— Installation
Login to your server through the client program.
enter the commands sequentially. Copy one, two or more lines at once, you will understand when you see a gray box. It will tell you how many lines to copy at once.
The server does not have the same commands as on a computer - use Ctrl + Shift + C to copy the code from client program and Ctrl + Shift + V to paste it .
The commands to enter into the client program are marked with a gray box!
USE Ctrl + C to copy the command from guide and Ctrl + Shift + V to paste them in client program
Copy and paste into the client program:
Get the Script from the Legends Back Office
Paste the script by press Ctrl + Shift + V, then press enter.
After that, you were asked to enter the key that you received when you purchased the license in Legends.
Choose the number 5 and press Enter to start the Gear installation.
The installation of the node will begin. We are waiting for the field to enter a name to appear. Write your node name and hit enter.
Node installation is very fast. at completion you should get next:
Everything is fine! Node installed!
Check the operation of the node on the site TELEMETRY
Open the website, then enter the name of your node ( without clicking on the site )
Once you open the website type the name of your node
We see our node in the list and click on it so that it is always at the top of the list of all nodes.
Save the backup to your computer. Go to the SFTP section in Termius or any other client program to see your server files.
On the left is your PC, on the right is the server. Find the secret_ed file in the network folder, file path:
root/.local/share/gear/chains/gear_staging_testnet_v5/network
The version of the gear_staging_testnet_v5 folder may differ (v5, v6, v7, etc.). Copy the secret_ed25519 file to your computer.
In the case when you transfer / reinstall the node, you will need to install the node, as it was at the very beginning of the instructions, and then wait for a successful installation and enter the command:
sudo systemctl stop gear-node
After that, transfer the secret_ed25519 file from your PC to the server to the network folder. Full path:
root/.local/share/gear/chains/gear_staging_testnet_v5/network
And run the node with the command:
sudo systemctl start gear-node
Ready! You have restored your node on your/another server.
Check the operation of your node once every 2-3 days, with commands (Entered as root, if it is not visible, then press ctrl + c or, in extreme cases, just close the client program and open it again).
1. Node activity. Status - active - everything works.
systemctl status gear-node
2. Also check the activity of the node on the site.
To do this, go to the site TELEMETRY and make sure that the number of blocks on our node matches the number of blocks on the main panel. And if you see the numbers do not match immediately after installation, this means that your node has not had time to synchronize yet (This may take several hours).
