document both modes with per-network blocks and matching Nethermind,
Erigon and Reth settings, and drop the outdated --Sync.FastSync flag.
