Looks ok to me. '3' is the socket-descriptor and '0'
is the number of globally registered processes.
NB: Initially, when you start your Erlang node you don't
have any globally registered processes. Example:

unix> erl -sname hello
Erlang (BEAM) emulator version 47.4.1
 
Eshell V47.4.1  (abort with ^G)
(hello@REDACTED)1> length(global:registered_names()).
0
(hello@REDACTED)2>
