Hardware Requirements

RAM - 16 GB
CPU - 4 cores
Disk - 1 TB NVME SSD
Bandwidth - 500 MBps

Check Dependencies

Make sure that you have all the necessary modules installed, namely Golang, rustup.

Clone and Build the source code

git clone -b v0.3.3 https://github.com/0glabs/0g-storage-node.git

Build the source code:

cd 0g-storage-node
git submodule update --init

# Build in release mode
cargo build --release

Configure

After that, we need to check and put down all the missing values in the run/config.toml file

network_enr_address
network_boot_nodes = ["/ip4/54.219.26.22/udp/1234/p2p/16Uiu2HAmTVDGNhkHD98zDnJxQWu3i1FL1aFYeh9wiQTNu4pDCgps","/ip4/52.52.127.117/udp/1234/p2p/16Uiu2HAkzRjxK2gorngB1Xq84qDrT4hSVznYDHj6BkbaE4SGx9oS","/ip4/18.167.69.68/udp/1234/p2p/16Uiu2HAm2k6ua2mGgvZ8rTMV8GhpW71aVzkQWy7D37TTDuLCpgmX"]
log_contract_address
mine_contract_address
blockchain_rpc_endpoint
log_sync_start_block_number
miner_key
db_max_num_chunks

Run Storage Node

After we have changed all the parameters necessary to run the node, we can run it. This is done with the following command:

cd run

# consider using tmux in order to run in background
../target/release/zgs_node --config config-testnet.toml --miner-key <your_private_key> --blockchain-rpc-endpoint <blockchain_rpc> --db-max-num-chunks <max_chunk_num>
